Handbrake not working

thomond2006

I tried to convert an imported DVD file to iPod format on Handbrake. I click encode and it said encode finished after 1 second but nothing actually happened! Wtf is going on??

pleasant Co.

dunno...but i'm curious, how big is the original file you are trying to convert?

This may be a stupid question, what's the log??

pleasant Co.

Open the "activity window", try to convert that problematic file, then when it fails copy what has been written in the activity window and post it here for us to see.

Corrupt program file or codec? I'd go for an uninstall and re-install.
