Hi,

Please can someone help. I've got some nsv files that I need to edit. To start with I converted them to AVI using mencoder and the method described here

http://stream-recorder.com/forum/convert...235.html?p=1668

So I now have some AVI files that I can play happily in all the media players I've tried. I now need to edit them.

I've never done any video editing before but from reading this site I've tried VirtualDub. When I try to load the file in VirtualDub I receive the error

"Couldn't locate decompressor for format "FMP4" (unknown)

VirtualDub requires a Video for Windows (VFW) compatible codec to decompress video. Directshow codecs, such as those used by Windows Media Player, are not suitable"

I've downloaded and install FFDShow, as recommended by a google result on the error, but that makes no difference.

Can any one help me with a way round this? Either to get VirtualDub to open the AVI, or another piece of editing software that will do the job. All I need to do is chop snippets from the AVI and correct audio sync.

Thanks for any help.

Toasties

Try Start Menu, click on the FFDShow, 'VFW configuration' selection in the and use the 'Decoder' tab.
