  1. I have several .avi files of 350megs each, encoded in divx 5 which play perfectly on real player and windows media. When I try to encode them using TMPGEnc the sound is fine but the video stick on the first frame.

    The same happens in Vdub, and when I ran the check for bad frames it found none, also tried divxfix which also said it was good. I tried playing the video through vdub, and it sticks, but once I press stop it switches to what the picture would have been if it had played normally.

    Any ideas?

    hey i have had this exact same problem. it was making me pull my hair out as i would encode a movie to mpg dvd and after 4 or so hours i would have a movie with no picture just a black screen. i had installed divx 5.1 (this worked for me previously) so i uninstalled it and went back to divx 5.02 corporate and now all is fine.

    so like the post above advises try a reinstall of divx. worked for me.

    cheers

    It could be that there are bad frames in the avi. TMPGEnc is really sensitive in that regard. Open the avi with Virtualdubmod, go to the video menu and select "direct stream copy", then go to Video>Scan Video Stream For Errors>Scan. Once the scan is complete go to Video>Scan Video Stream For Errors>Mask Bad Frames, then go to file and save as avi. Try running the new avi through TMPGEnc.
