hi guys,

i've been trying to make a VCD out of an asf file

my first time here. i've been reading this site over the past few days. i had an asf file to convert to avi , i used VDub 14.c but it does not work, much to my frustration!! i managed to get hold of WINMPG video convert. i successfully converted the asf file to a avi file, what it also did, which i didn't know was put the audio as a seperate file too.

I was ready to convert the avi mpeg 1. im using TMPEnc 2.5 which i downloaded from chickenman's tutorial.

under input file i put the avi file which is fine. but when i put the audio source which is the seperate audio track WINMPG gave me, i got this error:

TMPGEnc

"filename_Audio.avi" can not open, or unsupported

any ideas what i can do next? please do not ask me to use earlier versions of VDUB because it don't work, i tried. i keep getting all sorts of errors like "cannot find data chunk" its really frustrating which is why i was happy to use WINMPG, but i didn't know it would seperate the audio.

is it a case of changing the audio track to a different extention perhaps?

i have succesfully made a VCD from avi to mpeg using TMPGEnc and nero, but i didn't know asf will be a hassle. also if i use TMPGEnc to convert the asf file to mpeg, it takes 10 hours!! i'm not waiting that long!!


please advise me what to do

many thanks
