View Full Version : Newbie trouble converting DV to divx5

15th September 2003, 00:48
I succesfully converted a small dv clip that i edited with premier to divx5. I viewed the resulting divx clip and was quite exicted. I then went and made a few changes to my clip in order to obtain a better product.
First I went to the options tab and clicked on the credits tab and changed the profile to home theatre. I did this becaue my first movie that succesfully encoded had the last 10 seconds looking blurry and I thought that perhaps I had the credits portion setup for low resoultion and that is why the end was so blurry.

Second I used premier and added some mp3 audio to the beginning title section of the clip. This title was a static bitmap i think with a 10 second or so audio track.

I tried to encode several times again and each time vdub crashes. I'm sure that i screwed up something but i need a little help to figure out what. I'm considering reinstalling GK but I want to see if anybody here has any ideas about what went wrong. I have include below a copy of the GK log file, I hope this is what somebody can use to help me troubleshoot.
Thaanks in advance,
VC

It looks like previous VDubMod instance didn't release the lock (or crashed) for the file "c:\PROGRA~1\GORDIA~1\VirtualDubMod\LastJob.vcf"... this never happened to me personally, but I saw someone had the same error...
