Sorry about this. I should have kept the references. > Camera == DV isn't it? > Yes! > There are several problems with (dv in) avi container.

Thanks for these valuable information, too. After playing with kino and getting a different kind of error message (something like "audio mode not supported by import module") after converting the file format to raw DV as you suggested, I figured that instead of direct stream copying the audio, if I try to convert it to PCM uncompressed with 1024 kbps (which is exactly the input format BTW), everything works! Can you believe it? I don't believe transcode is even converting audio format at all, since the input and output audio formats are identical; however because of some bug in direct stream copy option, I believe, that sort of order is not working. Here is the final command line that did the job: transcode -i "/home/hakova/Video/x.avi" -y xvid4 -I 3 -C 3 -N 0x1 -b 1024 -o "/home/hakova/Video/Ozel/xXviD.avi" Thanks again for responding with lots of valuable information and inspiring the solution.
