Virtual Dub

i was trying to combine a few .avi’s I have with virtual dub but when I try it comes up with:
Couldn’t locate decompressor for format 'XVID' (unknown)
Virtual dub requires a video for windows (VFW) compatible codec to decompress video.

I’ve installed the codec for VFW all ready though.
Please help

thanks heaps man

sry for the double post but i didnt know how to edit my old one.
any way i got to the point where i was going to join the avi’s up but it says
The video streams do not share a common sampling rate.
How do i fix this

you can use a program like RiverPast Video Cleaner.

really simple program.

and you can change avi to mpeg.
and others.

If you try to merge two video files for convertion you may use any video converter you want like WinAvi or Cucusoft or VSO ConvertX to DVD just add one or more files and the software is doing the rest of the job. Any trial version is going to watermark your video file. Good Luck
