The VideoLAN Forums • View topic - VLC 1.0.2, wrongly reports broken AVI index
AVI file plays perfectly and no problem is reported by other programs like VDUB and GSPOT.
Investigating the problem, it seems that VLC bases its "broken index" check on comparing the video header length and the index-length.
Because the first calculation is more unprecise that the second it causes "the broken index" message - a bit misleading - the index is fine.
example:
video 1 (orginal)
total frames = 41958
microsecperframe = 33367
length = 1400012586 uS, or 1400,012586 s
stream-index:
total frames = 41958
rate = 30000dec
scale = 3E9H ()
length = 41958*1 * 3E9 / 30000 = 1399998600
in seconds 1399,998600
truncated 1400 in the first case and 1399 in the second case.
, VLC player therefore wrongly reports "broken index"
video 2 (last video frame editted out)
