AVI to DVD with DVD2SVCD problem, please help

Newbie problem, hope someone can help. I tried to follow the doom9 guide on converting an AVI to DVD with DVD2SVCD. I left the process running overnight but it must have failed because the ISO image it was supposed to create had not been created. Instead there is a file in the movie folder called 'Encoded_Video_TMPGEnc_NTSC' that is 4.3Gb, ends .mpv and G-Spot says is an MPEG. I checked the log and it seems to have failed towards the end:

Executing DVDAuthor. Commandline:
"C:\Program Files\DVD2SVCD\DVDAuthor\dvdauthor.exe" -x "C:\Program Files\DVD2SVCD\Movie\DVDAuthor.xml"
DVDAuthor failed for unknown reasons!
For details open: "C:\Program Files\DVD2SVCD\Movie\DVDAuthor_log.txt"

The DVDAuthor log says:

INFO: Locale=C
INFO: Converting filenames to US-ASCII
INFO: dvdauthor creating VTS
STAT: Picking VTS 01

STAT: Processing C:\Program Files\DVD2SVCD\Movie\MPlex_Muxed_File00.mpg...
ERR: Error opening C:\Program Files\DVD2SVCD\Movie\MPlex_Muxed_File00.mpg: No such file or directory


I should mention, I just read the readme file of DVD2SVCD and it said you should 'Install ASPI drivers that fit your system' which is something I have not done - could this be the cause of the problem? Is there a way I can finish off where the process failed without having to run the whole thing again? Any help would be much appreciated.
