CAVC error

Postby Busty » 27 Aug 2021 14:54

I have some videos that quicktime 7 can play just fine - as long as perian is installed. When I open those videos in VLC 3.0.16, I get an error message saying "CAVC - no descrition for this codec".

Does anyone know how to losslessly convert them into something VLC can play?
