    Hya,

    I have been using TMPGenc for a while now to put different episodes of TV series on one DVD complete with menu, and I've had no problems - up to now that is.....

    I have downloaded two files of a tv series, converted them using VSOdivx to DVD, (which I usually do), but when I try to add the files to TMPGenc a warning written in red appears telling me about illegal dvds, etc. The thing is, is that usually when I add a file I get the option to chapter edit it, before this message appears - all I usually do is press cancel when it pops up and everything still goes ahead and is hunky dorey. I know that there is a picture, (saw this when I ran it through VSO), and I have definately got sound so I don't understand why I can't run it through TMPGenc like all the other files I have had. This has happened on a few occasions and I usually just delete the files but in this case I really want the episodes on DVD. Is there any other way of getting them onto DVD and I don't think there is anything different with these particular files. Do you think I have an important file, (after converting), missing. Please help and shed some light on this very perplexing problem. As I have said before, usually it is a simple procedure, get files, download, convert, author, burn. I have a very good copy of dvd. For some reason, which I do not know about, TMPGenc is making things difficult all of a sudden.

    Thanks in advance,

    The Banshee

    hi

    so you have like avi files to start with?

    if so try running the file through divfix on correct errors then try strip and rebuild new file
