problems with 05x05 TG

rustyguy935 · November 14th, 2007, 8:13 AM

Hello all!!

I am having a problem when trying to create a dvd to watch of season 5,episode 5 of Top Gear. The video plays fine on my computer but my software (NERO7) will simply not "load" the file into itself to create a DVD. Hope someone here can help me out,but please keep in mind I am not a computer expert by any stretch.

Thanks!!

Welcome to the forums. Are you trying to burn a video DVD or a data DVD?

By any streach, you aren't

Anyways, do you want to burn a DVD so you can watch it on your standalone DVD player, a "movie" DVD so to speak?

Pretty sure he means a video DVD, but I could be wrong.

But if I'm right, you'll need to use the "Nero Vision" program that comes with the Nero install you have. It'll take the video file and convert it to DVD video format. I've done it many, many times myself and it works great.

I've heard others having issues with this one. RiVER may be using a newer version of Xvid than you have or something.

I actually can't even get S05E05 to play! Not sure if this is a Vista issue or what. I've ran Gspot and it says I have the codec but yet it won't render video, just audio. Anyone else able to get this to play on Vista?

Errrr, I was thinking 10x05, not 5x05. Ignore that RiVER comment.

Thanks guys,and yes I meant a video-dvd. I upgraded to NERO 8 and used Nerovision but I get the same problem. Just an error messgae saying it can't insert that file. No other messages pop up.

I was able to get it to play in VLC player, though it even seems to say that the file is corrupted.

Yeah, I've had this problem since I got the 5x05 file a few years back. It plays fine in VLC but initially it detects it as a corrupted file and offers to fix the index or whatever.

If you click no it will play fine but it seems like the file is somehow corrupted. Windows Media Player for instance won't play it on my comp.

maateuszz89 · November 22nd, 2007, 5:12 PM

^^ It works fine in ALLPlayer.

cvrefugee · November 22nd, 2007, 5:15 PM

You need to use ffdshow in order to play that episode.

Shawn · November 23rd, 2007, 12:38 AM

It plays fine with whatever I have but there must be something wrong/different with 5x05 since it's a bit of a hassle.

Anyone know what's different about 5x05?

rustyguy935 · November 23rd, 2007, 4:01 AM

The episode plays just fine with Window's Media player,the only thing I've noticed is that if I hit stop or when the video runs out,I do get a message,on the video screen,not a pop up window "WARNING: NOTHING TO OUTPUT BFRAME DECODER LAG" . It's printed in a very blocky kind of 80's style font as well,almost as if someone added it by hand.
