Encode from Quicktime to ffmpegX.

[karol]

After installing ffmpegX (i guess and hope correctly), i've tried to encode a movie I edited on iMovie. So I exported it on Quicktime, and made all the settings necessary in ffmpegX. But when i click encode, I receive a message from the terminal saying:

karolskotnicki% pbpaste | sh
Encoding started on Mon Jun 30 16:03:20 CEST 2003
## Component Manager: attempting to find symbols in a component alias of type (regR/carP/x!bt)

and a document that I can't open appears on my desktop.

Can it be a problem while installing the fonts necessary to ffmpegX ? Any idea ?
Thanks for answering

Hi,


I'm getting the same message when encoding QuickTimes to SVCD, but with a readable result. The pitty is, that the result is crunched because of another aspect ratio. Any tips to that problem are welcome.
Thanks,

Robert

Hi,

I also receive that message whenever I try to encode a movie previously encoded in Quicktime.

The kicker is that if I leave the terminal window open it seems that it actually is encoding anyways... Weird!

This is not an error, it is just a normal output from the Quicktime components invoked in the encoding process. The encoding is normally going on. You just have to wait until it is finished.

This is normal. SVCD's do have a weird aspect ratio, but playing it on your television will not make the movie look weird.
