Clarification Request
Never heard of Windows 5.1

However with all the varied encoding folk create, that message sounds to me as if Winx can't handle a video encoding. I would have researched this more but you seem to have paraphrased the error message.

Google that error message to see if others have discussed. Or just post the "error message" in quotes.

"No results found for winx dvd author "conversion process wrong"."

You would be the first to report that error. Time to contact the author.
My bet is it can't handle the encoding for the mpg file.

I've been trying to get the author to get back to me for over a year on and off. They send me a auto response that someone will be getting back to me but never do.

I just find that to be strange,

Thank you so much for your input, I though it was just me that couldn't get a solution.

Any suggestions on what program I can use to get my own dvd movies from my laptop to a dvd?


Thank You

My thought is that the input file is encoded in
Jan 8, 2015 12:24AM PST

The input file may be encoded in something this app can't handle. As you've been at this over a year you've learned about video encoding by now.

I can't guess what you are trying to do. And if you have video encoding issues you didn't address, the next app will likely cough up errors too. I see that a lot today. I can't explain why folk think this stuff is without the research and learning about video encoding. Yes, we wish it was point and click but it isn't.

Video DVDs are all but dead now for many as we can play the video files on the newer players.

Maybe it's not really an mpg file?

And that's why you are getting the error, because the file extension is incorrect?
