Getting crazy with strange error (FILE.d2v)

[danjo]

1. I read the forum rules
2. i tried the search option

but I still have a very strange problem:
Everything worked fine with dvd2svcd since ages (used cce 2.5 and tmpgenc for speacial issues). I installed some more tools, some codecs, some dlls n stuff, and suddenly dvd2svcd doesnt work anymore, i always get this:

I tried everything:
- I uninstalled everything
- I reinstalled DVD2SVCD
- I used another DVD2AVI version

[i changed teh drive letters/paths/...]
But still the same error?

Any suggestions, please?

Hi,

Re: D:\[] BURN DVD\SVCD\DVD2AVI_Project_file.d2v

Try setting it up so you don't get the [], for example D:\BURN DVD\SVCD\DVD2AVI_Project_file.d2v would be a better choice.

I may be wrong, but some progs do not like bizarre characters in the filename! I generally use underscores _ where I would like spaces.

This is an excerpt of one of my successful logs:
