What AVI codecs does EMC9 recognise?  

I have just started to use WinAVI video convertor and when I encode to AVI there is a list of encoding codecs to choose from.

DV, divx and xvid for sure.  Some people have had problems at times with the files their camcorders pop out but there's usually a way to rectify that.
What other codecs does WinAVI list?

As you know from our previous correspondance I had and still have the DivX/XVid problem. I am not trying the fix suggested by M Tolman in http://forums.suppor...?showtopic=8841 as, so far, apart from a few minor glitches EMC9 runs ok at the moment. I am trying to import AVI files in a format other than DivX & Xvid that my EMC9 will accept (hopefully Roxio will produce a patch that will address this issue)

The choice of AVI codecs in WinAVI is considerable........here we go:-

Xvid MPEG-4
WMVideo
Tech Smith Screen Capture
Roxio MPEG 1
Roxio MPEG 2
MS Screen
MA Screen 9
MJPEG Compressor
Microsoft Video 1
Microsoft MPEG-4 Video Codecs V1,V2,V3
Intel (various)
DV Video
DivX 6.4.0
DivX MPEG-4 low-motion
DivXMPEG-4 fast motion
Cinepak by Radius
Various ZJ Media encoders (WinAVI universal)



Quite a list.

Any ideas?

Brian, is the  goal to find a suitable option other than divx because you can't use it?  If so, I'd stick with mpeg or dv-avi (DV Video).  The latter will yield much larger files but since it's not compressed, will be easier to work with.

Yes I want a non- DivX option.

So I'll try what you suggest.

Thanks.

when convert to avi,select these for encoder:
video : Xvid Mpeg4 Codec
