hiya, got a avi with an ac3 audio, converted audio to wav and used tmpgenc to encode it for a dvd. pal.

everything goes a1 until 100% done then tmpgenc reports invalid pointer operation.

I´m not sure what it means, but you can still burn it without any problems.
By the way you know that you have to author it before you burn?!?!

well, I've burned files to DVD after authoring them... and my DVD player won't recognize them when I get that error message.

Now it doesn't have a problem recognizing other DVD's (same brand) that were burned prior, when using this program... but the message just started coming up and I cannot figure out why, nor how to fix it.

It gets to 100% and then as soon as it's done... invalid pointer operation... so any ideas on how to fix it?

I was encoding a DivX to MPEG2 so I could use it on DVD-R

Any ideas on how to fix this error message would be greatly appreciated!

It's your environmental settings.

Do 'em like this...

DirectShow Multimedia File Reader.......3
AVI2(OpenDML) File Reader................1
AVI VFW compatibility Reader.............0
CyberLink MPEG-2 Decoder.................0
Microsoft MPEG-1 Decoder.................0
Wave File Reader..............................0
BMP/PPM/TGA/JPG File Reader...........-2
DVD2AVI Project File Reader 1.76+.....-2
TMPGEnc Project File Reader 2.58......-2

Should work.


Good luck

An invalid pointer exception is when a program refers to an object that isnt there. So in other words there is something that should be there but isn't. Try to uninstall and reinstall and try again.
