    Hello,

    NeroVision Express 3 (Ver. 3.1.0.14) hangs about 30 minutes into the transcoding process. This does not happen every time, but more often with longer movies.

    The first 30-40 minutes everything seems to be working OK, but then the progress bar stops moving and the (Time) "Remaining" stays on the same value for hours. (Time) "Elapsed" keeps running and is about the only sign of life on the computer. NeroVision takes 100% cpu constantly and it is fairly tedious even to kill the process. There seems to be activity on the hard disk, but things are clearly not progressing as they should.

    My computer has a AMD Athlon 64 3200+ processor, 1 GB of DDR400 RAM and plenty of disk space available.

    Any help in solving this problem would be greatly appreciated.

    What type of format are you transcoding from? also what type of media file is it? There could be a variety of different reasons why. Could be the media file is two types in format which would be PAL and NTSC. Could be the media was rendered @ different bit rates making it impossible to align in the transcode process. Thereby it hangs as it tries over and over to align. The audio could be the problem as well depending on compression and/or decompression.

    The format is DIVX. I have the latest codec installed.

    If it provides any additional information it seems like the stall always happens at the same position. There does not seem to be any problem in the playback in that position although.

    I had a similar issue with a movie I was just doing this past week. I downloaded and installed Apollo divX to DVD. I imported both movies and configured it to convert and burn directly to DVD. Worked like a charm. Movie came out exactly the same quality as the two avi's.
