Hmm, this is a bit like calling your toaster "trash" because it won't
make coffee! lav2wav is for extracting/splitting sound from a video.

Both mencoder and transcode will do this, but neither is easy.
You will probably benefitf rom reading Ralph's DVD ripping tutorial at 

http://tuxpower.f2g.net/mencoder.php

which gives a good starter as to how mencoder works.

[newbie] OT avi to mpeg?

2002-11-25 Thread Ibly Piblo
Sorry if this is OT.

Is there an avi to mpeg converter
for linux that is easy?

Already tried a few which were useless,
mjpegtools proved to be trash, as it just
spit out useless errors instead of actually
converting the file.

lav2wav Wallace_and_Gromit.The_Wrong_Trousers.en.avi
++ WARN: Input file
Wallace_and_Gromit.The_Wrong_Trousers.en.avi is not in
 JPEG 4:2:2 or 4:2:0 format
**ERROR: File
Wallace_and_Gromit.The_Wrong_Trousers.en.avi has
23.976000 frames/sec, choose norm with +[np] param

This tells me nothing, and it did not convert
the file.

I hope that there are some better ones
out there.

Thanks.

I'd suggest you go to www.freshmeat.net and do a search there. It's
amazing what stuff you can find there.
