Winfast PVR - audio codec?
Hello,
I am quite sucessfully using a Winfast A-180TDH Cinema card and the bundled Winfast PVR program to capture TV. After using the default mpeg2 capture configuration, I set up a new config using DivX 505 for video coding but am having a problem with the audio codec. The video is captured fine and plays back fine with the DivX player. I installed a Fraunoffer (sp?) mp3 audio codec and it shows in the Win98SE multimedia/devices/audio list but it doesn't appear in the drop-down list of audio codecs in the Winfast PVR "capture configuration" setup. Neither do some of the other (apparently) installed audio codecs. Can anyone let me know why some of the audio codecs don't appear in the Winfast PVR capture configuration setup? Better still, can anyone advise which audio codec they have used with Winfast PVR for good results and where to get it, etc.? Thanks and regards, Geoff. |

The codec's you mention may only be direct show filters.
Download AVIcodec which will list actual Audio/Video [de]coders and Direct Show filters. "Geoff Hicks" wrote in message om...

Hi,
Thanks for the hint. I will try your suggestion but am currently in Pakistan, where the connections are horribly slow. Presuming what you say is correct, can you suggest a good direct show audio filter (and where to get it)? Thanks, Geoff. "Use.Netuser.01" wrote in message ...
