Q: I am trying to convert a DVD to IPOD format but I am getting the following error. 
     “Audio Format not supported DTS

 

Normally there are not just one audio track on dvd . DTS is one of them, the mean is Digital Theatre System. But on ipod, you need not it. So when converting, you can choose the other audio track, ie, AC3.

 

Q: I get a “FATAL ERROR: Could not retrieve video frame xxxx” error“.

 

If the frame number is 0, then you either do not have a properly installed codec for the compression method this video uses, or the codec in question is not accessible from DirectShow or Video-for-Windows, and cannot be used with ‘AVI to VCD / DVD’ . You might also need to upgrade the version of DirectX installed on your system. 
If the frame number is higher than 0:  Most likely either your video is corrupted (the video frame in question is “damaged”) or the codec has a bug. ‘AVI to VCD / DVD’ tries to skip over the corrupted frame to the next good frame (it will skip up to 15 bad frames for most codecs, or 60 frames for Divx, where this is much more common a problem). This is most usually caused by downloading video from the net, and having the download fail. When you restart the download where it left off, often the video is corrupted at the point of resumption. If this is the case, you need to re-download the avi in one single, unbroken session.

 

Q: I get  ”can’t initialize avi file” error.

 

We recommend that you install kazaa codecs package, you can download it from here.  Of course, if you can be sure the decode of your avi file, you  also can gohere to download the codec you needed.
If failed again, could you please send your avi log file to cucusoft? Please click “check log” button after you open your avi file, the avi log file will pop up automatically.
