Can I re-encode a Xvid to 44100 Hz instead of 48000 hz?

    I have an xvid that was originally encoded at 48000 Hz, unfortunatley my philips DVD player for my TV doesnt support it and needs to be at 44100 Hz, is there an easy way I can re-encode the file down to 44100 Hz?

    Hz in this case refers to audio. XviD is video.
    VirtualDub or mencoder can do it.

    Something like:
    mencoder.exe -oac mp3lame -ovc copy -srate 44100 -af lavcresample=44100 input.avi -o resampled.avi

    Never heard of a standalone MPEG4/avi player that couldn't handle 48KHz. Especially since DVD playback requires 48KHz.

    hmm I've always though DVD playback was at 44100. Yeah I know its audio and Xvid is the video, I was just refereing to the type of files I had.

    Its weird, I have files encoded the same but at 44100 and they play fine, but if its encoded at 48000 hz they dont play.

    I will try those suggestions though, thanks.

    XviD isn't a type of file either. It is just a video codec. Your files most likely are avi files.

    I still don't think it is the audio. Could be the video is too high a res, uses qpel or GMC, etc.
