(I noticed I originally posted this in the wrong forum, so after deleting the original post, I'm reposting my query here)
I've run into this problem with a few versions of ffmpegx and given up on them before, but I just thought I'd ask here for the record:
Occasionally (and less often with 0.0.9x) when I'm converting .AVI or .VOB files to something else (it doesn't seem to matter which format), ffmpegx cops out and creates a file that is 0kb immediately at the start of encoding. Is there a fix for this? Am I just missing something that would fix this problem?
I don't think it would be my setup, as this has happened with different versions of the app on different computers (both intel and ppc).
Thanks for any help problem-solving!

Thanks.

The Log may hold clues to why a conversion failed. You may access the Log by clicking the blue "i" in the ffmpegX Progress window.
Based on any error found in there, fellow users may be able to suggest a fix. -
Ah, ok - I was unaware of this function. I'll try it again and post what I come up with. Thanks a lot for your help!
Thanks. -
I have a similar problem, but the progress window indicates it's been converted. Now I know where to look. With me it happens nearly *every* time I convert to a .mov file.
Thanks -

The thing is that I could encode without probelm before....And now it just doesn't work.
please help me -
Your source file has the audio stream (#0.0) mapped before the video stream (#0.1). This is reverse from what the ffmpeg engine expects. You may fix this "Codec type mismatch for mapping"-error by indicating that the streams are reversed. To do so, check the "Invert mapping" checkbox in the audio tab.

Have you tried the solution Case mentioned, above?
Your source file has the audio stream (#0.0) mapped before the video stream (#0.1). This is reverse from what the ffmpeg engine expects. You may fix this "Codec type mismatch for mapping"-error by indicating that the streams are reversed. To do so, check the "Invert mapping" checkbox in the audio tab.If cameras add ten pounds, why would people want to eat them? -
I have a similar problem when i try to convert an avi file (+subs in .srt format) to dvdffmpeg preset: the progress window indicates it's been converted and the only file created is a .mpv file with okb.
here's my log:

Try turning off Quarter pixel ME (qpel) in the Options tab. Qpel is not supported in MPEG-2 video.
