    One thing about winavi is that it sometimes gets sidetracked by other programs. The following programs I know for a fact will affect winavi.
    1. windowblinds - to fix it you need to program windowblinds to ignore winavi and not skin it. Maybe you have a program that is similar to windowblinds that affects how programs look on screen.
    2. ultraISO - this program for some reason was causing Winavi to crash, even when the program wasn't running. I had to completely remove ultraISO to fix it. If you have a program that has control over drives etc, that might be causing the problem.

    I think that you have some sort of problem with another program affecting Winavi. As long as your input videos are valid, the program should work.

    thanks for the reply guys. however i simply resolved the problem by installing an older version of winavi. version 6.3. works perfectly, strange huh?

    thanks

    I have WinAvi 8 final with all the bugs fixed.
    I actually think it's one of the best converters out there.
    If the older version works for ya then that's great otherwise i would suggest an uninstall/registry clean then reinstall that's worked with 1 or 2 programs on my machine.
    Don't forget Windows is unstable.

    thanks guys again. one other thing though, i dont know if its the old version is the reason, but i have noticed that the quality of the conversion is not quite as good as Nero. having said that, nero takes nearly 3 times as long!!!
    while we're on that subject, is 2.5 hours with nero to convert a 700 mb avi file to dvd normal? i only have 512mb of RAM with shared graphics. (its a laptop). would more RAM improve this? i'm led to believe its a processor hungry task, so i'm afraid to spend out on RAM that will make no difference
