Hello, I wanted to try encoding a dvd to divx / xvid for the first time, so I downloaded AutoGK and started working on a dvd. When I select the vob file and make a preview, playing the resulting file will show no video, and plays only sound. I have vlc and ffdshow codec pack instaled and normally all divx files play prefectly fine. So I don't understand what the problem is. Does anyone know what might be going wrong? Thanks in advance for your help! Here is the auto gk output of the preview: [21-1-2009 22:23:52] AutoGK 2.45 [21-1-2009 22:23:52] OS: Windows Vista (6.0.6000).2 [21-1-2009 22:23:52] Job started.

2.45 is the latest stable release. Should I install a beta instead? And are preview files essentially different from the actual output files? I mean when the preview doesn't play in VLC, the actual encoded file will play..? Thanks for ur help
...just as a quick test I installed MPC and tried to play the file in there: same problem. audio, no video... Any suggestion? Thanks! PS I am ripping from a iso file loaded in daemon tools. Could that be the problem?
I don't think the ISO is the problem. Is the 'Audio Track(s)' checked in the left window and your selecting 'VTS_01_1.IFO'?
Attar, thanks for the suggestion. I registered at doom9 but unfortunately have to wait 5 days before I can post a thread... :-( Cheers
