simple divx 1.40 skipping frames for NTSC?

[flickerx]

Hows it going,

This is following on from a thread on the simple divx boards. You can read it here: http://simpledivx.org/ib/index.php?showtopic=130&st=0&#entry436

I'm backing up an NTSC DVD with simple divx which uses MEncoder to transform it into a DivX AVI. MEncoder seems to be skipping frames quite regularly, which leads to a jerky output. There are no such issues with PAL films. I think it might have something to do with the framerate. Does anyone have any suggestions for a fix - or a possible better alternative piece of free software to do this job with?

Cheers

Just remove the Dae.dll. No big deal.
