I first used this program a couple of days ago and everything worked great. I followed the instructions in the guide here at afterdawn.com. My first pass took about 1.5 hours and the second about 2 hours. I had my ISO and burned it to a DVD with ease. Now I'm trying to do it again (with a different file). The first pass took about 1.5 hours. Now I'm sensing a problem. The second pass has been running for 4 hours and the time to complete keeps increasing. It started out (after the first pass) at 2 hours and now after 4 hours it says it will take another 6 hours. Any suggestions/thoughts?
hi odd? you only need 1 pass if useing CCE encoder, but use film machine its benefits are better, including audio boost and now dsroba which uses 1 pass of CCE but does 4 passes really!
I was using this guide http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/archive/avi_to_dvd_avi2dvd.cfm . I don't think I have CCE so I was using HCE.
hi use divfix on check errors of the avi then try strip and rebuild avi and use that avi in avi2dvd!!!!
I don't think there is anything wrong with the file. It plays fine on the PC, or does DivFix fix things that might not effect playback? EDIT: I just got home (so I can finally look at it) and I noticed for some reason on Pass2 I'm only averaging 3 FPS. I know I was getting around 20 FPS on pass 1. Any thoughts as to what could be slowing it down. The computer hasn't been doing anything else and their isn't a screensaver.
hi after i do one avi to dvd, i reboot my pc! as it bogs down the ram and cant clear it very good... i have a 3gig cpu and a 1gig ram also avi can look fine! but i have done many now and found that they cockup sometimes but found that divfix sorts them out, and yes before this the file plays perfect on pc - go figure?
I did reboot right before I started everything. It finally finished. I haven't burned it yet (as now I'm back at work), so I won't know until later if it actually worked. Here is the log, maybe this means something to someone. I'm hoping this was just a quirky conversion and will not be the norm. [7:04:42 AM] AVI2DVD Started !
