What works
Runs, opens files. Installed XviD codec with exe and Vdub could read Xvids no problem. Sound works.
What does not
Screen goes black when you open a video, this can be avoided by going to "Options->Preferences->Display" and unticking DirectX.
Workarounds
What was not tested
Did not test encoding, only previewing.

So far so good. Following overrides and configs were done in virtualdub to get things working:
1. Go to ~/.wine/ and make system.ini with the following contents:
[drivers32] vidc.XVID=xvid.dll
That is for recognizing xvid as a codec after installing.
2. Then to avoid an out of bounds exception, go to Options->Preferences->Display and untick Use DirectX for display panes.
3. Press F9 and F10 or disable both input and output preview panes under View menu.
To have a context menu in KDE (e.g. Dolphin):
[Desktop Entry] Type=Service ServiceTypes=KonqPopupMenu/Plugin MimeType=video/* Actions=Virtualdub; #X-KDE-Submenu=Virtualdub #X-KDE-Submenu[de]= Encoding=UTF8 [Desktop Action Virtualdub] Name=Compress using Virtualdub Icon=video Exec=~/bin/virtualdub.sh ~/path/default-compression.vcf "%f"
#!/bin/bash export WINEPREFIX=~/.wine WINE=/usr/bin/wine VDUB=~$WINEPREFIX/drive_c/Progs/VirtualDub/VirtualDub.exe VCF=$(winepath -w "$1") JOBS=$(winepath -w ~/path/virtualdub.jobs) VIDEO=$(winepath -w "$2") #echo $WINE $VDUB /master $JOBS /s $VCF $VIDEO $WINE $VDUB /master $JOBS /s $VCF $VIDEO
If you don't need compression presets, you may remove all VCF stuff. If you want to use the default JOBS file, you may remove all JOBS stuff.
