What is x264 all about?
541741
x264 is a free library for encoding H.264/MPEG-4 AVC video streams. The code is written by Loren Merritt, Laurent Aimar, Eric Petit, Min Chen, Justin Clay, Måns Rullgård, Radek Czyz, Alex Izvorski, Alex Wright, and Christian Heine from scratch. It is released under the terms of the GNU General Public License, but this license may be incompatible with the MPEG-LA patent licenses in jurisdictions that recognize software patents.\n\nx264 is available as a Video for Windows codec and in a command line interface. The command line version is always up-to-date, whereas the Video For Windows version may sometimes be lacking extra features, and currently requires hacks to handle B frames. Several graphical user interfaces have been made for the command line version, including MeGUI, AutoAC and a .NET (1.1) based x264CLI GUI.\n\nx264 has a strong user community based at Doom9 where discussions for improved development take place.\n\nIf you want to play this format. Just download KLite Mega Codec Pack at http://free-codecs.com/download/K_Lite_Mega_Codec_Pack.htm They have the latest version of x264.

Good day. It is hard to convert ASX to Mpeg but it is better to convert ASX to WMV. ASX Is like live streaming so whatever program u use have to download the file and save it as a wmv file so yur media player can play. I recommend WM Recorder by Applian technologies. Have to buy tho but if u kno how to use P2P Programs, u can get it free. Laterz.

I am not the best at this stuff but look at sites giving multiregional hacks or codes.I did my Philips DVP3500 and it worked great. Get the free ones, some people try to charge. Just put in make and model of DVD followed by "hack" or "multinational code"Good luck.

MPEG-4 Part 14 or *.mp4, is a file format (a so called container) specified as a part of the ISO/IEC MPEG-4 international standard. It is used to store media types defined by the ISO/IEC Moving Picture Experts Group, and can be used to store other media types as well. It is, or will be, typically used to store data in files, though it will be used in data streams and possibly in other ways. \n\nMP3 is an acronym for MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 audio layer 3. MP3 is the file extension for MPEGaudio layer 3. Layer 3 is one of three coding schemes (layer 1, layer 2 and layer 3) for the compression of audio signals. Layer 3 uses perceptual audio coding and psychoacoustic compression to remove all superfluous information (more specifically, the redundant and irrelevant parts of a sound signal. The stuff the human ear doesn't hear anyway).

need codecs, depends what was used to encode it, try different codec packs, most common are Divx. search codec bundles.

bitrates, do you know what bitrate the program set on high is?by lower quality, what do you mean, disc quality or burn speed or capture encoding rates?

search for free codec packag. divx.com has the most relevant try that first and if not you can get others.

You have to see what kind of codec it was encoded with.\n\nhttp://www.ciscounitytools.com/App_CodecChecker.htm\n\nDownload the codec, watch the movie. Nimo codec pack is cool too.

MPEG audio Layer-3 is correct. It is used to compress the file size.

sounds like maybe a codec problem. codecs are files/programs that decrypt the video into a playable/viewable format and there are hundreds out there, but if you install k lite mega codec pack(just type it in your browser-should find it) that may well sort you out :-)

I searched ...I couldn't find...any idea about the make...then you can search...winXp normally finds its own drivers for most of the video & audio

Actually, the Win32 API supported (and still supports for backward compatibility) media APIs that weren't COM (Component Object Model) oriented.\n\nThe Media Device functions and the Video for Windows APIs were used for playing / converting video as well as video capture and the MultiMedia functions (MCI functions) were useful for playing / recording / compressing audio data and playing MIDI.\n\nThe header file for Video for Windows is "VFW.H" if you want to look at the functions and structures (then cross-reference them to the MSDN documentation).  The multimedia APIs can be found in MMSYSTEM.H.

Go to www.free-codecs.com to get the all-in-one codecs called k-lite mega codecs 1.51. It's freeware.

Hi, It is a easy yet tricky process if your new to such conversion. Usually to get a DVD 4GB+ to fit on a CD (700MB), you would need some sort of encoding.\n\nThe only step that I know of that 99% of the professionals are using is to encode it by using XVID. XVID is a video encoding scheme. Inorder to understand it you need to read the links in the bottom. You can save 50% of the space using this scheme.\n\nThe next step is to encode the sound to a high quality yet low space usage. Professionals use AC3 codec. That is VBR bitrate.\n\nOkay once you use these both codecs you will have the quality down to 1CDR to 2CDR depending on how well you are making the sound.\n\nPlease take a look at the links in the bottom for detailed instructions setop by step on how to do it with free existing programs. It is simply by pressing go and the program will do it for you :)\n\nEnjoy

codec missing......\nDownlaod "real alternative".It is less in size and u canplay almos t all types of videos. Here is the link.\nhttp://www.digital-digest.com/dvd/downloads/showsoftware_powerdvd_48.html

in depends on the encoding software you use, you can visit some sites for further explanation on this topic, for example: http://www.dvdhelp.com

FFMPEG is a video and audio encoding / decoding open source program. To use it, you need to download the source, compile it (which will also compile the required libraries) and then run the generated binaries on the audio / video files to do what you want to do.\n\nUnder Windows, you need to have MinGW Tools installed to be able to compile FFMPEG. Read http://ffmpeg.sourceforge.net/faq.html#SEC21\n\nUnder Linux, of course you use the "make" command to compile.\n\nIf you are an experienced C++ developer, compiling and installing should not be such a problem. If not, then I would recommend using MPlayer at the URL given below. It comes with an inbuilt media player and encoder. It is also open source runs on the command line. But it is an amazing tool. Try it when you get the time. Click on the second link below.
