Need help with converting a Divx file

I am having a **** of a time converting a Divx file to use in FCP.
This is the file I am trying to work with: http://www.archive.org/details/F6FHellcat_PilotInstruction (It's the 164 MB Divx file)
While I have downloaded other Divx files from the same site and used QT to convert them to QT movies, this file is not playable by QT or a number of other programs.
The only program I have found that plays this file is VLC.
When trying to convert to a QT file, VLC is unsuccessful at everything EXCEPT changing the container to QT.
When I change the container, I get a QT file that is playable in QT and FCP, but it does not have audio. This is not a big deal.
The bigger problem is that when I play the new file in QT, the duration matched that of the original file.
When I import the file into FCP, the duration is 2 minutes shorter. The last 2 minutes are missing!
I'd appreciate any suggestions you may have on how to get a usable file from the original.
Thanks.

If the audio is no big deal, you can use Wondershare Video Converter, but it will set you back 40 clams.
You can download a free trial from their site.

I got it to convert successfully and it imported into FCP completely intact...but without audio.

  • Help with converting a Nero file

    I have previously converted a dvd insert designed with Nero into a pdf using adobe acrobat in order to send to someone else.  When I tried to do the same thing today with a new Nero designed insert the conversion wouldn't work.  The message said adobe didn't support the program that created the file.  Any ideas?

    thanks for your response.
    When I create a dvd insert or cd label etc using Nero the file extension is nct - nero cover template.  The printer wants the file as a pdf as he can't open Nero files.  I have version 9.3 of acrobat.

    Nero is simply a CD/DVD burning application and should have no effect on the type of files that will eventually be on the CD/DVD.
    What type of files are you trying to convert and exactly how are you trying to convert them? Plus, it would help to know the version of Acrobat you are using.

    I tried to convert my PDF credit card statement to excel but it says the file is password protected.  I did not set it up as a password protected file; it came from my on-line banking site.  Can anyone help?

    You must be using the subscription service with Adobe Reader (ExportPDF)?
    If so, you would need the password for the pdf. The bank may have (automatically) added a password preventing any changes. That would need to be removed first.

  • Help with converting an .aac file to .mp3!

    Is there anyway in iTunes to convert your entire library into a .mp3 file without it creating duplicates? Or is there a way to make it create the duplicates and then select every other song to easly get rid of the older .aac file?
    Thanks for your help!!!

    Would this work for me...? My problem is that I have about 6000 .WAV songs I've put from all my CD collection into my external 400 GB drive library. After a year of using my computer as a jukebox, I also decided to get an Ipod Shuffle, and would like to periodically put MP3 formatted songs on it from my library. So far, I've been 'converting' them in Itunes to mp3 (keeping the wav's of course) then smartlisting (by size) the mp3's into a playlist to put on the Ipod. The problem is that even though the mp3s are small, I don't want to use up disk space on the external drive for those essentially duplicate and only temporarily needed files. I know I can delete them manually after putting them on my Ipod, but that's lots of chances to accidentally delete a wav by mistake or otherwise screw up and waste time.
    I'd really just like to create a separate physical place on my internal drive as the 'destination' and then convert a few hundred (or even all 6000!) of my wavs to mp3 into that directory, then go back to using the external (main, 'wav')library for any new CD's I import. Can this be done without somehow screwing up the main library data file, and will I still be able to consider that my external drive has all the information which goes with the .wav files so that if I copy everything on it I've truly done a backup? (I don't care if I lose the mp3's, as they are only transient en route to the Ipod). I wish I could set Itunes to keep everything on my computer in .wav, and convert automatically to mp3 when loading my Ipod...!
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

  • Need help with query from .csv file

    I am trying to import a csv file with only 1 column in it.
    The column will only contain a 9 digit ID number. I want to read
    the file then use the contents to query a table to get the names
    and other information and display it. Here is what I have so far:
    <cffile action="read" file="#form.FiletoUpload#"
    variable="csvfile">
    <cfloop index="index" list="#csvfile#">
    <cfquery name="massimport" datasource="data1">
    SELECT * FROM IDTable
    WHERE CardNumber = ('#csvfile#')
    </cfquery>
    </cfloop>
    <cfoutput>#Name# #ID# #Site#</cfoutput>
    I get no errors but I am not getting any results. Just a
    blank page. Does anyone know how to query directly from a csv
    import? Thanks.

