MKV in VirtualDubMod
Alright, I'm trying to convert an MKV file to XViD avi/mpg. I can convert the video but no matter what I do I cannot get the audio to go with it.

Anyone encountered this before?

Nope.

But try saving the audio seperately, and then recombining it using virtualdub? You'll have to save it as a .wav though, and then re-select the compression inside of Virtualdub :/

avi/mpeg?

Something is seriously flawed with that assumption.

To save as an avi is pretty straightforward unless the audio is in ogg - then you have to demux and reencode the audio into mp3 (get the apropiate codec, Windows/Media Player Update has a nice habit of hobling their own version when updating).
....so don't forget to switch the audio tab into full processing from direct stream copy.

....as for mpeg - virtual dub can't encode into mpeg it wasn't written for that job.
I didn't use -mod that much and I know it was meant to combine the mpeg, ogm, mkv into the original.

However mpg always means a preset combination of audio and video - and probably both streams have to be converted.
