make sure you're feeding mpeg2 files and not mpeg1 which are not supported.

That was it - I did not realize that was a limitation.

Thanks...

I got to thinking about this and I'm a bit stumped, why is it that AGK does not support mpg1 - it works to encode manualy with vdub, so what is it about AGK that make this incompatible?

Thanks...

Because it uses AviSynth and DGDecode to frameserve .d2v projects as uncompressed video to VdubMod. This is an MPEG-2 process only.

Hi

I have a similar problem. I'm trying to recompress a xvid movie, 3Gb - 3h 38min, using AutoGK 1.60 in File Mode but AutoGK stops about 3 minutes from start with message "bad index file". The movie plays fine and it's ok for me. I just want to burn it in 2 cds (1400Mb). What to do?
