I encoded from a 7gb AVI file (with Huffyuv codec). CCE and TMPGENC can both read the avi easily, but the outputted mpg file doesnt play but crashes windows media player (other mpgs encoded with the programs play, and a small segment encoded from that same AVI file also plays). However, the mpg does play back in the small preview window in Windows Explorer! whaddaya know...

Could it be related to the original 7gb AVI's file size? But the resulting mpg is only 400mb... :P

any help greatly appreciated!! thanks!


PS: This is the error I get in Scenarist when I want to import the mpg file:
Error E:\Film\MusicBox\AdjustmentPAL.mp2
Error : Frame rate (3 = reserved) is wrong.
