After clicking encode (avi to dvdmpeg2) I hear the DING! and get a finished text in the progress window but there is no file to be found. I've tried saving to 3 different locations, nothing. It's odd. What simple point am I missing here?
Thanks

Please let us read the Process Information log about this conversion. You may access this log by clicking the blue "i" in the ffmpegX Progress window (after a conversion, or attempt).

The first line of the log seems to say it all: It can't find mpeg2enc. You need to (re)install it.
And don't forget: If it comes as a zipped (or otherwise compressed) file, you need to unzip it first, and then finish the install. -

It seems to have stopped encoding anything now though! Any suggestions?? Thank you!
This is the info log:

I have the same problem which just started today. I've been using ffmpegX for several years now, but suddenly, when I try to convert an avi file to DVDmpeg2enc, then use Filters to add a subtitle srt file (VOB Subtitles, Text encoding: ISO-8859-1, font size 2, Pos 95), it instantly dings. When I try to preview the video, I get the following message with no mplayer video preview:
sh: -c: line 0: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"
sh: -c: line 1: syntax error: unexpected end of file
This even happens when I try to convert a file that I previously successfully converted to a Video TS file.
The process information from ffmpegx Progress reads:
/bin/sh: -c: line 6: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"'
/bin/sh: -c: line 7: syntax error: unexpected end of file
Any help would be greatly appreciated. -

Yes, it worked! Another note to self: don't use apostrophes! Thank you for the quick and helpful reply.

I am having the same problem... press "encode" then dings, but doesn't save. Here is what it says when I press the 'i' button:

sounds like it has something to do with the "Unknown option on the command line: -oac." I'm not very good with computers, just trying to get some of my camcorder footage to post on youtube. In this, can you please computer talk to me like a 2 year old, thanks!!!! -

that is, "MEncoder" instead of "MPlayer".
Is it possible that you switched these two binaries in the installer window?

which will not be understood by a player, but is a needed parameter for an encoder. The "Unknown option" would happen if your mencoder binary was switched for mplayer.

Go to the menu bar at the top of the screen, where it says "ffmpegX". From the pull down menu, select "Install binaries" to bring the installer window back. Set the checkboxes. Locate the binaries again, in proper order. Install.
Try encoding again. -
Awesome, thanks for replying Case. So I reinstalled MEncoder (I think that was the one at least), then got it to save to a .avi. Then I opened the .avi and played it in quicktime and it was all black, and the video lasted a couple of minutes. When I clicked on the 'i' it had a lot of stuff to say:

I' having a similar problem. I'm converting MOD files to MPG. I hear the "zing" but find no file. I also don't have audio when I click on the "preview" tab in ffmepgX 0.0.9. Here's the "info" message I receive after encoding:

Like another person above, I'm almost clueless about video files, so please respond in simple terms. What am I doing wrong? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! -

Case, you've been huge . I'm going to try both, the 848 X 480, and the 720 X 400, see which I like best. You'll have to check out some of my vids when I finally get them posted, maybe in a week or something, http://www.youtube.com/sunnysaunter

What's weong ?
I tried with different files and file formats (mpg of FLV) to convert into any other file formats. No one works !!
Thank you for your support !

The log (with possible errors) is accessible by clicking the blue "i" in the ffmpegX Progress window. Please post that content here for review.
