How to view a file .avi with Irfanview that asks for H264 on Win98

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... -- __ __ #_ |\| | _# |
