fix bad ogms (divx5 prob)

I didn't notice the ogm-divx5 prob. but after reading yesterday about that prob i watched a movie and saw several of the bad frames. ( i think they didn't annoy me so much so i didn't think about them before.) But they are always at the same position and only one frame long. Then i ran a test and took a bad simpsons episode with a bad frame in it. i demuxed the ogm to a avi containing only the divx. and the bad frame was gone. but then i muxed the avi again into an ogm ( with avi-splitter before the ogg-multiplexer) and the bad frame was again there. maybe it is not just the method koepi uses but a container related problem ?? if anyone found a way to fix bad ogm, let me plz know as i have several movies on hd that i'd like to fix before i burn them. thx

Ah, nice to know that those results are random. No need for me to rewrite that filter chain :) *phew* several hours of unneccessary work saved, I thank you Apfel! Best regards, Koepi

i saw this problem when playing a divx502 with b-frames +ogg audio file with the DivX502 directshow filter. with divx501 dshow filter or without filter no bad frame, and with ffdshow filter no bad frame and good postprocessing :D ps: use xvid :sly:

just muxxed an avi/ac3 into ogm with graphedit manually and same prob accured. maybe tobias knows somethin'

The problem resides in divx directshow filter, not in the mux process. If you mux the video with oggmux or graphedit is the same thing; the only working solution is use ffdshow por playback, the last version available is suggested.

I did it the same way Apfelstrudl did. I had an oggmuxed file with errors, demultiplexed it, got a perfect avi, muxed (with graphedit, oggmux and combineaviogg) and had the errors again at the same place. Think we have to make one movie with ogg sound muxing it all the ways we know, after that watching and comparing them (are there errors, are the errors at the same timestamp, are te errors the same...) But therefor you will have two watch the same movie at least three times, we have to choose a good one ;) Matrix or so I thought there are only errors if you use oggmux, sorry Koepi:o , cause my graphedit files seemed to be ok, maybe I have to look more into the details. Could it be that the ogg files get damaged when putting them into the container ? Or should we go back to mp3 ?:scared: Edit: ffdshow really works, my problem movie with ffdshow for divx5 enabled had no errors. (Just to confirm your thoughts)

arf! don't mux avi and ac3 with oggmux!! first mux avi and ac3 file with nandub and now you can mux the new file with subtitles, chapters, etc.. in ogm container with oggmux. but not mux directly ac3 with oggmux !

i think nobody did....:)

@all::stupid: I am sorry that I have to post something again, ffdshow was not able to solve my problems in all movies, only the first seen part of my problem movie, another one is horrible now. This was my last post here, i am ashamed cause of posting so much crappy things...:o I think I have to go now to hide myself under the carpet:scared:

I noticed the same broken frames some month ago and it became a long thread. I switched to ffdshow and no bad frames ever appeared again. And as it seems, it only happenes when you use the DivX Playback filter. XVID filters where fine as well. First I was afraid to get problems using ffdshow, but after trying it for 2 month I'm totally satisfied. It's looking good and it has lots of features, that DivX Filter does not have.
