  RE: The output formats are messed up in Movie Studio 2024

  RE: no audio for mov files
  I installed LAV filters to have a look and lo and behold, the dreaded Frame Salad effect came back, where with the Lagarith AVI files, you get random frames from other parts of the video showing up in the wrong places.

  RE: Increase recording quality?
  @CubeAce Ray, I don't see the relevance of most of that to this situation. Personally I would not use uncompressed AVI for this as it is too wasteful but also I am against using GOP structures with B and P frames in them and if I was making a copy

  @johnebaker John, too many question marks. There is a bug where the program doesn't interpret analogue AVIs as 4:3; this could be related. @jeesa2 Could you host that file on a hosting site eg Google Drive and give us the link so we can have a play

  @Can-Dive would you elaborate on your comment regarding MMS2024 not handling AVIs properly Welcome aboard, Candive. Analogue AVIs don't have display aspect ratio information stored in them, so programs don't know how to display them. PAL analogue

  RE: The output formats are messed up in Movie Studio 2024
  @clement5 There is a porthole at 3:30 that can be used to sort out the aspect. As I said previously, I think it's 4:3 provided the image is stretched horizontally to fit a 4:3 frame. As discussed, it's actually only 1.33 to 1 due to the known AVI
