Why does it tell me that the file has been created but when I check the file - it's zero KB in size?
I'm trying to create FLV files, but I have also tried to convert to other file types - but it always creates an empty file? It creates the file in about 1 second?
Can anyone help me with this???

Any suggestions to this dilemna?

Ok I had the same problem as the first post and I followed the instruction to select "invert mapping" in the audio tab. Doing so created a flash movie rather than an empty file but it plays back at about 2 frames per second no matter how the video settings are set. I took the exact same file and reversed the order of the audio and video tracks in Quicktime pro by extracting, deleting and then pasting the extracted audio back. I then deselected the "invert mapping" button and it made a movie that played just fine.
Is there an error with the "invert mapping" function that is leading to this? I was going from MPEG 4 to FLV and reducing the size from 640X480 to 320X240 and the frame rate to 15 Fps from 30.
Here is what the Bad encode log looked like:

Wow. . I tried to re-encode the same exact thing with the same settings as the other file to try repeating the error. I can't believe it was that far off. I may have accidentally used the wrong file or grabbed the wrong log. I'll see if I can repeat this again in the morning using the same exact file.

I've tried the invert mapping solution above and no luck.. still zero K files. I'm trying to convert an MP4 to flv. Log below... The last line mentions a codec mismatch... any help would be greatly appreciated. Pixelgeeek
