Re: glav error opening .avi file

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_without_sound.avi &
mplayer -nosound -noframedrop -vo yuv4mpeg ezcap0001.avi

mplayer -vo null -ao pcm:file=audio.wav ezcap0001.avi
cat audio.wav │ mp2enc -v 2 -V -o sound.mp2

You need than to add the sound/audio to the video:
lavaddwav video_without_sound.avi sound.mp2 output.avi

If the avi file reaches the 2GB Filesizelimit you should change to the 
Quicktime. You need to replace the yuv2lav option -f a with: -f q

output.avi contains video and sound, you can edit it with glav.
After editing you get the edilist file, you can process as you are used. 
to.
