There is no AVI folder when it completes. Any suggestions on how to convert it please?

Hello, and welcome to the forum.
[7/15/2005 2:40:04 PM] Audio size: 1,122,676,269 bytes (1070.67 Mb)Its just a guess, but it looks like you are trying to create a 746MB .avi file, and not transcoding your audio to MP3 -- instead, leaving it in its current format.

The audio soundtrack that you are leaving unchanged is approximately 1GB. Either transcode your audio, or select a different size .avi file.

Hello and welcome to the forum,

From what I read of your log you have:
- Target size of 746Mb (1/6 of DVD)
- not specified audio settings (use mp3 +- 128kb abr or cbr)

So it seems AGK keeps original audio --> 1070Mb, 1Gb !
more than the target size and ... stops :rolleyes:

Either you use mp3 for target 746Mb or you raise the size (1.5Gb or more) and keep the original audio, up to you :)

Did

Edit: Jggimi has been quicker on this one but we have same conclusions :)
