 |
|
I'm trying to convert a series of AVI files to MP4 files. My specific code is (the following is a subset of a script to process all AVI files in a directory):
| Code: | | mencoder "${inputFile}" -o "${inputFile%.*}.mp4" -oac copy -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg1video -of mpeg |
However, running this code produces:
| Code: | [mpeg1video @ 0x7fbac44f5c00]AVFrame.format is not set
[mpeg1video @ 0x7fbac44f5c00]AVFrame.width or height is not set |
This is repeated constantly until the whole video is complete. The AVI is from a DVD ripped by dvd::rip. Looking for the problem online has so far shown mostly internal (and non dvd::rip) related issues on bugzillas. |

I'd use ffmpeg to convert them instead.
Also, using MPEG1 for video? I'm curious why.
| Code: |
ffmpeg -i source.avi -acodec copy -vcodec mpeg1video testing.mp4

| I'm afraid I can't recall where i found it now. I'm far from even an amateur on working with a/v and came across it somewhere (I'm thinking the code used by dvd::rip, which I've since found to be a fairly antiquated application). I found Handbrake has suited my needs well (though I had to re-rip). I'll keep this in mind for future use, though. Thanks! |

Yeah, HandBrake is great. Let us know if you have any issues there, as well. Have fun.
