Asked By Erik S Trigg 10 points N/A Posted on - 08/10/2013

Hello experts,

Why am I getting the following error message when I try to convert some video files in virtual dub?

I have tried many different video files but every time it gave me the same error message.

Can I get any way to resolve this issue?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Failed to convert some video files in virtual dub

This error happens when you resize the frame to a dimension that is not compatible with the compression codec. For instance, you resize 720 x 480 DVD video to 689 x 480. An error will then display because XVid codec does not accept odd frame heights or widths. Try to resize using the preset sizes.
