guys, discover this GREAT video editor "AVIEDIT" work well in windows XP and generate compatible AVI with VFM, even first one for 286

For my 286 25mhz, i can have fullscreen smoth video at 288x192 12fps 11khz PCM sound and 200k data rate using msvideo 1. The trick is to select interleave every frame

Here is the ffmpeg command i use for create AVI that can work with aviedit, need virtualdub in same directory

ffmpeg -i in.mkv -vf "subtitles=in.mkv,scale=272:176,fps=12,eq=brightness=-0.05:contrast=1.05,palettegen" palette.png

ffmpeg -i in.mkv -i palette.png -filter_complex "subtitles=in.mkv,scale=272:176,fps=12,eq=brightness=-0.1:contrast=1.1[vid];[vid][1:v]paletteuse=dither=bayer" -pix_fmt pal8 -c:v rawvideo -af "aformat=sample_fmts=s16,aresample=11025:dither_method=shibata" -ac 1 -c:a pcm_u8 out.avi

virtualdub /s rawavi.vdscript /p out.avi raw.avi /r /x

Attach the virtualdub project

Is more or less automatic, i can convert a MKV with subtittles to 286 without much interaction, most are automatic. I already made a lot of content to play in my 286. Is amazing, one of my childhood dreams
