Hi all

I would like to convert an uncompressed avi video into a number of different
formats using codecs installed on my computer. Could people suggest whether
I should use an existing program (free/shareware) or create my own? I would
like to be able to select the uncompressed file and then select which codecs
to use and the program should do the rest. Advice and/or links to any
further help would be greatly appreciated.

Forgot to mention that I don't need to view the videos with the same
program.

There is a quite understandable tutorial on avi-use at
www.shrinkwrapvb.com/avihelp/avihlp_1.htm

Its not in C++(Builder) but in VB... very sorry, but most of what's needed
are API-Calls and the samples in that tutorial are a good starting-point.
One of the samples is exactly, what Your're asking for: converting from one
codec (or uncompressed) to another. This sample works, but, as far as I see,
it doesn't handle audio-streams.

Good luck
Michael

I found VirtualDub, which does everything I need.
