Billkwando · 12-14-2008, 12:27 PM

I'm working on a few new DTX files (my first) and I CANNOT get the videos to display in DTXMania, even though I'm using the newest divx and resizing them to the right size.

Getting that far was already hell, basically, cos Virtualdub/vdubmod chokes and crashes left and right (demuxing VBR videos was a beeyatch too). I ended up using a program called QuickMediaConverter. It converts the video to avi and will resize to the specified dimensions, but it ruins the aspect ratio and the video STILL won't show in the dtxcreator previews.

Does anybody have a tested method and/or tools they can suggest? I've literally been working at it for 12 hours straight (obsessive much?) and I haven't gotten anywhere.

Thanks!

Edit: Whatever I learn will be added to the page in my sig, and I'll give you teh credit.
