    Help can't figure out this encoding error...

    ok, I'm encoding a ripped dvd using mpeg2avi with the gui. I set all the settings correctly (using nickyguides) and hit the create avi button. The DOS window pops up and asks me for my encoding compression type. I set it to Divx Lowmotion and then it says this.

    AVI frame rate (`-f0') = 23.976 (fps),
    Output AVI-resolution : (720 X 480) : pixFormat = 'YV12'
    AVI Video Compressor fccHandler='div3'
    #7 cAVIwriter::
    avi_fileopen() : AVIFileOpen () couldn't create d:\fast.avi!

    avi_fileopen() : avi_fileopen() failed!
    BBDMUX v1.3 Summary:
    ------------------------------

    and then it continues from there telling me some stats. I've checked my list file and I'm pretty sure its ok. Please help me!

    since there is more than ONE gui for mpeg2avi, you better provide a screenshot with the settings you used!

    maybe a look at the mpeg2avi part of my guide might give you some hints - i dont use any gui though

    'wrong' directory names for example:
    make sure they are dos-compliant; i.e not longer than 8 characters (after all mpeg2avi is a dos based tool!)

    on the other hand your resolution doesnt look good at all!
    no cropping? no resizing???
