Windows XP ffmpeg.exe

Windows XP ffmpeg.exe

-

normally i use linux with ffmpeg and mENCODER to convert video into [xvid - avi] but it can be done with windows XP.

-

download pspvideo9

install pspvideo9
and then click my computer and browse the the program folder till you find the folder with ffmpeg in it. drag a copy of the ffmpeg folder to your desk top.

-

also grab a copy of cmd.exe from yor system folder and place it in the ffmpeg folder.

-

place video in the ffmpeg folder . -

click on cmd.exe it will bring up a command shell that you can type into.
@command line.

ffmpeg.exe -i inputfile.avi -vcodec xvid -vtag XVID -s 320x240 -r 23.98 -b 592 -maxrate 728 -qmin 3 -qmax 3 -mbd 2 -acodec mp3 -ab 192 -ar 48000 NEW-VIDEO-XVID.AVI
ffmpeg runs in emulation on windows

I only used it a few time on windows it works if you wont to view the video your going to need a player like vlc video lan client or mplayer.

-

another free video tool that works with ffmpeg is super do a google search for [super and flv]

super uses ffmpeg and mENCODER.
Mencoder can be used to copy video made by ffmpeg. i use mencoder to fix audio sync and the codec header.

@commandline

mencoder.exe old-video.AVI -ovc copy -oac copy -o new-video-xvid-XVID.avi -ffourcc XVID
NOTE: -fforcc XVID will make the codec header xvid in capt XVID when i use linux ffmpeg only vtags the video in lowercase xvid and some of my players will not play the video. so i run Mencder on the video to fix it. -

so before you buy $$ a video encoder try some of the free ones you don't need the gui's their just front ends for ffmpeg command line or some other command line encoder. #
I don't test a lot of widows apps but " pspvideo9 and super " are keepers because i like using ffmpeg and mENCODER. but i to lazy to build them from source.
