Video runs smoothly in VLC, stutters in Windows Media Player

Postby Creole » 25 Jul 2010 16:22

Hi.

I know this may not be the right sub forum, but I don't know where else to post this question.

I've got an AVI file encoded in the standard definition DV format. When I play this video in the VLC media player, everything runs fine. But when I play this video on the Windows Media Player, it stutters.

When transcoding the video and burning it on DVD, I'm getting the same result. On standalone DVD players (which are my target in the end) the transcoded video also stutters. Changing the bit rate or the number of passes didn't change a thing.

The file is about 8.7 GB bit. When analysing it which GSpot, I'm getting the message that there are 2.87 GB unneeded bytes at the end of this file.

Do you have any clue, why this Video could run so fine in the VLC media player, but cause problems in Windows Media Player and on standalone DVD players?

Thank you for your time.

Thank you for your reply.

I've installed Avidemux now and am currently recoding the file with the DV format. Is that what you mean with "remux"?
