Trouble understanding bitrate.?
456706
The formal abbreviation for "bit per second" is "bit/s" (not "bits/s"). In less formal contexts the abbreviations "b/s" or "bps" are often used, though this risks confusion with "bytes per second" ("B/s", "Bps"). Even less formally, it is common to drop the "per second", and simply refer to "a 128 kilobit audio stream" or "a 100 megabit network".\n\n"Bit rate" is sometimes used interchangeably with "baud rate", which is correct only when each modulation transition of a data transmission system carries exactly one bit of data (something not true for modern modem modulation systems, for example). Similarly, hertz, the SI unit of frequency, is not precise without some context, such as the number of bits carried per cycle.\n\nFor large bit rates, SI prefixes are used:\n\n1,000 bit/s = 1 kbit/s (one kilobit or one thousand bits per second) \n1,000,000 bit/s = 1 Mbit/s (one megabit or one million bits per second) \n1,000,000,000 bit/s = 1 Gbit/s (one gigabit or one billion bits per second) \n\nWhen describing bit rates, binary prefixes are almost never used and SI prefixes are almost always used with the standard, decimal meanings, not the computer-oriented binary meanings. There are exceptions in some specialty areas such as bus transfer rates. Binary usage is more often seen when the unit is the byte/s, and is not typical for telecommunication links. Sometimes it is necessary to seek clarification of the units used in a particular context.

try changing the resolution or encoding to AVI tthen converting it later on.\n\nencoding to MPEG or DivX takes a lot of CPU and it gets messed up if you do it on the fly.

Hi, What they are taking about is, If you are trying to play a movie or some type of song, you will need what is called a codec. You can find free codec on the Internet. I would go to http://www.free-codecs.com/\nI would download DivX 6.2.2 and also nick's Xvid codec. That should fix your problem. if not download others until you get the correct one. Hope that helps.

download gspot.\n\nIt will identify the codecs used in the film, and tell you why it is not working, and what you need to fix it.\n\nI discovered Gspot a few years ago and I can't go without it now.

It should get started in Win Media Player. If noy, download the latest codecs from internet.

I think it's saying you don't have the right codec installed for the files on the DVD. Here's a popular free player that might work:\n\nhttp://www.videolan.org/vlc/

Try to find out what the Codec is. Sometimes the video maybe a dummy without a header code, thus being generally unplayable by any computer.\n\nI suggest if you know anything about PC programming, get a HEX editor and check the header code for the Codec format. That takes a lot of work and I only suggest it if you have no other option. P2P programs like Limewire are becoming increasingly less helpful now that the media bigwigs are cramping down on us.

You can use program such as Virtual dub or  dscaler.\n\nI recommned you use dscaler.

before the video starts he ask u do u see the clip ..wait tell u see it and if u dont so u need codecs...check in at www.download.com  maybe ull find them

If you're using XP (and I think it works in 2000) right click the wav and select record. This gives you a new dialogue box . Click FILE then PROPERTIES. You get the option there to convert the format and change the playback bit rate. Select the one you want and save it.

More than likely it's because the video is NTSC encoded and your video card will be set up for PAL.  It usually makes things black and white and hazy.\n\nGet a video converter such as AVS video tools and convert it to PAL.  This should work but will take a while depending on your processor speed.

you need the correct and newest codec.go to this site for it,\nwww.divxmovies.com/codec/\n\nhope that helps

ok brother u got to copy all those vcds on to ur hard disk and u can conver it in to "divx". it is a new file format which gives u beter image quality and sound at reduzed size.\n\nand burn the divx files to dvd!\nwww.divx.com

UP GRADE YOUR PLAYER FROM MI'SOFT WEB SITE OR ASK YAHOO \nI HAVE TROUBLE WITH CNN VID'S SO THATS WHAT I DID TO MEDIA 10 + ALL CODECS

hey , i had this prob too, download the divX player, it'll tell you what codec is needed and is a better player than windows, then head over to download dot com and look up audio or video codec as needed and you should be sorted.

convert it back and use mpeg format instead.....avi sux\ntry for .mp4 format if you can...

I am not sure what you mean by normal.. But divx is likely the best compression available. If you are having a problem playing something, install the codec pack from the link below.\n\nOr edit your post and let me know what you want to convert it to.