    You need to convert your file to a list somehow. Not sure if
    this is the most efficient way but, you can use the cfhttp tag to
    produce a query. Then your where clause becomes,
    where cardnumber in (#quotedvaluelist(query.column)#)
    and you won't need a loop.

  • Need help with converting characters to ASCII code

    Hey. Im trying to write a program to make Caesar Ciphers by random numbers. This cipher must also wrap from front to end of ASCII code, so that if, for example, the character being ciphered is Z and its being modified by +3, the result ciphered character is not "]", but "c".
    Im planning on reading the text that the user inputs (using ConsoleIO) into a string and then seperating each character into a character[]. Then, i would like to find the ASCII code of each character and print out the ASCII code character of the old ASCII code + the modifier.
    So far, this is what i have (sorry for the length, i like to space things out so that its easier on the eyes and more organized... X-( ... ):
    public class EvanFinalB {
         static ConsoleIO kbd = new ConsoleIO();
         static String enteredPhrase;
         static int phraseLength;
         public static void main(String[] args)
              System.out.println("Enter a phrase and this program will cipher it into a secret message.");
              System.out.println("/nEnter your phrase here:");
              //read phrase
              enteredPhrase = kbd.toString();
              //find length of entered text
              phraseLength = enteredPhrase.length();
              //declare arrays for the individual characters of the entered text and the ciphered characters
              char[] enteredChar = new char[phraseLength + 1];
              char[] cipheredChar = new char[phraseLength + 1];
              //loop converting of entered text into seperate characters
              for(int x = 1; x <= phraseLength; x++)
                   enteredChar[x] = enteredPhrase.charAt(x);
                   cipheredChar[x] = cipher(enteredChar[x]);//call cipher() method to find new ciphered character
         //wrap from front to end of ASCII code
         static char cipher(char enteredChar)
              //choose random number to cipher message by
              int modifier = (int)(Math.random() * 26) + 1;
              if(enteredChar + modifier > 90)//90 is the ASCII code for "Z" which is the last capital letter
                   cipheredChar = (97 + (modifier - (90 - enteredChar)));//97 is the ASCII code for "a" which is the first lower case letter
              return cipheredChar[1];
    }The program is obviously in its early stages but (i started creating it today actually), if there is a simple method or anything that i can use to find the ASCII value of a character in order to use enteredChar so that 'enteredChar' is equal to the ASCII code of the new ciphered character, please help me out...Thanks
    P.S. If there's an easier way to go about creating a program for Caesar Ciphers, let me know.

    The following code is from my Java textbook Big Java by Cay Horstmann. It is not my code and it's just to guide you in your own cipher.

    import java.io.OutputStream;

          @param aKey the encryption key

    Thanks for your response.
    I am not sure if there is any easier way, but I tried out the following tool available on the net to check an xml against a xsd:
    http://tools.decisionsoft.com/schemaValidate/
    There were a few issues, that I corrected and finally had a xsd and xml that were matching and valid. I tried this out in my file reading BPEL process, but the error still remained the same!
    Here is my updated/simplified xsd and xml:

    <alternategroup Name="GHI" Desc="GHI-Desc"/>

    I even tried the option that is available in JDeveloper to generate a sample xml from a xsd (when in the context of a Transformation activity). The xml generated by this also seems exactly like the one above.
    So, I am not able to figure out why my BPEL process errors out with the message Invalid xml document.
