[vipyammer]

Please HELP...(This problem already mentiod before but...).

I am suffering from totally the same problem. Does anybody know why this is happening?

[VIPER_1069]

redlines often point out that there is a fault with the XVID/DIVX try running it through DIVFIX search for it in google "DIVFIX" no quotes and see if the xvid/divx has any errors in it

[vipyammer]

No faulty movie...Already checked this with DrDivX. Also made the whole process through Vdub and TMPEng plus. After this the movie has an correct output...

But I want to use TFM...This program is the first one with a simple gui-process...so please help.

Yes, I also tryed many other movies with TFM...but the same problem occured

With regards,

This is a Codec problem. See this thread.

[vipyammer]

vipyammer@quicknet.nl

PS:
Before re-installed the machine all where working fine !?...
After installing the system with the same codecs installed before the problems where there... ...I'm still cry a lott...

[The_Mask]

Have you also installed a Mpeg-2 codec!!! This is to encode the avi in to mpeg.

[vipyammer]

Look at thi`s...I installed CCE Basic 2.69 and all working fine...Yeah...Finaly...Many Thanks to all...

[The_Mask]

How can this be, TFM doesn't support CCE Basic?

[psychodadbr]

How are you using CCE Basic ? I try and not work for me ....

[vipyammer]

Dear all,

I installed TFM on a clean machine (WinXP SP1) and the following additions;

- XviD-1.0.2-29082004
- K-Lite Codec Pack
- mpeg-2_codec
- CCE SP 2.67.00.27

After installed above the machine rebooted and started TFM...Here come's...a lott

That's all...

With regards,
Vipyammer
