  • G40032MB - MJPEG doesn't work ???

    Hi,

    I recently upgraded from Marvel G200 to Millenium G400 Dual Head, 32MB. I was happy to find the extended graphics flexibility of G400, until I tried to play one of previously captured (with G200) MJPEG AVI's. I got a green screen, and a scrambled sound - noise.

    I tried capturing a MJPEG with G400, and when I play it back - same result.

    Uncompressed AVI's work fine. However, when I play MPG encoded files (created earlier from MJPEG AVI's ..) I have missing frames. As if the configuration is not capable anymore of online decoding MPG files.

    I have tried different versions of drivers and matrox video tools - same effect. I tried them with 95 and 98 - no luck. However, I have been told, that there is rigth combination of drivers and video tools that only work with G400 and RR-G.

    Does any one know what is this magic combination? Please help

    Related details of my configuration:

    PIII 450MHz, 64MB RAM
    HDD 10.1 IBM, 7200rpm
    G400 Dual Head 32MB, Rainbow Runner - G series


    Thanking in advance for your help

    Best regards

    Ivan

    10x, but unfortunately it didn't work. I've tried several drivers 525, 530, 541, 552 with VidTools 151 and 152 - same result.

    I also tried capturing using the Video Capture tool in the Media Studio Pro 5.0 pack. It captured NO frames displaying the following message:

    "Warning. No frames captured. Confirm that vertical sync interrputs are configured and enabled"

    Strangely enogh, I observed that MSPro5.0 can open those MJPEG AVI's and I can edit them, but I cannot play them.

    Please ANY ONE HELP !!!

    Would anyone prefer to write an e-mail, please use: iiv@pmail.net

    Thanking in advance

      I think that in view of Haigs comments about green screens and stuff recently that you should apply to Matrox for an RMA.

      Try doing a search on the forum for the string "RMA" over the last couple of weeks and you'll probably start seeing some similarities
