avi.Net Problem: Not producing an .avi file

[Johnathan K]

Background: Installed avi.Net. Ripped the DVD with 1 Click DVD Copy into a folder on my hard drive. Opened avi.Net and directed to _1.vob file. avi.Net indexes and starts the movie. When the movie ends, I wait but there is no .avi file produced. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for your help.

You try autogk.

[Johnathan K]

No, because I had heard that it is no longer supported.

[Baldrick]

But it still make good avi divx/xvids....

Or use staxrip or xvid4psp.

I will give it a try.

However, I still would like to know what happened with avi.Net, if anyone has any suggestions?

I'd like to know why all of a sudden there is a resurgence in interest in avi.net myself. Nobody bothered with or mentioned that program for eons and now two posts about it in as many days.

Baldrick, I just wanted to say "Thank You!". AutoGK is working. I still have not heard anything or anyone respond to avi.net. I am still trying to work out my issues with AutoGK. Like how to get my file size down to 1.5 GB or less for DVD movie. Any tips or a website I can learn more from?

You can set it to a custom size, step 3 http://www.autogk.me.uk/modules.php?name=TutorialEN

I use avi.Net all the time now that AutoGk has decided not to run on my Windows 7 32 bit box - It was working and have tried all the usual solutions to no avail. However returning to avi.net - works well have a look for a log file and post that or maybe a screen shot of the window when it's encoding. BTW when it's encoding it doesn't play the film in any preview style mode as it does when you load the movie. It stops immediately you start the process.

I will take a look netmask56. I remember that it went through the indexing and then it played the movie. After the movie stopped playing, the screen remains blank and nothing else happens.

I will look for a log file to see if it tells me anything.

I may be wrong but from my reading of your post you are not adding the file and then clicking on START.
The process is as follows
Load the Movie
It indexes and then switches to the av.Options tab where you can then make adjustments to various parameters in meanwhile it starts to PLAY the file (ie that's all it's doing simply playing)

Then you click back to the Input File tab and
click on ADD
The START button then becomes available and once you click on START the movie stops playing and encoding commences.
