Bad index file

[gust0208]

Hello everyone,

I am a new user to this program (during an apparently controversial period) and previously used Dr. Divx for video conversion but I like the superior quality of Xvid. I have installed the latest beta 1.86 (and removed the adware) and can successully run the program. But after loading a valid mpg file (video mpeg1 and mpeg2 audio) and starting the conversion, it will error out and state in the log that it is a "Bad Index File" error, the log entry is below:

I have tried multiple valid mpeg files and have received the same error every time. I tried searching this forum for hints about "bad index files" and had no luck.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Tom

I have perfectly playable vob file. Yet I'm getting this error msg as well. DGIndex creates *.d2v.bad file and *.fix.txt. under agk_tmp folder. After I've renamed vob file to have no spaces and chage it from cyrillic code page to english it started encoding. It still creates *.d2v.bad file and *.fix.txt files. But it works fine.
