    Hi Major! Hi everybody!

    Yesterday, i made a DVD from a DivX .AVI file, but i had had a little problem.

    The source is a DivX NTSC (23.997 FPS). Duration : 101 minutes.
    I chose the DVD Hi-bitrate preset, change the size to DVD 16:9, the framerate on PAL, put the duration and choose 1 DVD 4Gb. Then i clicked on the Best button to have the right bitrate.
    In the Option tab, i chose Profile DVD, unchecked the SET 3:2, checked GOP headers and Letterbox (So GOP, No SVCD scan, Letterbox, Altivec, Bicubic and Decode with Quicktime were check)
    In the tools tab, i chose Author as DVD and chose Mux as... DVD, then i launched the encoding:

    Here is the log file:

    -------------------

    Look at the last line. I checked my .mpg file, and discovered that the process stop near 2Gb.

    So today i quit the application and relaunch ffmpegX. Go directly in the tools tab, choose my 2 files (.mp2 and .m2v), check Author as DVD and Mux as... DVD.
    And it works:

    So, why i have had this error the first time:

    **ERROR: [mplex] Need to split output but there appears to be no %d in the filename pattern /Volumes/Externe/VOB/nemo.mpg

    PS: The DVD seems OK in Apple DVD player, no audio sync problems and i have a 25 FPS PAL movie now.

    Thanks in advance!

    -------------------
    It's a bug I have to fix in the next version. As you found by yourself, the authoring tool should be used right now to complete the process in case of error.
