    Ok I am not trying to be annoying by posting the same question like millions of oders before, but I have since none of the sugestions worked for me.
    Tmpgenc 1.69 which i am using for a few months right now, never really had problems loading *.vdr files. I can serve *.avi files from virtualdub and it loads them as .vdr without problems. The same is with mpeg1 files. But when I am trying to load some mpeg2 files using "virtualdub mpeg2-ac3.." first get some warning (Anachronistic and ...) and then after frameserving cannot load them using tmpgenc (what I can do with avi's and mpeg1's).
    If somebody knows an answer please help.

    no just a simple *.mpeg2 video with mpeg1 audio(I have no problems watching it with vplayer).
    I'm using virtualdub-mpeg2 to add subtitles to the movie, create *.vdr.
    Then try to load it with Tmpgenc and it says "cannot open or unsupported". But as I remember there were some mpeg2 files that worked fine in the past - maybe this mpeg2 is just uneditable? really don't know what to do

    yes because I add permanent subtitles to my svcd-file, and it worked fine earlier.
    Is it possible to add subtitles with dvd2avi?

    ok, so I have only one question about Tmpgenc - how is it possible that I have no problems loading a *.vdr file created from one SVCD,VCD or AVI file I and I can't load *.vdr files derived from other SVCD files. Maybe something is wrong with Tmpgenc - If you know please help.

    I'm not sure why that is, I just find it strange that frameserving mpeg-2 from virtualdub would actually work.

    it works (or at least worked) fine, but with "VirtualDub-Mpeg2-AC3 1.5.4" not simple VirtualDub.
