Slow audio/sound when transcoding/converting video.

Postby zensunni » 29 Dec 2007 18:51

Hi there,

I'm trying to change an mkv format into an mp4 format. But, whenever I test it out, the audio is slowed right down, and the voices of people sound pretty goofy.

Here is my MRL:

:sout=#transcode{vcodec=h264,vb=1024,scale=1,acodec=mp4a,ab=512,channels=2}:duplicate{dst=std{access=file,mux=mp4,dst="<filename & path>"}}

Thanks for any insights :)

Don't transcode unless iyou really have to (so demux mkv and muxt to mp4 if possible). ab=128 might be a better choice for audio bitrate.

This worked well, thanks. I actually thought that the audio/video wouldn't pass into the new file if it wasn't trans-coded [sic].

Sometimes the best solutions are the easiest.
