Re: Converting pal to Avi, or is it possible?
Hey Lisa welcome to the list, I am not sure what converter would convert that file format I know switch doesn't do that, so I hope some one on list can help you with this question.

Hi everyone, I'm new to this list and have just been reading and getting a feel for the list before asking my question. I hope it will not be considered off topic or unsuitable for here. I'm totally blind and am using Windows 7 Home Premium with JAWS 12 Professional. I have some movies that are in pal format and I'm wanting to convert them to avi so they'll be smaller. Does anyone know of an accessible program that might do this? I used to use Magic DVD Ripper and I thought it would do this, but I can't find the right setting if it does, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and have a great day.

Re: Converting pal to Avi, or is it possible?
Hi Lisa, Pal is not a format, but it is just the FrameRate of your film, which in this case is 25 frames per second. I assume that these films are in dvds and that you want to rip them into an avi format. There is a couple of software that can help you. These are: dvd decrypter and VirtualDub. The first one will bring the dvd into your hard drive and the second will encode the .vob into avi, you need a vidio codec like divx or xvid for encoding and to be honest it's not so simple for a blind person to do that because there are things that we can't see like the cropping or the sinc between audio and video when all is complete. Now there are some software that claim to do all the process automatically, but I have no idea of either how they work or what their name is. hth Bye from Italy Skype: gianluca8815 On 19/11/2010 23:52, Lisa P Briones wrote: Hi all, I just re subscribed to this list after moving and losing the info and all when someone recommended it after reading this message that I posted to another list looking for help.
