How to view a file .avi with Irfanview that asks for H264 on Win98
On 29 May 2013, Robert Macy wrote:
I just ran avidemux on the WinXP. Worked PERFECTLY for these security cam videos and easily step either direction, BUT! can't change image size?! can change control window size, but not the image size. Oh well it does do what I want and the images off my cameras are large enough so will work/function. Well if you have the still images, simply open them in IrfanView and use "ImageResize/Resample..." from the menu. It may well do a better job at resizing the images than most video players would anyway. I tried to view an .avi from a realtor that I got years ago when we were house hunting. The image pops into the screen, but when you hit play, the program announces it's creating a 'rash' file and quits! Can't view these avi videos go figure, I used to watch them on the Win98 and now these old avi's won't view on the avidemux on the WinXP. I haven't much experience with avidemux. However I do make much use of VirtualDub (http://www.virtualdub.org/) which runs on Windows 98. I've used it before to grab frames from video using the "Copy Source Frame to Clipboard" option in the "Video" menu and it worked quite well. You will need a codec for it to work though. Xvid (http://www.xvid.org/) is a popular Freeware one, and supposably supports 98. With that installed, the Windows Media Player interface in IrfanView should work too, as well as Media Player Classic. Ffdshow Tryouts (http://ffdshow-tryout.sourceforge.net/) has the same decoders in it that VLC uses, but they are able to be used as codecs (hence work in IrfanView, MPC, VirtualDub etc.). I'm prety sure I've tried and failed to install it on 98 though. Perhaps KernelEx would help... -- __ __ #_ |\| | _# |

I have Win98SE, which won't run Adobe's Acrobat 6 which specifically states it will run on Win98SE, so don't know what the OS actually is. maybe half way between. But VLC is installed, yet Irfanview wouldn't view the avi. And, VLC simply locked up the system. Forgot what works best, but has frame forward and frame reverse, which none of the others had. I needed the frame step characteristic for viewing security tapes. |

View a file .avi with News MediaCodec.org
..snip...excellent information
Thank you for this wealth of information! I checked and found an older copy of AnyVideoConverter, [16MB] circa July 2010 installed back when I was trying to view other videos. I had tried that version of AnyVideoConvert at the time and it failed miserably on this machine. My machine has not changed since then [I think, perhaps kernel got installed] Are you certain that later versions of AnyVideoConverter would work better? Seems to me the bloated code, going from 16MB to 31+Mb, would be more to address WinXP, etc. |
