Managed to get the issue resolved in the end by sourcing a pc based program to play the files on my machine, then used a mix of virtualdub and wmm to encode them back out as avi.

Alls good now 🙂

Hello all,

I seem to have a similar problem using SVP – I was given some video files from a cctv system, that have a GAVC codec.
Try as I might I just cannot import them into SVP and at this stage I’m pulling out what hair I have left.
If it helps – here’s the media info below:

Hi guys,

Just wondering if there were any replies to this post as I’m about to purchase 2 avchd cameras and use Vegas also.
It would be a little off putting if this was going to be an issue with Vegas alone.
Eitherways hope one of the many genius’s on here finds an answer and best of luck.

Cheers

Too true Steve 😉

At least there’s a great place like this to learn and share knowledge. I have browsed here a few times before and have been increasinlgy drawn to it. It truly is a wonderful resource for tips on all manner of things video/sware/equipment.

My level of knowledge is realistically and practically increasing due to this ‘happy sharing of brainpower’. Right on the nut.
My expertise may only extend to making tea, but one day, maybe one day….

Thanks to all again for such a nice welcome.
The kettles on.

Hello again

Thanks for that tip Rob.
I found that from recollection, I had run the avi’s through Virtual Dub with a light filter then rendered as HuffyUV Lossless – obviously in an attempt to keep the image as clean as possible.
When I ran Gspot – thats all I needed to know – so I installed the FFshow and the codec as above and bingo! all the files now line up!

This has made a young man growing old feel a lot younger.
Thank you once again for all the help and prompt response.
And no thanks to the old win32/virut – I have never seen such a ferocious pig in all my life…

Keep well all – now my top bookmark for all.

Hello again

Thanks for that Rob.
The original files are going to be fun – the infected machine that I’m taking all from – has the files on it.
As they were stopmotion animation, I had previously processed some in virtual dub and some other programs – so the list of codecs goes wild from here – huffy, etc, etc.
I did install the ffdshow – but perhaps selected the wrong format (as you have guided me now correctly).
I’ll uninstall said app and try once more.

Thank you for the swift and knowledgeable response

Steve
