AVI to VCD error

[syxx2001]

I have a AVI and it requires the OGG codecs to play and when I try to encode I always get an error that says

The error occured when ACM was initialized.

What does this mean and how do I fix it? I downloaded the ACM codec and installed it like 3 times and it didn't work.

Did you extract and save the Audio as a WAV before encoding?

Also,
Here is a quote from another person with the same prob

Right, after getting no where with downloading new versions of the program i decided to experement.

I opened the Xvid file with Virtualdub which then enabled me tosave it using a different commpression. So i chose to use DivX5 with uncompressed sound. After a few hours this gave me a one Gig file which i then proceded to run through TMPGEnc.

And hey presto, it liked this file. Yay

Its quite good i found this out because i have also been downloaded a file that uses OGM (Ogg Vorbis sound compression). With this one i had to pass it through an audio decompressor then do the same as i did with the last file.

So there you go, if anyone later finds them with this probmlem. I may have taken a long route to make them work, but least those X number of hours of downloading havent gone to waste.

Try VDubMod. VD is also known as Vineral Disease, so please, for my mental peace, use VDub from now on!

VD = Virtual Dub, so it didn't open in Virtual Dub. Im using EO Video now. It seems to be going fine so far. Hopefully its working good when I wake up in the morning. Thanks.

EO Video sucks. It costs money even.
