Re: Missing Registry Keys
ju.c,
I appreciate your help:-
I have done the following:-
1 Let K-Lite do it's thing and tried 'Any DVD Converter' - no change
2 Uninstalled 'Any DVD Converter' ( I use 'revo uninstaller') and
re-installed - no change
3 Uninstalled 'Any DVD Conv' and uninstalled K-Lite Codec Pk.
4 Re-installed K-Lite (which installed smoothly - no errors or 'missing
anything')
5 Re-installed 'Any DVD Conv'
6 Input a .avi file into 'Any DVD Conv' (the player still looped the
first second or so - no change)
7 Continued nevertheless to encode (having established a start and end
trim point - this time, as I dragged the 'handle' along the bar, the clip
did show, but would not run)
8 The resulting .mpg clip would still loop in the program player and not
run.
9 Both the input .avi and the trimmed output .mpg clips played just fine
when I close down Any DVD Converter, and play by default in Media Player
Classic.
So,,,,,,,,,,, I can achieve an end result, but its not right, and as you
suggest, I don't want to give up and be beaten.
At the same time, I don't want to become a burden
dfrog
PS Because I didn't understand what to do, when K-Lite setup finished and
I was given an option to configure ffdshow video decoder, & ffdshow audio
decoder, DirectVobSub and AC3FFilter - - I didn't, and presumed that these
would remain installed at default settings.
