Can anyone help me.....

Do not use MPEG2DEC.dll but MPEG2DEC3.dll

See in the option of Moviestacker, you will find a settings for that.

That didnt help, anymore ideas.......

Wich tool (and version) did you use to make the d2v file ?

Get DVD2AVI 1.77.3, and make your project file again.

-kwag

I am using DVD2AVI version 1.77.3

Erase the d2v and redo it please. Tell us the result.

Ok, Ill redo it later today

OK, havent been able to get on the net, past few days, anyways I created another d2v, same thing came up in TMPGEnc.

Anymore ideas ?

I haven't any Problems with the version 1.76. Use this and you haven't any problems. :wink:

I cant seem to find that version, links ?

Look here:

Thanks, it worked, but now it starts to encode the movie but skips loads out, and the estimated time to encode the whole movie is like 3mins

Any ideas on this new problem ?

If you followed EM's advise and are now using DVD2AVI 1.76 the now you really have to erase and redo
your project.
That should do it.
Cheers

That's Sampler working, it's part of the file size prediction process.

OK I made the sampler, its 5.41mb overall, isnt that a bit low ?, thats for 1:30 min of film

anyways the film is 93 mins long, so what do i do now ?

Comment or delete the following line:
This line, as Boulder already said, is for prediction purposes.

OK, Done that

So how do i work out the CQ didnt or has moviestacker done that for me in the script

Look at the CQMatic forum. Moviestacker was developed before CQMatic was there, that's because it is still adding the sampler line.
