DeVeDe error

[nigelc]

Hello,
Using Mageia 2 I am Unable to copy a .avi file to the dvd.
It gets error "Conversion Failed. It seems a bug a Mencoder."
Is there another way to make a dvd from an avi file?

cheers
Nigel

Hi,
devede will tell you (us) more about the error if you run it from a terminal.

BTW you can use growisofs (from a terminal) and its friends to make a dvd,
but you have to do some steps manullay

here some guideline:

Well,

I'm not an audio expert,
but it seems that ffmpeg as not more the -newaudio option

http://ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-user ... 03213.html

but devede is still using it

also ffmpeg could have changed name but the problem could be in the file itself

I think you should fill a bug:

[nigelc]

A bug report will be filed.
I managed to copy it to a dvd using puppy linux.
