Guys need your help.. I have downloaded 2 movies from Torrent but unfortunately they both play upside down. I guess both are Xvid format.
Please advice how I can rotate it to normal position... Thanks in advance!!!
Uninstall all the codecs u can from ur system & download the latest version of the K-Lite Mega Codec Pack from
www.codecs.com -> Set ffdshow as ur decoder for DivX/XviD during the installation -> Then when your video is playing, you will see the FFv icon in your taskbar, double click on it and see whats wrong, you can do a lot of things and apply a lot of filters to your video in real time!
play it in KMP . . it should play fine
oh and i use .mov format with sorenson as compression codec for combustion and after effects . . it works brilliantly . i dont compress it in combustion and a.e . . i do it in sorenson itself . i think .mov is the industry standard . when thinking of presenting demo reels to companys
Yes you are right, *.mov & Macs are what most the people in the Graphics Design and Production Industry use. I have a roomie who is a Graphics Designer and he has his demo reel as a MOV file with a really high bitrate. But most of these guys do not know much about codecs and stuff, they just use the software the way it is meant to be used.
Well nowadays i'm Storing my Videos as VC-1(WMV,adopted by both HD-DVD n BluRay) and Ac3 Audio as it runs brilliantly on My Xbox 360 and also bcoz both next-gen Optical Media formats have mandatory support for it , so i won't have to re-convert my video when i do get an HD-DVD Burned
Thats kewl ... compatibility wise thats the way to go ... To be honest, there is hardly any difference between VC-1, H264 & VP70. All three are great codecs where one will beat the others at different profiles and hardware requirements. It is just a matter of convenience now.
Thanks for the info, though it sounds quite complicated to me.
I like how MPEG2 videos look, I guess they are the best quality around, but the files encoded in MPEG2 are too big. Instead, I like Xvid, it has an amazing quality too.
Most videos will look good at high bitrates! DVDs are MPEG2, and they look good cos they are encoded at almost 4-5Mbps. VCDs are encoded at 1.1Mbps. If you encode a video at 5Mbps using MPEG1 it will still look good.
But now the objectives are different:
- Bandwidth (videos over the net)
- HD Broadcasts (Satellite & fiber TV)
- Scalability (how will a video play on multiple devices, mobiles, laptops, standalone players, etc.)
- Quality (how quality scales at different profiles)
- HD Res (how much bandwidth the video requires at HD resolutions)
And many more objectives depending on who plans to implement the codec. And all the above three codecs are awesome and I am sure all three will prevail in the near future. VP70, VC-1 & H264
On2 the makers of VP62 & VP70 are expanding a lot and making a lot of acquisitions to help them gain a firm standing in the future.
Microsoft (VC-1) will use its clout to make VC-1 a standard, like you said, it works on your X360.
H264 is an Industry Standard (MPEG 4 Part 10) ... so it will have many applications by default.
Anywaz, the future is interesting ...

Hey dude .. plz tell me a good softwares for these purposes..
1. Joining and splitting avi files..
2. which software to join the videos in 3gp/mp4 formats,
amd can a software join the videos which are in different codecs and different resolutions!
Regards
1. VirtualDub Mod / NanDub / VirtualDub
2. 3gp ... its better to transcode these to avi, join them and then back to 3gp
3. mp4 - havn't really had the need to do it but you can try *www.mp4videojoiner.com/
No ... files with different codecs and resolutions cannot be merged. In fact even if it is the same audio & video codec + same resolution, they cannot be merged if they have even a slight difference in the Frame Rate (fps)
