View 1 RepliesI installed the MOTU ffmpeg and libav ppa in Natty beta, the installation went through ok and media players all work. But I am having problems converting MP4 to MP3 (extracting audio) with the error message that libmp3lame unknown encoder. I checked that lame and libmp3lame0 are both installed. I wonder what might have been the missing piece.

If no such application exist, then i would like to find some solution for easy conversion for these scenarios:
Mainly i keep my music collection in flac format, so i mostly care for conversion from other formats to flac.
I have spend the entire weekend trying to convert a mkv file with a DTS audio track to an AC3 audio track. I wrote a small article on it on my website with plenty of links and suggestions. I used applications like TVersity, PS3 Media Server, mkvdts2ac3 script, and avidemux. I just hope i can save someone's weekend with this. Anyway here is the link:

View 1 Replies View Relatedi am converting my DVDs into a media library. The ripping itself is no problem. (using Xilisoft dvd-rip under wine; works flawless).
when i convert to a mp4 file, with good quality, the output is always around 1.2 -1.8 gb. depending on the movie file. i tried Xvid and the size is pretty much the same. only by reduucing the pixel size etc... i get like a 600-800 mb file.
when i see other ripped movies, with about the same movie length, they getting 800mb mp4, in perfect quality, no smaller screen, pixels are great etc... is there any kind of advanced setting to it? bitrate, audio? to get down to this file size..?
I have mediatomb (0.12.0~svn2018-6ubuntu2) installed on Ubuntu Server 10.04.2 LTS which I use to serve video to my PS3 (slim version). MOst videos work fine but I have some mkv's giving me trouble.I'm trying to use mencoder to re-code the video to one that the PS3 can play. mkvinfo says the video track is Codec ID: V_MPEG4/ISO/AVC and the audio track is Codec ID: A_AC3.I used this command to convert to avi (found it in a thread on this forum):
mencoder -oac mp3lame -lameopts cbr=128 -ovc xvid -xvidencopts bitrate=1200 video.mkv -o video.avi
but the PS3 says the avi is an unsupported format.

I havev tried to play the audio with smplayer (not luck), vlc can play the audio but the pause button doesn't work so I have to listen the entire audio all the time I stop it playing. Is there any audio player capable od reproducing in the proper way this audio in ubuntu? No one of my video players totem, smplayer, realplayer or vlc are capable of playing this video: [URL]

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am in Toronto Canada and we have NTSC television. I am going to England where they use PAL. My mom's DVD player cannot read NTSC.
I have a TV show on my PVR that I want to burn to a DVD so that she can see.
I have to output the program from the PVR to my DVD recorder; I do not have the hardware to send directly to my computer.
So I believe I must follow these steps:
Rip DVD to computer
Convert to PAL format
Burn to DVD
Trying to burn with CD/DVD Creator. I can't find anything in the program (settings wise) that will automatically convert mp3 files to wav files. I used to use k3b, and it used to do that. I did try installing k3b, however I am getting glitches in the program. I don't want to covert mp3 files over to wav every time I want to burn a new cd. Does anyone have a suggestion as to another program or place to find the burn setting for encoding?

View 3 Replies View RelatedTo Ubuntu after switching from Windows Vista. So far I really like it. I am trying to convert music in wma format that I purchased on Zune to mp3 format so that I can play it in Rhythm Box and use it on a SanDisk Fuze that I recently purchased. I installed Sound Convert. Sound Convert works fine when converting wma files that were created from ripping CD's. However, it freezes when trying to convert wma files that were purchased from Zune. Also if I try to double click on one of the wma files to play it with movie player, I get an error message saying that the file is encrypted and decryption is not supported.
I did find a converter on Windows that works. However, it was a trial version that only converts 90 secs. The full version costs $25. I do not feel that I should have to pay for music that I have already paid for. The music was purchased a la carte from Zune (not with the monthly pass). Does anyone know of a workaround to free my Zune music so I can access it on Ubuntu?
The problem is the only video codec that iPod touches can playback is MP4. My Psych episodes are AVIs. I've heard of and used mencoder to change video codecs before, but I'd have no idea how to write my own script for it. What I was thinking of doing is using Avidemux to convert it? Open the AVI in adivemux Switch the video to MP4 Mpeg-4 switch the audio to MP3 lame
Honestly i'm not too firmiliar with codecs and containers but its telling me that rather than Xvid(which i think it was previously) the video codec is MP4 and the audio is MP3, and the container is AVI. First of all is this correct? Did i get the codec/container right?
Secondly will this work on my iTouch? I guess dealing with AVIs as a container is ok as long as the video codec is MP4? rather than like OGG or something? Ugh i'm so confused, i've just been rambling..
Ok. First of all do i have codecs/containers down? Am i correct with my assumptions? Second, I am correct that the CODEC is the problem, it must be MP4 to play back on the iPod? the container being AVI has nothing to do with it? (i'm basing this off of the fact that i know the only "codec" iPods can playback is MP4)
Edit: are there any other possible ways to convert an AVI to an MP4?
I copied some songs off a CD and wanted to convert them to mp3. Is there a program that I should have used to rip them that would have done that or is there a program that will convert them for me?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI need something that will convert and then burn a DVD. I have tried almost all of the options on Ubuntu including Devede, K3B, Avidemux, Qauthor, Tovid, Transmageddon, DVDstyler and probably more. None will convert to a NTSC format without trying to create a DVD menu which seems to be the problem involved in playback except for Transmageddon, but it fails to provide the bup and ifo files to go with the video files to get K3B to burn it. I'm able to make DVD's that work on computers, but I want DVD's that will play in my DVD player. Any programs other than the ones I named that can do the conversion without creating a DVD menu and create all the files needed to get K3B to burn it? If needed, I'm converting from AVI. Also,

