What is AVIEncoder?
Many of you have been asking:
Why can't I capture AVI files, larger than 2GB? I have tons of disk space!
How do I set the video format/compression programmatically?
Can I automatically select the video compressor?
Why can't I change the format of the audio track?
How do I capture with such-and-such CODEC?
How can I convert my AVI files?


Well, all these questions relate to limitations of the Video-for-Windows system. We've
been frustrated with these limitations too. That's why we, at ActiVideo, Inc. decided to
enhance our line of products to offer a solution to all these problems. The result is the AVIEncoder - a combination of OCX control and ActiveX COM
component for live and off-line AVI capture and compression with selectable compression
parameters.


AVIEncoder provides means for controlled
capture of OpenDML 1.02 compliant AVI files (thus breaking the 2GB barrier of
Video-for-Windows based capture) with selectable audio format and video compression codec,
as well as re-compression of existing AVI files into OpenDML 1.02 compliant AVI files with
selectable compression parameters.
