MVP working fine for many months now transoding stops

[jonrigg68]

I have been using MVP with Transcoding of AVIs for some time now without any bother, so I know it is not a set up issue. But this morning I can not play any file that requires transcoding for more than a few minutes.

If I start a movie it plays fine, and if I look at the output mpg it grows fine, sometimes up to 30 mins, although has been as low as 5 mins. The MVP however will stop playing the file and reboot. I have seen many posts but they seem related to setting up, whereas my has been working flawlessly.

Any way I have looked at the MVP exe log and the iportant part pasted below:

Just a guess: do you have enough harddisk space?

[jonrigg68]

I have enough drive space but, the "cyclic redundancy check" got me thinking, so I changed the output file location to a different hard drive and it works.... might be time to back up the contents on the other drive I think!

thanks any ways

Ok, I'm glad you got it working again. It's always nice to make people think.

cyclic redundancy check could mean a corrupt sector. I've seen it mostly when trying to backup DVDs. Some backup software will save it as an ISO with the copy protection bogus sectors in, so you still get those errors.
