Hi Bernie, I did a little research and math. (1) The original video was recorded with a "Canovision 8" camcorder purchased in the mid-80s. The spec says the CCD is 1/3 inch with 320k pixels. This particular camera was made for the US (American) market, and it has a simple RCA one vido and one RC

Hallo, the workaround I did use was playing back the file without sound. So a command like that should work: glav -a 0 output.avi If that works you can go. If the /dev/dsp does not exist try loading the kernel module snd-pcm-oss using a command like that: modprobe snd-pcm-oss You should find

Hallo, my fault. You have a .wav file an need to add that to the video file. So you can skip this command: cat audio.wav | mp2enc -v 2 -V -o sound.mp2 And just use that command: lavaddwav video_without_sound.avi audio.wav output.avi I hope that works. Regards, Bernhard Janos G Komaromi wrote:

Hi Janos, I know I'm coming into this discussion a bit late but what kind of editing do you need to do on the files? If it's just "topping and tailing" - extracting specific timed sections out of the capture files and encoding them to another file - then the way I do it is with ffmpeg using s

Hallo, Sorry for the delay. When you want to convert the file so you can edit it with glav, you need to change the commands a little bit so glav understand the AVI. You need to create a intermediate AVI file: mkfifo stream.yuv cat stream.yuv │ yuvscaler -O SVCD │ yuv2lav -q 90 -f a -o video_
