First time using DVD2SVCD. Everything's going fine so far, but after the Pulldown program finishes, I get a weird error with the next step. Here's the last bit of the log:

--------------------------------------------------------
Executing Pulldown. Commandline:
"C:\Program Files\DVD2SVCD\pulldown\pulldown.exe" "F:\CCE_Encoded_Video_NTSC.mpv" "C:\Program Files\DVD2SVCD\Movie\Pulldown_Encoded_Video_NTSC.mpv"
Video pulldown finished.

As you can see, I tried restarting using Crash Recovery. But it keeps giving me a program error saying "File not Found" after the "Converting Pictures from ES to PS" part. Doesn't say what file, or where it's looking, it just says file not found. I can't even tell which program is having trouble, because the error box is titled DVD2SVCD. Any suggestions? I don't think my computer specs are necessary, so I won't bother posting them. Thanks in advance.

I think it's BBMpg that is generating the file not found message.

I'm guessing it can't find C:\Program Files\DVD2SVCD\Movie\Pulldown_Encoded_Video_NTSC.mpv.

Lastly, I suspect the reason the file is not there is because pulldown.exe ran out of space on drive C while it was writing that file (I'm not cetain, because I can only see your free space on C [1123.76 mb] after pulldown executed - and there's no way to tell if that's the free space after writing the file successfully, or if there was only that much space when it started).

Pulldown executed fine, the Crash Recovery log shows the next step to be Muxing and Cutting.

Anyway, I got bbMPEG to run, finally, by simply changing the output directory. Who knows why that prevented it, but anyway. Now I have a whole other problem.

"File C:\Program Files\DVD2SVCD\Movie\Pulldown_Encoded_Video_NTSC.mpv is not a 11172-2 or 13818-2 Video stream."

Ok, what's the deal here? I used DVD2SVCD for the whole process, and didn't change any options except the number of CDs on the Bitrate tab. Here's the log, complete with bbMPEG error code:

--------------------------------------------------------

Ok, so what gives?
