Alright here's my problem...
I have one .rm vid that I am trying to convert to .avi with TINRA. The source.rm plays perfectly, but when I a done converting it it won't even play. Yesterday I converted the avi file that wouldn't play(I didn't know this at the time) into VCD format. When I played the .mpg vid it would play the audio but not the video.
Does anyone know what I'm doing incorrectly?
It worked fin for 8 other vids.

I am having a similar problem. I have converted a few 1 or 2 min clips from rm to avi to vcd-ready mpg. I just recently needed to convert a 25 min .rm file to a vcd-ready mpg. I loaded the .rm into the Tinra GUI. After the conversion, I got a file that was over 2 gigs (even though it said the filesize was 2 gigs even).
The new .avi wouldn't play in Windows Media, it would just crash. I tried to load it into Virtual Dub so that I could convert the 2+ gig .avi into a smaller avi, and hopefully I would be able to play the new avi in Windows media player. I encoded the avi in Divx 4.01. When I loaded the avi, it said "rebuilding index, seeking might take longer" or something similar to that. The progress bar was already filled 1/2 up when I started encoding the avi. The process only took around 5 mins. The resulting file size was 15 megs. Once I played the avi in WMP, the seek bar would go to its end, and the movie would freeze. When I clicked on the seek bar, the movie moved to that point in the video, but the video was moving as if it were being fast fowarded.
I also tried encoding the avi in Divx 3 Low/High motion. This would make the seek bar move to the end, except the movie would freeze on that frame instead of moving at a fast foward speed when I clicked at a point on the seek bar.
What is it that I am doing wrong? -
Also, when I tried converting the 2+ gig .avi files in TMPGEnc, it seems that TMPGEnc only converted the very first frame of the video file. The converion from avi to mpg took about 1 second. When I played the file in WMP, there was about 1 second of video on the mpg.
