Hi, I had FAVC installed and running perfectly in my old drive, then I had to clone my master drive since the other one was starting to show signs of crashing (no bad sectors yet tho). Then on the new drive when I press Generate DVD on FAVC the following message pops:

avs2avi.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

Error signature:

AppName: avs2avi.exe AppVer: 0.0.0.0 ModName: unknown
ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 0140f6c0

any ideas? thanks

Update:

After the error appears and I press Don't Send, it appears again 5 times, 1 per files im trying to convert, after the last one is gone HC enconder starts encoding, after the second pass on the first video file it crashes,

"MPEG2 encoder has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."

so its very weird :(

help! please thanks

Seems to Me I remember getting this error myself a long while back & if I recall correctly Mr Odwin had Me make a change within Favc's settings to circumvent thee issue.
Now to the best of My recolection He had Me go to the Advanced Scripting Tab & place a tick in the option Use DirectShowSource For avi Files Instead of AVISource.

But please know that I'm just a Newb when it comes to encoding & this is all just recollection! so if you want to be 100% sure You should get another opinion but if Your like Me You'll go ahead & give it a try just to see if it helps.
Good Luck
