I have a problem that has been driving me nuts!! With DVD2SVCD -- 55% thru muxing my MPG file, bbmpeg just stops dead in it's tracks. Still shows as running in APPLICATIONS and the PROCESS is at 99% CPU utilization. It just never finishes and I have no alternative but to kill the program. I am running WinXP and this happens on 2 different systems when converting to MPEG-2.

I have tried installing the bbmpeg XP patch -- but DVD2SVCD reports an error stating the the bbmpeg.dll is incorrect. It seems the bbmpeg.dll used by DVD2SVCD is a modified version.

There is a twist However -- if I use the older DVD2SVCD 1.1.2b1 -- it works fine on both systems. Anything newer and no go! I like the newer versions of DVD2SVCD as it works better with AVI's using various encoders (i.e. HuffyUV, MJPEG, etc.). as 1.1.2b1 says it could not find the codecs (lthough they are installed and they do work with newer DVD2SVCD versions).

I even copied the 1.1.2b1 bbmpeg.dll and dropped t into the newer DVD2SVCD BBMPEG folder. No difference. Still stops while mux'ing at 55%.

This is not isolated to one AVI file, but any AVI file -- even while processing DVD rips. Nothing in the log files to indicate a probelm -- it just stops mux'ing w/o errors.

Any ideas -- please !!!!!!

Thanks !!
