Can someone help me out here becaus ei am going crazy with this converting business. I have some downloaded movie files which i wish to put onto dvd. The files are in AVI format and i'm using virtual dub and tmpgenc to encode with. So far 3 of my files have converted fine from avi to mpeg-2, but the others for some reason are giving every program i open them in a runtime error. I am extracting the audio from the movies with virtual dub, and then when i go to tmpgenc and put in the movie file it is fine then when the audio file is introduced it gets a runtime error and shuts down on me. Other programs i have tried are also doing the same thing with these files and i don't know what the problem may be. I am fairly new at this and would be very greatful for some help on this subject.
