Hi all, I'm trying to encode a video to put on my YouTube site. It was recorded with a digital camera, and I tried to upload the raw file (335MB) to YouTube but it failed twice. So I decided to try and convert it. Firstly I tried Kdenlive, but the output file had about 1/2 a frame of video and 1 sec of audio and then cut out. Then I tried command line ffmpeg, but it complained about me not having audio codecs for mp3 or aac. I finally realised I needed to use libfaad as my audio codec, but that didn't work either, I used: "ffmpeg -i dscf0162.avi -vcodec mpeg4 -s 640x480 -acodec flac -f avi ceilidh_item.avi" and got this error: "[mpeg4 @ 0x1786350]timebase not supported by mpeg 4 standard Error while opening codec for output stream #0.0 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height". So I tried to have a go in Avidemux, but that seg faulted. So having listened to Shotofjaq recently I installed PiTiVi and gave that a go. That got the best results so far in that I got a full video but the sound kept skipping and got out of sync with the video.
I am incredibly frustrated, this shouldn't be that hard should it? Can anyone provide suggestions for what I might want to try next? Thanks, Tom
