---------------------

Please note that I selected no subtitles nor did I press the button to create a DVD Menu.

It seems that the background jpegs were done, since I got these two files:
TFM_Ntsc_Select.png
TFM_Ntsc_Highlight.png

This was the last activity recorded in my folder. TFM then runned for over 10 hours without any other result.

Any idea of what might have gone wrong?

Bedankt.

try this: merge and cut little avi part in nandub ( 5 min)
and try converting in tfm. add subtitles too. if still nothing.... hmmm... maybe have you problem in your system. maybe your avi file have errors?
