The VideoLAN Forums

Hi!

I need to play some .asf files in videolan (they are coded with mpeg4 using Axis Media Control SDK).

I want videolan to use divx codecs instead of built-in codecs.
Is it possible?

If I use Media player classic I obtain following informations:
Video: DivX 5 704x576 30.00fps 100000Kbps [Raw Video 0]
Audio: 0x01ef 8000Hz mono 128Kbps [Raw Audio 1]
and video and audio are played well.

If I try with VideolanClient, video is not so good and audio is absent (though it says there is a track 1).

In VideolanClient I have following information:

Diffusion 0
Codec: dx50
Type: Video
Resolution: 704x576

Diffusion 1
Codec: undf
Type: Audio
Channel: 1
Sampling: 8000 Hz
Bit per sample: 16
Bitrate: 128 Kb/s

How can I change audio and video codec used by VideoLanClient?

Thanks!!

No codecs can be added to the program without creating the library and recompiling the program. VLC is not a Direct Show player.

Thank you.

I don't want to add libraries and recompile VLC.

Is there a simpler way to hear audio channel of my .asf files?

if other players can play audio then also VLC should!!!

Since those .asf files are coded by an axis activeX I cannot decide which audio codec it should use while coding...

There are allot of other players that can't play the variety of formats that VLC can. But there are a few obscure formats or non-opensource formats VLC can't play.
