Can somebody solve this problem? I really have to use DVD flick to create my DVDs because DVD flick can fix the overscan problems. If anyone can suggest me another program that can create DVDs (AVI to DVD) with fixing overscan, it would also be great.

[minidv2dvd]

check that last avi. it appears to have a duration of 0 seconds. it might be broken.

I checked the video. With other programs , it shows the duration of my last AVI file. I dont know why but DVD Flick cannot determine my video's duration...

[guns1inger]

I have seen DVD Flick funmble on a file from time to time. Wrapping it in a simple avisynth script often gets around the issue (Photostory videos are good example).

You could try FAVC (stick to version 1.06). Although occasionally problematic it has overscan adjustments and uses a superior encoder (HCenc).