I have tried the nwc2ly converter, but so far without any success. Any thoughts, or suggestions? You see I have a friend that has done a lot of Orthodox Music in NWC, but I want to get it into Lilypond as it will look better, and then I can easily convert to pdf, and easily change things if needed, etc. But I would rather not have to print and retype it all.

Ubuntu 10.4
I have just captured some screen-shots with GTK-RecordMyDesktop, but now I can't use them. The videos plays right in vlc and totem, but crashs Pitivi and turn into pink splotches in kdenlive. When I convert them using ffmpeg, the video turns into blue and pink splotches. Here is how I'm converting it:Code:ffmpeg -i out.ogv out2.mpgConverting it with vlc crashes the program.I never had problems like this before. I have used recordmydesktop and ffmpeg many times, but on a 32bit computer. I have a 64 pc now, running ubuntu 10.04 x64.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI converted using a simple app called sound converter to convert my mp4 vids to flac (because they were music i didn't need the picture.)
Which is bad because one of the main reasons I wanted to convert is because i thought removing video reduced the file size.
For example one file went from 6.4mb mp4 to a 19.7mb flac.
I tried converting wma to mp3 with vlc, but an error comes up this is what it says.
p, li { white-space: pre-wrap; }
Streaming / Transcoding failed:
It seems your FFMPEG (libavcodec) installation lacks the following encoder:
MPEG Audio layer 1/2/3.
Either how can I get that encoder for vlc or what else can I use to convert wma to mp3?
I'm having some problem converting an mpg file to avi. I did it with mencoder. The result was an avi file as I wanted but the image was like stretched vertically. Like this:

What can I do to convert it without the stretching?
I've seen posts with similar titles on these forums, but I know nothing about the plethora of codes out there and all those thread seem to be way over my head. I've installed ffmpeg (an unrestricted version) but I can't convert m4a audio files to mp3 audio files. I installed a package called 'libavcodec52' from synaptic because it came up in the search results for 'm4a' and its description said something about m4a and ffmpeg but still no luck..
View 9 Replies View RelatedIts no secret that flash video performance is sub-par in Ubuntu. I have a Zotac Mag HD ND01 that I have connected to my 40" LCD tv and have a minimal Ubuntu 9.10 installed running openbox and firefox/boxee/xbmc
My primary use for running a web browser is so I could watch live streaming hockey games in HD. However, thanks to Flash's performance (and yes, i've tried the latest versions, even the 091510 version in labs) in full screen mode, watching hockey is not possible because its way too choppy.
Now, on my desktop computer in my office, I can watch the same stream without issue. So, my question is, is there any way to take this live stream (which is using Flowplayer), and re-encode it on-the-fly so I can stream it to my htpc in a format it likes (such as MKV i guess, it can play 720p/1080p mkv files without issue)?
My desktop is a Core i7 920 overclocked to 4.2Ghz with 6GB DDR3 ram, so I would hope its powerful enough for the cause. Also, the desktop is running Windows 7 64bit and Ubuntu 10.04 64bit on a dual boot, so a method in either is fine.
Here's a question for audio compression nerds. I currently store music ripped form CD's in FLAC format on my HD. I would like to store them as OGG files to save space.
My quandry is this; I need to create both MP3 and OGG files. Both formats are "lossy". I imagine that each format must have different ways of deciding what to lose. Therefore, I am losing some stuff when I rip it in the first place, and converting would lose additional (and dfferent) stuff.
To give you an idea about what sounds okay to me, I believe I can tell the difference between 128 Kbps and 192, but not 192 and 256.
Am I being like the guy who waxes his headlisghts to increase gas mileage here?
I'm trying to convert my screencast to an .avi file, but when I open it... the commentary track is waaay out of sync. No matter which codec I use, it will not stop dropping frames!
View 4 Replies View Relatedim setting up an external hard drive for movies and music to connect to my ps3. the majority of the movies work just fine (they are in mpeg format). but over half of them are HD and take up somewhere in the range of 5 to 8 gigs. since ps3 only supports fat32 externally i can only have file sizes up to 4 gigs. so i need to split the oversized videos into two parts, but i dont know how to do that. ive tried using avidemux (which is a pretty cool program and actually taught me alot) but i cant seem to get a correct format that will work with the ps3. playstations website listed several formats the ps3 is supposed to recognize but none seamed to work for me (maybe i did it wrong though).
