Error Code-2

[Master]

Hi folks,

after successfully completing the first pass, I get the following error message:

Cannot Start video compression:
The source Image format is not acceptable
(error code-2)

After the message it does not continiue to do the second pass.

I am using GN .28 and w2k. Bz reinstalling, .27 or .28 I can trade this error for no error or a different problem, all leading to the same result, that I cannot enocde a second pass or get no output file, after a "successfull" second pass.

For some reason there is a 20% chance of getting a output avi, after second pass, but thats not good enough for me.

Thanx for your help.

Thanx for the link. Now I got rid of the error message. But not of the error. What´s happening now is the follwing:
If I do a two pass encoding, and abort the first pass quickly, second pass begins, and looks normal.
If I do not abort the first pass and let him encode it does not start with the second one. In the log I get an error message stating, that the file lastjob.vcf (or something like that) in the Nandub directory is in use and it canot write to it. Than the job is terminated.

I have to confess that I changed one other thing, I enabled "Shut down when jobs finished", for the complete try. But I don´t think that is a problem.
