Hello!

I am messing around with files I've been capturing from dvb-t.

I captued them by using mencoder:

        mencoder dvb://CH1  -o test.avi  -oac copy -ovc copy -endpos 00:15

I didn't have any luck with repairing the files by transcode or projectx or 
whatever I have tried (demuxing, synching, splitting, merging, anything ...) 

When I try to demux the file with transcode as described in the manual page
for avisplit, I get only one file, which holds audio and video data.
When I have a look at the file with tcprobe , it says this:

h...@hp:~/HOWTOS/video/tst$ tcprobe -i test.avi  -H 256
[tcprobe] RIFF data, AVI video
[avilib] V: 25.000 fps, codec=, frames=376, width=720, height=576
[avilib] A: 48000 Hz, format=0x50, bits=16, channels=2, bitrate=160 kbps,
[avilib]    30 chunks, 300000 bytes, CBR
[tcprobe] summary for test.avi, (*) = not default, 0 = not detected
import frame size: -g 720x576 [720x576]
       frame rate: -f 25.000 [25.000] frc=3
      audio track: -a 0 [0] -e 48000,16,2 [48000,16,2] -n 0x50 [0x2000] (*)
                   bitrate=160 kbps
           length: 376 frames, frame_time=40 msec, duration=0:00:15.040


There is no video codec reported. Maybe this the main reason for all the 
tools failing on working on the file. What do you think? Are there any 
suggestions what I can do to make this file usable.

greetings
Hans-Peter
