Help! Plz Help!

Try to play the *.mpv file in a media player.
Open the *.avs file generated with DVD2SVCD in VirtualDubMod and look for errors from VDMod.
Overall the speed from CCE is very high for such resolution. Obviously mplex cannot deal with encoded file. That means it is crap inside, or maybe CCE encoded an error mesage from Avisynth.
Good luck with debugging.

It looks like mplex is having trouble with the audio stream. 'file unrecognisable' shows up when it trys to read the second line, which i would assume is the audio stream. It looks as if it recognises the video stream fine.

[Abond]

Maybe. Then try to play the *.mp2 file encoded with BeSweet.

**ERROR: [???] Unable to open file  for reading.

SpuMux then fail because MPlex didn't create the file.... It is also interesting that DVD2SVCD didn't stop when MPlex crashed! It continues!
So can you tell me why is it unable to open for reading?? I played the "Encoded_Video_TMPGEnc_PAL.mpv" (I used CCE, but I did a recovery and the first time I used TMPG and the filename did not changed) it works fine!!!

When I play the audio (Encoded_audio_1.mp2) it works fine too!!

Please, anybody who can, help me!
Thanks very much!!
