Hi I'm using Autogk to convert a 700 mb disc, sometimes 650. I keep getting thin flickering lines. One is white an is on the top left of the video. And one is green on the bottom right of the video. I've also tried Dr. Divx and Fairuse but didn't get the lines. I would like to keep using Autogk so was wondering if there is any way to fix this. I have it set to auto width, cbr audio 128 mp3 (also tried the auto audio), Divx, and burning in subtitles into the video. Please help. Thank you. Here is the log file.

One more thing. Sometimes the lines will show up when I play the video, and sometimes they won't show up when I play the same video later or the next day. I don't get it.
Well if they don't always show up then I would suggest it is a decoder issue not an encoding one. Try the files with mplayer or VLC and see if you still get the lines.
Looks like it is a decoder issue. The green line showed up in winamp and wmp, but not the other player. Thanks for the help.
