pixel lines when encoding or ripping.

[unclewizz]

I'm getting pixel lines on my video files regardless of whether I'm

encoding or ripping from original dvd's. Avi files converted with either

tmpeg or main concept put the lines on the converted file. I have

attached a snapshot of the problem . I have checked

and replaced cables, replaced the power supply and I'm ready to throw

the computer out the window. The problem occures in the same spot

every time I reencode the file.

Looks like you are getting a drop out in that spot,how long does that appear for?Does it show when you play your dvd on your dvdrom?Check for any scratches or spots on the disc.Also does it appear on all your discs?Might be the dvd device is getting flakey,try another dvd-rom/-/+r.

The line would appear for less than a second. I have a dvd rom and a dvd

burner and they both have the same problem. And the problem then

transfers on to the burnt dvd and hence you can see it on the standalone

dvd player. The origin dvd's don't have any scratches on them. The

problem occures when converting avi to mpeg2 so I'm suspecting either a

cpu problem or motherboard problem.
