Problem with DVD2SVCD, Please Help

[Sandman]

Hi, im new to converting AVI's to SVCD's and after following a tutorial on vcdhelp, i started trying to use DVD2SVCD. Now, when it gets to the stage where it opens CCE and starts to encode or whatever its doing, it finishes all the passes its needed and then it just stops on the CCE screen with the file information. I close CCE and then try to close DVD2SVCD and it says its still working ?? The screen i mean is here:

Im using CCE 2.5 with the CRC patch installed. I have tried using TMPG instead of CCE and that worked fine, but TMPG took forever and the final quality was pretty poor. What is supposed to run after CCE has finished ? I seem to get left with a 700meg mpv file and an audio file at this point, could i just run the next program in the sequence manually to combine them perhaps?

Cheers

with the mpv stream and your audio stream, all you should need to do is mux them with TMPGENC tools, then burn.

The question that has to be asked (rhetorical) is is the copy of CCE that you are using a legal one or was it obtained illegally? When you reference the CRC patch, it tells me that it is illegal, but anyway....

If it is not a legally purchased program, that will more than likely be the answer. And, if it is an illegal program, no one here can help you.

If it isn't, please post the log file from dvd2svcd here and I will take a look at it.

Just tell him what he wants to hear and say YES IT IS LEGAL since that is a dumb question anyway.

""You don't wanna use illegal versions because they don't work right""<<stupid remark.

btw, the crc patch isnt illegal..it fixes checksum errors
