potwnc Posted September 4, 2005 Report Share Posted September 4, 2005 Has anyone tried using a PTE .avi output file as input to WME 9? When I try this WME 9 crashes (the error message is that it is trying to write memory at location 0).Igor, is this a bug with the way PTE writes .avi files?

potwnc Posted September 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 Igor,I've waited a few days now and I see no e-mail from you. Anyway the problem is that WME just keeps on consuming virtual memory, no matter how high I set my virtual memory in Windows XP SP2. Then it eventually just crashes with an error message that it couldn't read a memory location.E-mail me if you need more detail.Ray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I tried with File -> New -> Convert a file -> "File download (computer playback)" - > High definition 5mbps VBR, 1280x720)7) What duration of slide-show and is it synchronized?8) Will the problem appears if you try with another project of slide-show?This will help us to find exact reason of the problem and prepare newPTE version during nearest days.

potwnc Posted September 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 My apologies to everyone - I spoke too soon. PTE's .avi files can be encoded just fine with WME. WME, it seems, does not play well with others. So if anyone plans to use it, plan on having a PC with little or no other software on it.Ray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michel Posted September 27, 2005 Report Share Posted September 27, 2005 As said in another topic, the ouput .avi is, for the moment, the best soluce. You can to choice, after, your own encoder or software to burn DVD.The ouput quality is excellent and the "PTE codec" very well adjusted, always for many softwares.

BluRay and HD-DVD are a long way off - probably years before either is available at consumer prices. WMV HD is here today and the quality is excellent.

Insty Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 I've been using WMEnc for some time now, and it workded fine, but for some reason it started crashing randomly when i try to create a new session/change properties, load file etc.I think it mite have to do with any changes in systems codecs?WMP version is 9 (installing 10 as writing).Anyone else had this problem?It seems to be related to .avi files, althought they are suported, because if i try to broacast a .wmv file everything works well. But if i open the .avi file in WMP it runs well both video and music.Is it codec related?By the way, WMP 10 didn't help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
