I am hoping to get a tv out video card (very basic kind) and connect with my Win XP pro system. Am I correct to assume that what ever is displayed on my, will display on my tv?
More specifically, If I am playing a PAL movie via a player such as VLC (and it plays fine on the pc) on a NTSC tv, will it come out in roughly the same quality as what I would see on the PC?
In addition, is there anything "special" that I need to consider in my plan of using a basic video card and the vlc player and a basic tv to view such videos?
My end goal is to view PAL videos on the tv in an very economical way.....
Thanks for your help!!!!!!!

Can someone help me I captured a couple of family videos to my hard drive with NERO a while ago and was going to wait until I had enough to make a DVD what a mistake because now after I captured a few more I was going to watch and burn all captured videos and one of my videos gives me this message (the video was there and worked when I first captured it.) Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The Player might not support the file type or might not support the codec that was used to compress the file. All the other videos that have been captured with the same programs work and play. When I go to web help this is a small part of what it says. You've encountered error message C00D1199 while using Windows Media Player. If anyone can help me figure out how to get this burnt on a DVD that can be watched on my DVD player I would really be grateful thanks in advance Mike Brought my LG DVD 2250 to LG service center for firmware upgrade.I wanted to activate the unit's all region function.I was not able to hack since I read in the forum that this model needs firmware upgrade to be able to play multi-region disc and vcd.
The upgrade was successfull since we were able to play DVD region #2,and #3 however there was no video output on the tv..only audio
Is there a way I can use again my LG dvd player?

Hi, There has got to be a way.
I tried opening the .mov in TMPGEnc, then saving project, then VFAPI to VirtualDub, but TMPGEnc has problems with Quicktime's variable framerate, so the video results in jerkey playback.
I suppose you could do it with Bink, and the video server package. But that doesn't work to well.
I tried outputting an AVI as cinepack, from Quicktime Pro, at the highest quality, just to find out how bad it looked.
So I just want to frameserve from Quicktime Pro (or any quicktime decoder), to VirtualDub.
Maybe was could make a AVISynth decoder for Quicktime movies?

Did it work? It doesn't look like it... Any pointers? It is supposed to work on amd64 and I don't see any bugs.
All I'm wanting to do is to capture my VHS family videos to disks.
Is there really much clarity advantage in burning DVD as opposed to SVCD(or even fast bitrate VCD)??
Keeping in mind I have no interest in chaptering, etc....what advantages are there in doing DVD over the others, please.
thank you
(I guess I need to be educated)
Hey guys, i did a search here on how to convert divx3 to divx5 but found nothing.
Here is my sitaution-
I have about 80+ video files with DIVX3 codec that i need to update to DIVX5. Reason being is that i just got a 360 elite, and it supports divx and wmv playback. So is there any easier way to convert from divx3 to divx5 other then using apps like tmpgenc, or even divx's own converter. This will take forever having to convert 80+ videos.
Thanks for any and all input!
Hi,
I have a largeish AVI which I want to divide up into 10mb viewable chunks. i.e. each avi is 10mb and can be viewed therefore you don't need all the pieces to see the video.
Virtual Dub can do chunks down to 50mb but no lower. I have seen avi's chunked in this way down to 10mb and lower size pieces.
So which package does it, or do I have to save them manually in Virtual Dub?
whats the best way to edit music video audio because i cant get it to sond good like the ones i use to download off the net the
