Hi all,

I've been playing around with EO Video trying to convert some Real Video files that I have to VCD compliant MPEGs. I've been able to make VCD compliant MPEGS out of just about anything using TMPGEnc, but this is the first time I've taken on the task of trying to make one of of a Real Video file, so I've never used EO Video before this week.

Anyway, I just can't seem to get a working MPEG out of it. . . I've tried a few different times, both trying to go directly to VCD, and just trying to go to a regular MPEG. Every time something doesnt' come out right. On my first attempt the video locked up five seconds into the clip. The second one did the same thing about 15 minutes in (the file I am trying to convert is about a 20 minute clip) and the third attempt (the one where I tried to go to a normal MPEG instead of to VCD) had no video at all.

The only error message I ever get is a warning about an unexpected end in the source video stream, saying the file may be corrupt. . . but the place where it unexpectedly ends is where it is supposed to end, and I have no problems playing the original source file.

I know I don't have a lot of specific details, but any tips or pointers that you can think of would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for any help you may be able to provide!

Eric
