How do I: Split an .AVI file?
-
The question isn't how do I split it into binary chunks which are unplayable but rather, "How do I split it into multiple playable .avi files?" What I'm actually trying to accomplish is to cut a section out of an avi and have a shortened version which is playable. I also need this process to be fast. The avi's are in RLE format and their audio is PCM (if that helps). I also do not need 3rd party applications to do this it must be done within my app (even if I have to kluge a commandline to do it for me). Also, importantly, I need to be able to tell it from what point to what point to cut out...though that seems obvious to me. Thanks in advance for your help, you all are excellent! --Tony Archer "I can build it good, fast and cheap. Pick any two."

What has this question to do with the "C# Forum"? I would look at DirectShow and probably the classes would help you doing this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/directx9_c/directx/htm/directshow.asp -- - Free Windows-based CMS: www.zeta-software.de/enu/producer/freeware/download.html - See me: www.magerquark.de - MSN Messenger: uwe_keim@hotmail.com

A quick search for AVI on this site brings up a good article that explains this: http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/steganodotnet4.asp[^].

Hehe, I searched for everything BUT AVI. split avi cut avi edit avi just not avi. I figured I'd just get a bunch of "how to show an avi on your form" type results :)' Thanks! --Tony Archer "I can build it good, fast and cheap. Pick any two."

Hmm, not that helpful to me. Though admitedly I am a sad little C# newb :) HOWEVER, I used one of my valuable "Get the answer from a Microsoft dev" points and was given a C++ sample which does EVERYTHING and more that I need and quickly. The code (and much more) can be found on MS MSDN Here. You have to download about 130 or so meg of a huge file and then look search inside the file for "AVIedit." I hope this is helpful to some of you. I have the extracted source which zipped is only 36k so email me if you would rather not download the massive file. --Tony Archer "I can build it good, fast and cheap. Pick any two."

You mean an article that tells you what APIs to P/Invoke in order to split an AVI into frames when you want to split an AVI into frames isn't helpful? Hmm, interesting.
