Video format negotiation failed

[Klumsy]

Hi,

I am using Smartripper-> DVD2AVI -> GordianKnot -> Avisynth -> VirtualDub
I did many movies before without any problem. Now I get this error:
"Video format negotiation failed: use slow-repack or full mode"

When I switch to full processing this message pops up:
"Cannot start video compression: The source image format is not acceptable. (error code -2)"

The settings must be the same I used many times before, as I can't remember to change anything ;)

The preview in VD works fine.

Maybe anyone could give me advice. Thanks in advance

Look at the image size as seen by VirtualDub (in File Information) and then make sure the selected output codec supports that size. Many codecs have limitations on output sizes, such as multiples of 4, etc.

Thank you very much, that was the reason.
