i finished and saved the file as mp4, but when i opened it with Windows Media Player it had a strange 'tinselly' sound effect. like high-pitched borg

Try playing it using VLC player, to rule out any problem with the Windows Media Player codecs.

no, it's still very tinny. it's not Windows Media Player

i've uploaded a short video so you can hear it for yourselves:



i'm also having problems saving and appending videos. if i combine two videos, the second video plays with the audio from the first

fixed the tinny problem! AAC instead of MP3 audio works best for me

thanks for the advice - especially NHawk and TheWatcher

here is my first effort:

"Resize" (and "MPlayer resize") were apparently removed in version 2.6, and replaced with "swsResize".



For ease (as a total video beginner) I've been using version 2.56, as the guide at the start of this thread can be followed step-by-step with it.


Major thanks to NHawk for the guide, btw.

I've done this before, but I just spent the last hour or so messing around trying to remember how to swap out the audio from a video and replace it with some audio from another video. In this case, because the audio on Fernanda's webstream yesterday was garbled up something awful, and seemed to be interfering with saving the video clip I wanted to keep.

Currently I use Avidemux 2.6.10 (July 20, Win64 build)

So what I did - open a previous video containing the audio I want (another studio 66 vid, for this.)

Edit the start & finish points (keeping to key frames probably helps.) and then click the audio output and change to mp3 (lame)

Then click the audio tab at the top and 'save audio'. Manually add .mp3 to the filename. Save it to somewhere you can find it easily. ('my videos' maybe.)

Then close avidemux, reopen and open the video with the shit audio. Again cut the start & finish points (should match the length of the audio file above, but not necessarily necessary.)

Select 'audio' at the top again, then 'select track' and choose the .mp3 file from earlier.

Keep the video output as copy, audio output as .mp3 (or aac (faac) or whatever) and the container as mp4v2 (recorded as .flv, but I always change that. Mp4 shows as a little thumbnail in 'my videos' - .flv files don't. mp4v2 allows more lee-way for fucked up files to work better than default mp4, or something like that.)

Check the audio at the top hasn't changed back to the default audio - if it has, change it again. Then just save the video. Remember to add the .mp4 to the filename!
As the video isn't being re-encoded it should be done pretty quick.

Think that's what I did anyway. Might be of help to someone when corrupted audio fucks up videos. I had been trying to re-record using VLC (both the old and new audio vids - avidemux didn't like the new files) , using Audacity (wouldn't open the video, wanted to download something.)
Normally I'd use aac (faac) for audio output (and I might have done with this. Can't remember to be honest) but mp3 seemed to work.

Shit that you still have to manually add the .mp3/.mp4/.whatever to the end of a filename after all these years. Only program I really like though. Can be really fuckin' temperamental with opening files, so if you follow the steps above with your own vids, and it doesn't work, then it might just need some tinkering.

There's probably a far easier way of doing this, using something else, but anyway - Fernanda video done. It works. On ice for 8 weeks now.

Is this still the best/easiest video editing app? Really just need to chop down stream recordings into managable chunks for uploading. Thanks.

if you on linux then yes. but on windows theres so many more options a decent free 1 is AVS video editor

Using the latest version of avidemux which is 2.7.5, is there anyway to fix a timestamp error in a video.

I as this because every time I try to save a show I've recorded I get an error message about invalid timestamps in the file, and it fails to save correctly

Looking for an easy tool to chop down stream recordings. I used to use Avidemux back in the day, is this still ok to use (in windows)?
I have simply been using the windows photo tool recently but the tool for this is suddenly unusable (greyed out).
Thanks for help.
