Hi,
Here's what I do to any video I want to use in pd:
mencoder $1 -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mjpeg:vpass=1 -oac pcm -o $1_pd.avi ffmpeg -i $1_pd.avi -ar 44100 $1_pd.wav
the second line extracts the audio into a separate wav file. has always worked for me so far...

Actually it is not just .avi files that make pd crash, maybe it is the mjpeg codec?
This is an example of a file that crashes pd
http://www.archive.org/download/ANALOG_RECYCLING_VJ_LOOPS/AR_ARROW_3.mov
I just tried on Pd version 0.42-5extended-20101206
Anny ideas?
I miss playing videos with pd.

Hello,
pix_film crashes pdextended every time I try to open an .avi file , I think with whichever coded.
It works on .mpeg files tho.
When it crashes I get this:
swScaler: Exactly one scaler algorithm must be chosen Segmentation fault
This is on Ubuntu Lucid and maverick with Pd version 0.42.5-extended-rc6 I got the deb from the Nightly Auto-Builds.
I am sure this was working before but I don't know what I did, if it was with a different version of pd or some coded I installed.
Can someone help please?
Thanks in advance.
