Can capture audio-video avi with Microsoft; but xvid and x264vfw shows only 1 frame with audio
Hello,
[Updated: fixed typo: 100 ms should have been 10 ms; also, added note on a setting that works]
Downloaded last night; have watched full ~45 min tutorial; been experimenting. Recording audio and video to avi file. With Microsoft codec, get expected result. But with xvid and x264vfw, get audio but "video" is one fixed frame! Here's my setting for xvid:
First dialog box:
Quality: 100
Set key frames Every 100 frames
Capture Frames Every 10 milliseconds [original post had a typo and said 100 milliseconds]
Playback rate 10 frames/second
[X] Auto-adjust [X] Lock Capture and Playback Rates
Max Framerate -- left at default location.
Configure Dialog box:
Profile @ level Xvid HD 1080
Encoding Type: Single pass
Target quantizer: 1.00
1 (maximum quality)
Zones: Frame # Weidht/Q Modifiers
0 W 1.00
Quality preset: General purpose
Dialog box for Other Options:
FourCC used XVID
:Encoder: [ ] Print debug info ...
[ ] Display encoding status
greyed out [X] Write DivX5 user data ...
Didn't change anything else.
Please help
[Update]: Changed setting key frames to every 50, and capture frames to every 20 milliseconds; and it works as expected.

A few additional points as PS: Video captured yesterday with "Microsoft codec" was a little over 8 minutes and close to 1.8 Gigs (which compressed to 81 Megs as .mp4). I use VLC. Odd region sizes with xvid crash just when capture starts.
Xvid and x.264vfw definitely help, though! I have managed 3 hours of webinar recording with mostly still slides using Xvid and mono 44.1kHz 16-bit audio, but that was at the setting with capture-frames-every at 100 and the playback speed at 10.
The top setting for keyframes has less effect, and larger numbers will set fewer keyframes, resulting in smaller files. (A keyframe, in this instance, is a full recording of every pixel on the screen whether there was change or not. The in-between frames only capture pixels that have changed in value. 200 to 300 is a fine number.)
