Did you do anything special with avidemux? I finally got MC-TV Converter working just fine but when I cut using avidemux, leave the settings at copy and put the output to mp4, the audio sync is off a little. I know there is an offset setting, but didn't know if there was a better way to set it up so it didn't happen.

No, not really. I did have that occur on one of my videos but realized later I had forgotten to change the last setting to match my output format.

Just remember - size *IS* related to quality. If at the smaller sizes you saw "artifacts" that you no longer see (at the larger sizes), that is a part of the trade-off!hipsterdoofus wrote: Yeah it was weird - it ran it but didn't come up with usable output. I ran it again today with the java path in and it completed. I'm very happy with the quality of the output. I used avidemux to cut commercials. The only thing is I wish the file size was a little smaller - using mce-buddy the file size was pretty small. I assume there are settings to tweak if you wanted to make the file size smaller. Other than that I like it.

Question for any of you who have converted anything to WTV...
I've tried using MCEBuddy and ffmpeg (latest Windows build as of today's date) to convert various files into mpeg2video or h264 (tried both) with the "wtv" format (ffmpeg -vcodec mpeg2video or -vcodec h264 -f wtv -acodec ac3) and no-matter which vcodec or which video bitrate I choose, I always end up with a video that "freezes" anywhere between 5 & 10 minutes in. If I skip back, forward, or stop/resume, it plays for another 5-10 minutes and then freezes again.
It only happens on my xbox360 extenders. Regular PC playback is fine.
I've tried removing all codecs but the native Windows stuff with no change. Any ideas at all?
Windows 7 64bit HTPC backend.
PS - Also tried ASF container with .dvr-ms extensions with the same results.
Any ideas?
