Problem with loading a file in TMPGEnc

[Kenspy2]

I keep running into this error when I try to LOAD a file in TMPGEnc. No conversion has taken place yet, I cannot even load the MPEG File.

File "C:\Example.mpg" can not open or unsupported.

Now I have used this program dozens of time for conversion, but this is the first time I have gotten this message. I started with .rars, converted that to a .bin/.cue, and then converted that to an mpeg file using vcdgear. It is an mpeg-2, not an mpeg-1, but I have converted from mpeg-2 before without any problems. It is in the SVCD PAL format, and I will want to convert the file into NTSC VCD.

Does anyone know why this file isn't loading, or what that error means...and how can I fix this?

Im also having kind of a smiliar problem...I can load up the file and everything...Im using the SVCD NTSC Film template I load up all the setting blah blah blah but when I hit the start button it just freezes..Ive been using this program for a while now and have never had a problem except when this was apparently ABOUT to happen it told me some Kernel.dll error..I just ignored it and restarted my machine..Ive installed, Uninstalled it again and again but it just freezes when I start to encode..anyone know what the hell the problem is im confused....?

I far from an expert but I used to get this message the first time I installed TMPGEnc.
I since solved it by changing the priority of the lpugin (check out the environmental setting and right click on the plugin to change the priority setting).
I hope that helps and is the cause of your problems guys, it was driving me insane when it used to happen to me - I'd used it successfully the week before and then BAM!, nothing!
