AGK Splitting-Problems only under Win XP

[hendrik]

First of all, Hi there ! and thanks to Lenox for his fabulous Encoding Tool !!

I have encountered a problem AGK has with Splitting the final encoded movie into two files (CD size) that occures only under Win XP.
I have a AMD X2 3800 Dualcore system ( MB: Gigabyte GA-K8NS-Ultra, 1 Gb RAM) running under 1st.: Win2000 and 2nd: WinXP SP2 (on a second partition with Bootmanager )
AGK 2,37b has no Problems under Win 2000 but under Win XP (same System) it happens reproducible (also different movies) that VirtualDubMod in the last SplittingStep hangs. That means the Splitting-Process is initiated by AGK, VirtualDub starts running and after a few seconds (round about 400 MBs are copied - it differs, sometimes the second file is just started) it stopps but does not quit and it does not freeze the system. After hours I abort the job.
Last thing to mention: under Win2000 the Dualcore CPU is registered as a single core (because OS-Installation was under a single core CPU) and so the Splittingproblem may also can be a DualCore-Problem ?

Has anybody the same problem and / or an idea to solve the problem ? :confused:
PS.: I attach the Logfiles (Win2000 and WinXP)

Hi and welcome to the forum,

This is strange and I cannot reproduce it ATM. What you can try is to manually split your files with VDUBMOD (VDM). So if it works, it may come from AGK or XP; if not working it comes from VDM or XP ...

How-to:
1/Open VDM, open videofile
2/ SAve as, browse, change name, whatever...
3/Check segment output file and limit size to 700, 600, 500Mb whatever - video mode "Direct stream copy"
4/ click save; you're done

Tell us what happens.

Thanks.
Great idea, and so I did it. - No problems with "manual" splitting (the previous encoded movie by AKG, and after hanging and aborting)!
What now !?

AutoGK or XP?

You may want to report to Len0x a bug in the main AGK thread, maybe after confirming with one or 2 more 2cd encodes the no-split problem in XP ?

In the meanwhile you have the manual solution :)

For sure it works and is not a big issue :)
But after confirming the problem I will post it in the main threat (that is the one, LenOx informs us about the Version-history?) - just to make it perfect.
I´m still very happy with program !!
