Try opening virtualdub, opening the Xvid video compression, clicking on Set defaults and then retrying... If they still don't work, post with more info here - or even zip all the pngs for a game that does not work - along with the .vdb file - and email them to me: Silver@silverfoxy.plus.com VaporTrx is a resolution problem. @Buddabing VaporTrx creates PNGs at 511x256. The 'capbowl' fix will work for this one. On this note (geeky tech bit coming up) - the odd-resolution error is to do with MPEG4 compression (not just Xvid) and due to Macroblock pixel sizes. Xvid appears to 'deal' with sizes down to 2x2, which basically means it does not seem to like resolutions that are not divisible by 2 (all the ones that fail so far have an odd number of pixels in x or y, and the fix supplied simply knocks one pixel off x or y to make it even.) I'd like to test this more, but you may prefer to simply check for an Even number of pixels and adjust if they are odd - this would future-proof the fix I believe. If that does not make sense, I'll supply more info and examples..... Note you have to go by the size of png. Vaportrx reports that it is 512x400 size, but the pngs are all 511x256...... --- End quote --- I think it makes better sense to chop 1 pixel off the odd-sized pngs. I'll do that. |

Thanks Silver resetting my desktop size and color depth appears to have moved me past the recent rash of -100 errors I was getting. I'll go back and retry the above games later but I think those were a different issue. My desktop resolution/color depth changed after I was playing some games last night and I didn't realize it mattered but the above listed problems ocurred under normal desktop settings I think. |

I was trying to edit the batch.bat file so that the videos get saved in a separate directory rather than the mame root directory. I was wondering if someone could help me out with the changes I need to make. Thanks! |
| Silver:
The avi destination is actually set in the *.vdb files that Buddabing's Mame creates, not the bat. I presume he just fills in the current mame dir as destination directory. The easiest solution will be for you to add this line to the batch file, say after the '@del snap\*.png' line: @move /Y %1.avi c:\mame\attractmovies Obviously put your desired directory as desired. Note that you will have to create the directory manually first. The /Y option will overwrite any existing avi file, so I suggest you also alter the 1st line of the batch so that: @if exist %1.avi goto end becomes @if exist c:\mame\attractmovies\%1.avi goto end This will skip the creation if you have already made some avis. |

Last line in batch.bat (before :end) should be: move *.AVI c:\destination path\ try that. |
