Hi

I have a lot of old caps from mono video tapes that I wanna encode to mp4 (x264/Nero AAC). Every time I choose "encode via AVI Synth" I get an the following error in the log.

"Starting job job1 at 15:56:37
Job is an audio job. Commandline:
-core( -input "C:\Documents and Settings\na.NA-JPV7DKGFW52E\Desktop\caps\xx.mp3" -output "C:\Documents and Settings\na.NA-JPV7DKGFW52E\Desktop\caps\xx.mp4" -logfile "C:\Documents and Settings\na.NA-JPV7DKGFW52E\Desktop\caps\xx.besweet.log" ) -bsn( -2ch -cbr 32 -usepns -codecquality_high -aacprofile_he ) -ota( -g max )

If I use Besweet to encode it and leave the sound as stereo, it works fine, but of course thats a waste of space seeing as both channels are identical. I have all the paths setup correct, so does anybody know what I am doing wrong ?.

Thanks in advance.

there is no function => your installation hasn't been properly performed.. you're missing an avisynth plugin. That's one of the reasons why have the updater thingie..

the newers version megui are much better for audio encoder, don't use besweet :) try it, all you need is download, autoupdate all and run.

Is there any kind of bundle that includes all the relevant files ? (minus the Nero stuff of course), Ive done a lot of searching and all I found was the exe for 232175. I replaced my old exe with that and used the autoupdate, but now any time I import a video it hangs, although the audio works fine (even downmixs to mono like I wanted) the rest of the installation is screwed.
