Re: glav error opening .avi file

Hallo,

I digged it up from a older mail:
Stream #0:0: Video: mpeg4 (Advanced Simple Profile) (XVID /
0x44495658),
yuv420p, 800x592 [SAR 1:1 DAR 50:37], 896 kb/s, 30 fps, 30 tbr, 30 tbn,

I'm not sure what kind source you have: because the size is with 800x592 
a little bit strange. That is neither PAL not NTSC or SECAM

If you want to encode the result for video please try a command like 
that assuming you have a 4:3 source:
 > cat stream.yuv │ yuvscaler -O DVD | yuv2lav -I 0 -q 90 -f q -o
video_without_sound.qt &

Depending on the source video you might need to add the -n p/s/n 
p=pal,s=secam,n=ntsc switch to yuvscaler.

If it lookes strange please add the output from the commands to the 
mail. Add to yuvscaler and yuv2lav: -v 2 so the output is more verbose.
