What frame rate should IVF have? I have video with 15 fps and it seems eduke runs it with 30 fps, because it plays 2x faster.

Take a look at the ivfrate command line utility available in the EDuke32 source, but not in synthesis. LeoD built one a while ago.

I cannot for the life of me get the sound to work with this. Not even the built-in sounds will play. I'm positive I've done everything right here, but the sounds refuse to play. I did the DEF file and everything just as the tutorial describes. Setting up and defining a new OGG sound from the video also doesn't work. Just doesn't play at all.

Only thing I see in the log is this: Error: expected a hardcoded anim file name (sans extension) on line duke3d.def:1

Sorry to bump but this is kinda pissing me off. I just want to know why the sounds won't play here. I was going to forget about it but I'd love to know why it's not playing.

IIRC it's broken. Seems I never got to hunting this one down to the specific source revision because it somehow disappeared from my to-do list.

Try either adding or subtracting the .ivf extension to/from your def syntax. I forget which.

Found it. Broken as of r4987. Nearest synthesis versions are r4980 (OK) and r5001 (broken). Example DEF + IVF attached. It works, however, if you remove the extension from the actual IVF file in your CWD, which is surely not what's intended. The game doesn't seem to care if an extension is DEFined or not.
