i recorded the last episode of 'Love Cruise' for my wife...I used PowerVCRII3.0 to record. I recorded it in mpeg-2. the software broke it up into 4 parts. So i wanted to join them into one part used merge in tmpgenc. It processes the data fine, but when it goes to make the file it gets partially finished and hangs the computer(running XP - thought it was un hangable) Any ideas... I havent run into ANY problems when using tmpgenc encoding my dvds or even when i split a mpg up to fit on cd. i have tried this 3 times now and it has locked up all three.
