slow playback not possible

Posted by LBeckmann at 2008-02-07 13:30  

Hi!<br>My ELAN (Version 3.1) doesn't play video-files in slow playback. To increase playback speed (100 - 200 %) is no problem, but if I reduce it (anywhere from 100 to 0 %) the video playback stops. It also stops during playback if I reduce the tempo and it goes ahead in the area from 100 to 200%.<br><br>Hope someone can help me.<br>Laura<br><br>

This could also be a problem caused by an installed codec (see the post "ELAN closes immediately",
http://www.lat-mpi.eu/tools/elan/elanforum/simpleforumpost.2008-02-04.9470224108).
You can check the log file in a text editor, there will be a part like this:

Filters in the filter chain:
index: 0 name: Default DirectSound Device
pin: 0 name: Audio Input pin (rendered)
index: 1 name: Video Renderer
pin: 0 name: VMR Input0
index: 2 name: Elecard Audio Decoder
pin: 0 name: MPEG \ LPCM In
pin: 1 name: PCM Out
index: 3 name: MPEG Video Decoder
pin: 0 name: Input
pin: 1 name: Output
index: 4 name: Elecard MPEG Demultiplexer
pin: 0 name: Input
pin: 1 name: Video (ID 224 @ Prog# 0)
pin: 2 name: Audio (ID 192 @ Prog# 0)
index: 5 name: file:///E:/....
pin: 0 name: Output

If the file is an mpg-1 file and the filter just above the "file:///.." filter is not MPEG-I Stream Splitter, there's probably an installed codec in the way.

Hi

I am experiencing the same problem.
It's impossible to play the media at a slower rate in ELAN.

I have had a look at the logs (as was explained in previous posts), but as a linguist and not an IT-expert, I cannot make much out of it.

These are the logs:

Using Windows Native Media Player DS
Filters in the filter chain:
index: 0  name: Video Renderer
 pin: 0  name: VMR Input0
index: 1  name: Default DirectSound Device
 pin: 0  name: Audio Input pin (rendered)

 pin: 0  name: in0
 pin: 1  name: out0
index: 3  name: WMAudio Decoder DMO
 pin: 0  name: in0
 pin: 1  name: out0
index: 4  name: file:///C:/Users/VGTC/Documents/onderzoek 2008/Meervoudsvorming/Opnames/Gent/MV_gebaarder_Sammy/MV_gb_Sammy_fotoreeks.wmv
 pin: 0  name: Raw Audio 0
 pin: 1  name: Raw Video 1
Aspect Ratio: 1.25
Millis per Sample: 40.0
offset: 0

Any help is welcome.
