I've been doing conversions from DVB-T to x264 with GK for quite a while now, and have rarely run into any problems, but the problem I've run into recently is, well, nothing short of annoying. After doing all the usual things (loading the files, compression test, choosing an ouput resolution etc), I get to the point where I add the job to the encoding queue, and begin encoding. However, after clicking the "Start Encoding" button, I receive the following error message from VirtualDubMod:
"Cannot start video compression: An unknown error occurred (may be corrupt data). (error code -100)"
After clicking OK, I get a second error message from VDubMod:
"Cannot open file "Screenwipe_Movie.mkv": The system cannot find the file specified."
One thing I do usually do that I figured may be causing problems was my choice of deinterlacer (TDeint), which I usually manually add into the AviSynth script before encoding (as it's not selectable from the "Save & Encode" dialogue box in GK, whereas KernelDeinterlace and some others are), and on every previous occasion this has worked - except now.
So, I went back to the start of the GK process, but instead selected KernelDeinterlace (what I used to use), and for some reason, after clicking "Start Encoding", the encoding process began without any trouble. Which has confused me to some extent. Any help on this matter would be appreciated.
EDIT: Got it working now, it seems - I added TDeint to the .avs file outside of GKnot with Notepad, started the encode, and all seems to be working - for the moment, anyway.
EDIT #2: Well, it's reached the second pass without a hitch, so I'll take a guess that it'll finish encoding without any trouble. Sorry for the bother =P
