Title: MNG2AVI
Post by: MK on May 12, 2024, 11:22:15 am

Hi !!!
Back to the BYOAC forums after decades  :cheers:
I've read on the wiki there are a coupe of MNG2AVI utilities.
https://wiki.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/Utilities#Video_Tools

I know MNG is a thing of the past and current MAME versions support output both video/audio to AVI.
However, I want to convert some inp files I've made with very old MAME versions, back when we had to write separate MNG/WAV files, and I wanted to try the MNG2AVI tools.

Unfortunately the links to download them are not working anymore.
To anyone who maybe kept a copy of these tools, can you please share here as a file attachment maybe?
Or if you know alternate place where I can download them from, please let me know.

Thanks!!!

Very helpful, thanks Scott.
I now have to understand why audio and video are out of sync, but other than that, the utility works well (SilverFox's).

FYI thank you for the post, I thought I had lost those files forever.
