Input AVI specification
'AVI to VCD / DVD' will encode avi files that fit the following
limitations:
Note that ¡®AVI
to VCD / DVD¡¯ only
supports 23.976, 24, 25, 29.97, 30, 50, 59.94 and 60 frames per
second. If a media file is used that has a lower or higher frame
rate than the above, and the Repeat Frame option is not used, the
¡®AVI to VCD / DVD¡¯
will play back faster or slower than normal. The Repeat Frame option
can be used for a crude frame rate conversion, but other than that,
no frame rate conversion is performed.
Also, ¡®AVI to VCD /
DVD¡¯ only supports 22.05, 32, 44.1 or 48 kHz 16-bit audio.
8-bit audio is converted to 16 bit and 22.05 kHz audio is converted
to 44.1 kHz. Other audio types are not supported and the audio from
the media file being added will not be used (the video can still
be included). If the first media file added has a certain kHz rate,
all other media files added must have the same rate or their audio
will not be used. ¡®AVI to VCD /
DVD¡¯ also converts all audio to stereo, if it is not already
stereo.
The video codec used should be compatible with DirectShow.
Note that for best quality, there are preferred values which will
not
require 'AVI to VCD / DVD' to resize or resample the input to match
VCD
specifications. The ideal values are (depending on target format):
NTSC:
Horzontal width: 352
Vertical height: 240
Frames per second: 29.97
Colour depth: 24 or 32 bits
PAL:
Horzontal width: 352
Vertical height: 288
Frames per second: 25
Colour depth: 24 or 32 bits
AUDIO (NTSC, PAL, or FILM):
44.1KHz, 16 bit, mono or stereo
If you don't know what the parameters of the video file you have
are, in
explorer, right click on the file once, then select 'Properties',
then select the tab 'Details' or 'Summary', depending on the version
of
Windows.
