i did guess that would be the problem but you said that it played for 5 secconds so i assumed that half the video was corrupted... sorry

Re: Colada II opinions
 

Hi Smitty,

Do the following to increase the volume:
1. Install FFDShow
2. Right click one of the ffdshow decoder icons in the system tray after starting converting a movie
3. Click on FFDShow Audio decoder option in the menu
4. Go to volume and check the option
5. Set volume a bit louder
6. Enjoy


And congrats on your purchase!

That sounds easier than what I did. I ripped the audio using virtualdub and then amplified it by 300 percent and then resynched the amplified audio during the conversion process. Now if only there was a place to download full length movies in AMV format I'd save myself alot of of time and energy :) Thanks for everyones help. It looks like in the future I will be re-selling these things so any that pass through my hands will be reviewed here as my little contribution to the community.
