Transcoding from OGM to TS says it cannot open Encoder

Postby Cthon » 17 Mar 2011 14:19

I'm having a problem transcoding a file from OGM format to a TS format. When I do so VLC tells me that it cannot open the encoder. I have verified that VLC does play the original OGM file.

Also, might be unrelated but transcoding from OGM to MP4 + AAC results in no audio. The source file is the same and has audio.

I'd love to, however I don't know where it keeps the logs. I'm using Vista 64-bit if it helps tell you, however I can't find it in either the VLC install directory, Appdata in my home directory, or my documents.

Ok, thanks. I'm sorry if I didn't know where to find them. I thought it was a log file not just one in memory. The log was quite long and I'm not 100% sure what it all means but I put it on pastebin.

Here it is: http://pastebin.com/mB1u1qyY
As I said prior, I am running Vista 64-bit. Other information is the file is on a usb hard drive-due to space constraints while I try to rebuild my damaged discs.

Oh yes, the media player version is 1.1.7, the current released version. I made sure to upgrade to see if that was the issue before I posted.

I tried that and still recieved the same message. Here is the new paste: http://pastebin.com/nc88Xi40

One thing I have noticed is at line 228 is the first error, it says it cannot open the video encoder there.

It's been a week since I opened this topic and it still isn't resolved. Just bumping it so it isn't forgotten.
