Hi Folks:

Used *.v for a long time. Upgraded to *.x_r2 (with new binaries) and suddenly the output stops with two files (video and audio) but doesn't put them together.

I teach video, so I extract VOBs and convert them to MP4 for easy display to my students. Previously, I could drop a VOB on the Source Format box, change Target Format box to "h264.mencoder" and that was it. Occasionally, a VOB wouldn't work, so I'd first ffmpegx it to MP4 directly, and then convert the latter to MP4(264).

Now I get two files (*.mp4.mov.264 and *.mp4.mov.aac.mp4) and the application quits without any error notification.

Perplexing thing is that I can go VOB=>DivX mencoder without any problem.

Have included a "Terminal" session below. Any suggestions would be most appreciated. (There is a "1212 Bus Error" near the bottom, but I have no idea what that is or if it is affecting anything. My setup today is identical to yesterday's when the *.v version was working.)

Thank you very much for your time.

Best regards,
Michael-john Morgan
