    I long used ffmpegx on Tiger and loved it for .avi to .mp4 conversion for tv via ipod av cable playback. When trying to run ffmpegx on Leopard, i get the following error (before anything loads up):

    AppleScript Error

    <<class pxsf>> "/Applications/ffmpegx.app/Contents/Resources/Scripts/lcdlib.scpt" of <<script>> doesn't understand the <<event sysoload>> message (-1708)

    Theres only one option on that window, "OK". I hit that, and then the main window loads up, asking for me to install the binaries, even though they are already installed. As soon as that window loads, another applescript error appears:

    AppleScript Error

    76 doesn't understand the <<event sysontoc>> message. (-1708)

    I hit "OK" (only option), and then I am on the binary installation screen. I tried to reinstall the binaries from this screen, but any attempt to "locate" the binaries gives the error:

    AppleScript Error

    <<script>> doesn't understand the <<event sysostdf>> message. (-1708)

    My specs:
    Leopard 10.5.1
    Macbook 2 GHz Intel Core Duo
    ffmpegx 0.0.9x (r2)

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I had the same problem. Could not use the app at all.

    I was having problems with my mac since installing Leopard, so I erased hard drive and reinstalled Leopard from scratch (I did an upgrade before), and my mac and ffmpeg are running much better. Although I do still get an error when trying to select DVD 16:9....
