trouble with tmpeg and files using huffyuv

[Coluph]

I am having a problem with TMPEG not liking files made using the huffyuv codec...can someone point me in the right direction?

I've tried capturing with two different programs to an AVI file...it does not make a difference which one I use. (ATI MMC 8.8, or Virtual VCR) The file plays fine, and I see nothing wrong with the file, using both media player, and the ATI MMC.

When I try to use the file in TMPG encoder, it does two things

1) I takes forever to check the field order when opening the file. (allmost as long as it actually takes to play the file)
2) After you put your filters in and get the settings the way you like...when you make it start the encoding you get the error message, "Read error occured at address 00012F40 of module 'TMPGEnc.ece' with 20656850'

Does anyone else have this problem and is there a way to fix this? I can't do any video restoration work at this point because of this, and I am restricted to using the plain old straight to MPEG2 method in capturing (no cleaning up the video) It's driving me nuts!

I've got the settings as follows in the codec:
Predict Left (Fastest) Predict left/no decorr. (fastest)
field threshold at 480
always suggest RGB format for output enabled (the file didn't load in vegas properly until I did this...it would come out upsidedown and grainy)
Enable full size output buffer (might fix crashing) enabled
everthing else is disabled.


The codec is listed as Huffyuv v2.1.1 - CCESP Patch v0.2.2

Thanks

Sorry for bugging people with this I found the problem...the copy of tmpgenc I was using was corrupted...I tried another copy of it and it seems fine now...I wish I had tried that sooner.
