Windows 2000 allows for avi files over 2GB. I was experiencing the same problem until I switched. It doesn't support original format AVIs over 2 Gb. The problem is with the original AVI format specification which allowed a maximum size of 2 Gb. The problem is that some programmes write files

This way there is no need to parse any strings, we don't pass any pointers, the setup routine would just be a big switch/case. This is basically the way TagItems work when passed on stack, in fact, that combined with another identical function that does float we're pretty much set.

I can do that already with CDEx but that integrates the LAME compression as well so I can go straight from a PCM Wav file to an MP3 Wav file. The only slight problem comes with larger AVIs where the file size of the AVI with uncompressed data goes over 2 Gb rendering the file non-standard

Howdy All, I just finished adding a very basic intensity stereo implementation to our encoder, using what little the ISO spec had to say on the subject as a guide. It doesn't really improve the sound much, but I suspect that this has to do with the questions I encountered (and worked around)

Well, if you want to stay under win95/98, you can use FlaskMpeg to backup your data, as it includes a built-in mpeg-2 decoder and got an avi output plugin. It helped me a lot, as I now don't have to decompress first in a big wav before re-encoding. The only slight problem is that the Windows

Hi Alex! 1) M/S stereo require both channels to switch block types simultaneously - why/how doesn't intensity? (I run intensity using long only for now.) The ISO decoder takes the block type for decoding the intensity position info from the left channel, which essentially requires both
