How to create fast-forwarding movie or slow-motion movie?

From this site(Language : Japanese) Create movie2 Editing by VirtualDub

This time I explain about create slow-motion movie.
Start, this movie. I'll use their movie :)

Prepare for something beforehand
Virtualdub can read and create to use ffdshow, but movie's sound can't change.

This movie codec is "AAC", so at first download codec from here. Download "AAC ACM Codec(AACACM.zip)" and extract. If your PC is 32bit, use x86, if 64bit, use x64's batch file.


No double-click, right-click and choose "run program as an admnistrator". If command prompt window showed and no error occured, install is success.

The main subject
  1. Run Virtualdub and read movie(Drag and drop).
  2. Click "Audio" in menu, and choose "Full Processing mode".
  3. Next, choose "Use Advanced filtering" in Audio. And after you can choose "Filters..."
  4. Choose "Filters...", this window showed.

    Click right-side "Add" and double-click "input" - "pitch shift" - "stretch" - "output".
  5. Window changed like this. Double-click "pitch shift" and "stretch", and change their number. This time I'll create one-and-a-half times slow-motion movie, so I set both number "1.5"
  6. Next, set "Frame Rate" in Video. Choose "Frame Rate", the window showed. Watch "current :" number and change number.(Create one-and-a-half times slow-motion movie, so set "Frame rate" number divided 1.5. And set "Convert to -" number near "current :" number).
  7. Choose "Compression" in Video and choose encode format, and set bitrate in Configure. I use "ffdshow Video Codec" and set bitrate "3000kbps".
  8. Choose "File - Save as AVI", input file name and click "Save". Encode started.
Completed!
Completed movie(only 1 minutes 47 seconds)

If create fast-forwarding movie, "pitch shift" and "stretch" number set lower than 1. And "Frame Rate", if you wanna create one-and-a-half times, set one-and-a-half times number, if create double, set double number. ("pitch shift" can set over 0.5).

Why Installer showed errors!?!?

Sometimes installer showed errors.
For example,




If "Failed to load DLL : InstallDll" showed, maybe this installer is broken or lacked files. So, try to download installer again. I resolved this problem.
