Re: [Mjpeg-users] Glav errors - Wey-hey!
Hallo Good news at last! With help from the Mandrake list we tracked down the xawtv problem. I was given an example of the home dir. .xawtv entry, and I created mine from that - it was originally blank. Now xawtv can play material streamed from my camcorder, and LVS can play back avi files. Fine :) Now I can really start to learn about the possibilities of LVS. Can I, for instance, open an existing avi and do the scene-splitting? It looks as though maybe I have to create an eli first, but I can't see how to do it on an existing file. I know I can go back to glav if I need to. After recording you can do a scendetection, or on the commandline with that command: lav2yuv -S list.eli file.avi Cutting the videos is not possible in LVS. For that you have glav. I am gradually finding my way around LVS. The one problem I have found now is that if I try to play scenes from the edit tab (after scene detection) I get a rainbow coloured multi-line display instead of the picture. The file plays back perfectly in Playback, so I assume that I have a setting wrongly configured. Any suggestions, plase? Have you tried unloading (New editlist) the scene list and loaded (open editlist) it ? auf hoffentlich bald, Berni the Chaos of Woodquarter Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] www: http://www.lysator.liu.se/~gz/bernhard --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by OSTG.

I then tried again: glav -p H /Data/mulan.avi ++: **ERROR: [lavplay] Error requesting buffers: Invalid argument ++: **ERROR: [lavplay] Error reading video frame: avilib - Error reading from AVI file - Bad address ++: lavtools version 1.6.1.93 I tried launching xawtv. I got a message that it couldn't find any tv card. I then closed it. Nothing changed. I did check with another file, just in case there was a corruption, but that was the same. I've tried everything I can think of, but I still keep getting that 'Bad address' message. What's causing it, please?
