AutoGK hangs during AC3 import process...

[takearushfan]

Hey all,
I don't know what I did but something must've screwed up AutoGK somehow. When I use it and instruct it to use the "original" audio, after the first pass, when the AC3 is being processed, the app just hangs. I have to abort. I tried reinstalling AutoGK as well as K-Lite and even after rebooting it's still not working.
Please advise :/
Thanks again,
Justin

Got a log?

Hm. Well this is odd. The clip that was hanging was just under 5 minutes. However, I just tried a clip just under 2 minutes and it worked fine

Here's the log of the successful conversion, as the log of the failed attempt didn't reveal anything helpful.

Here's the log of the successful conversion, as the log of the failed attempt didn't reveal anything helpful.

Neither does this one. But then I wouldn't expect to learn anything about an unsucessful conversion from the log of a successful one of a different video. Except that maybe it's not an AutoGK issue.

Yeah, while posting I was thinking of the fact that if I post the log of a successful conversion then you wouldn't see any erroneous parts of the log. I posted it thinking that maybe you'd recognize something in it that might give a clue as to the problem, regardless of it converting without any obvious issues. I don't understand why it seems to work fine on short clips but not larger clips
I hate when you run into a situation where you expect things to work fine as usual, only to find that something no longer works properly, yet you have no clue as to why; I can't think of anything I did that would keep it from working as it should

Sorry for the bump but I'm wondering if anyone can suggest if not AutoGK, then what IS the issue?
Thanks

Once again:

Well, like before, the problem is that since it hangs I have to abort the process. It's all I can do. The log then doesn't reveal anything because all went fine until it was my "fault" for stopping the conversion. So, all the log shows is everything working fine until I decided to stop it, as I had no other choice

[takearushfan]

UPDATE:

Issue resolved. Apparently I just needed to reinstall AC3Filter. This really should've been obvious, seeing as how the problem was the AC3 importing process. For some reason it just didn't occur to me at first :/
