Encoder crashes when it reaches 40%

Vierotchka — Mon, 07 Apr 2008 19:54:38 +0000

I have downloaded and installed Dr. DivX 2.0.0 OSS final (drdivx2-2.0.1-b7). I have tried to convert several video files (.wmw and .mov), but each time it reaches 40%, it crashes or just vanishes. I have reset it, this made no difference. I have rebooted my computer, but this made no difference either. Should I uninstall and reinstall it?

problems with audio

ricardomartinlf — Fri, 22 Feb 2008 10:01:54 +0000

Hi Im new at this, I just encoded a program I recorded from tv with Dr. Divx so the original file was .dvr-ms about 1.5gb size, everything went right, the file plays and it's about 400mb in size but the audio seems to be about 1 or two seconds slower than the actual video, still watchable but any clues as to why? and how to fix this???
btw the original video file plays fine with the audio on time and everything.
much appreciated, thanks.

Encoder Stops

PuckMercury — Tue, 12 Feb 2008 20:17:40 +0000

I am also experiencing an issue where the audio seems to encode fine, but the video encoding stops cold in Vista x86.

QX6700
2GB RAM
eVGA 8800GTS

DivX 6.8, Dr DivX 2.01

Suggestions? Anyone else having this issue?

Great update

Works perfectly with my unperfect windows vista.

I had a similar problem

anarsist — Wed, 30 Jan 2008 09:47:00 +0000

I had a similar problem yesterday when I was trying out different settings to see what I would be satisfied with. Sometimes it would work again after I logged out/in, or rebooted the computer, but no luck as of yet this time. I guess I'll have to load up my XP partition to convert the rest of my files..
Regards,

thanks

RE: VISTA

Gentleman/Ladies
I'm not sure if you've received any replies to your comments yet or not. I have had VISTA since it's Alpha, Betas 1 & 2 and RC1.... Beta2 was more stable... (hehehe)
For some reason, the Dr. does crash after several encodings. What gives??? Not sure. But a quick fix for me has been to re-install the Dr.... OVER the current doctor, rather than un-install and re-install. I have my personal opinions on this, but are only that OPINION. This has been a quick fix for me. Also, be sure to read the current literature at SourceForge regarding compatibility and incompatibilities with both the Dr. and Codec versions.
Please let me know if you've already received any responses, or if this comment has helped any. A reply would be greatly appreciated, as I like to track all things VISTA related.

RE: Dr DivX with WINDOWS Vista

Charlize.TheronFAN — Sun, 04 Nov 2007 09:43:49 +0000

I'm glad for your comment. I am no fan of VISTA... but have managed my way painstakingly. 2 problems here.
1. You do not have sufficient UAC privileges if you can not EVEN save your files (as they are saved by default into a system folder. Your application (Dr) will not be able to save to this location with your current UAC privileges),
2. Even with Administrative privileges, Dr. Divx Will only be able to SAVE to the default protected directory, but YOU will not be able to access it. Go into the Dr., select preferences, change the default "save to" directory from the protected system folder and change it to another folder... the more commonly used folder is, C:\USERS\piechart\videos\DivX Videos.
Please let me know if you've already received your answer or if not if this helps any. I like to track progress specifically for the VISTA platform.

RE: New Dr Giving error

Charlize.TheronFAN — Sun, 04 Nov 2007 09:29:15 +0000

Konja... This is likely due to the fact that your are probably using the WRONG version Codec with your Dr. DivX. Remember that the current Dr. DivX 2.00 OSS vs built Beta-4 is has known incompatibility issues with codec 6.7 or discontinued 6.7-beta. You will have to use a version within the scope of codec 6.61. If you are using these two together, try reinstalling. Codec first, then Dr. Last. Vice versa if that doesn't work.
Let me know if this works for you.

RE: Same problem here

Charlize.TheronFAN — Sun, 04 Nov 2007 09:28:38 +0000

If your Codec WAS 6.61 before update of Dr. DivX beta... you MUST re-install your Codec vs. 6.6.1... Codec 6.7 has known compatibility issues with Dr. DivX beta-4. Refer to SourceForge Documentation.

RE: Not Sure What the Problem Is

Charlize.TheronFAN — Sun, 04 Nov 2007 09:25:42 +0000

kokoro4....
It's been a while since you posted your question. I don't know if you ever received a response or not.
YES. This is true. You will be able to play the video after encoded after pressing the "Play" button. You WILL NOT be able to locate it... because the default "Save" directory on your Dr. DivX is set inside a protected File System (something new MS has added to VISTA as a security precaution). What you'll have to do, is go into your "Preferences" Button on your Dr. DivX, and select a DIFFERENT directory other than the default. Usually you'll want to set it the your, C:\USERS\kokoro4\videos\DivX Movies
This should Resolve your problems. If you have already received your response... I hope you will let me know. I like to keep track of VISTA specific related issues.

No love with Vista

extremefire — Mon, 10 Sep 2007 22:45:29 +0000

Vista and Dr. Divx seem to have a love/hate relationship. I loaded up 4 .iso files with Daemon Tools before I left for work today, got home and they all converted great. Go to convert another four this evening and I can not get the Dr to start. Constantly gives me an error.

Disable Update Options

Xen-Pu O-S-N — Thu, 16 Aug 2007 15:48:11 +0000

Hi:
Do log into this product & disable the Look for update options under the Tools section etc, and exit the program then log back into it or even re-boot your system to validate that I was correct about this.

Thanks>

Dr Divx with Windows Vista

piechart — Mon, 13 Aug 2007 18:28:22 +0000

I use Dr Divx 2.0 OSS to overcome a problem I have with some movie files that have multiple audio tracks. It is capable of removing unwanted tracks so that I can have smaller files and those only in the language I wish.

Following a hardware problem I have purchased a new PC that has Vista installed. Dr Divx appears to work, but at the last moment when about to save the converted file, it always fails. There has been no update for about 3 months and Vista has been out for over 6 months. Is a new and Vista-friendly update due to appear?

I could use DivX Converter, but there has been a warning that it (and the DivX Player) were not Vista-compatible, but that appears to have been recently removed. Does that mean that the Converter is now Vista-compatible? I prefer the Doctor as it offers much more configurability

I have the same problem. I

SE — Sun, 12 Aug 2007 12:47:01 +0000

I have the same problem. I think I have downloaded the update but I always get the request! And same problem with the encode.

The audio seems to be encoded but when it starts the video it goes part way through and then stops.

Please help!

Downloading the June 07 update & virtual memory problems

The Messiah — Fri, 10 Aug 2007 19:04:14 +0000

1. Each time I fire up, I get a message advising that an updated version is available(the June 07 one) I follow all the links, download from the site , but after I've installed what I believe to be the updated version, I still get the message that an updated version is available. Any ideas, please?
2. Second problem is that the program just stops working about 10% of the way through an encode. I've had various messages including virtual memory too low. Another was the microsoft error report message box. The destination for the output is a 100Gb external hard drive and I'm not compressing the output - is this what is causing the problem?
