I am trying to backup a DVD using Handbrake however when I select xVid as the encoder the application crashes with an "Quit Unexpectedly" error, however using FFMPEG it works fine. I am running Leopard 10.5.2/iMac 3.06 Ghz 4GB RAM Do I need to install codecs to get this to work?
same problem I'm getting the same problem. Hardware is a big different, 2.8GHz single quad core Mac Pro. FFMPEG seems fine but doesn't a FOURCC that most things recognise.
known problem Found that this is a known problem with 0.9.2 and should be fixed in 0.9.3. If you have a look in the Handbrake forum at this post. I've gone back to 0.9.1 and it works fine on 10.5 with Xvid.
This version is still available for download on the Handbrake web site. http://handbrake.fr/?article=download
