Audio Decoding problem

[balbrain]

Hi I am following doom9's guide for Divx5. But when I try audio decoding in GKNot as he suggests, I get an error :
"MP3 filesize 0. Transcoding failed"

anyone know da reason?

Here my log file

It looks like you're using "--alt-preset" without having Lame 3.91 installed. That is a separate install from GKnot.
