I explain my case. I have a mini dv cam corder and i capture into pc in avi dv format(full quality). The problem is that when I use tmpeg encoder to encode that avi into mpeg1 then result video always freezes at same minute (4´48´´minutes). that happens during one minute + or - and after that, the image continue playing normaly. It doesn't happens with audio that continue playing while the image is stopped. Why is happening that?, tmpeg encoder works properly when I use it for encode a ripped dvd, but freezes in almost every kind of avi format I have proved.
My tools are:
windows 98se (amd athlon 1400)
firewire and pinnacle studio 7 for capture.
tmpeg encoder 12a, 12e and 2.0

May you help me please???

Thak you very much.
