VirtualDub error... what's the prob?

[T-Cube]

I have a xvid movie with some corrupted frames.. so I cut them out. Now the prob is: when I try to save the avi file VD gives an error.

ERROR: PROBLEM READING LOG FILE
and:
VirtualDub Error: Cannot start video compression. The source image format is not acceptable (error code -2)

Does anybody know a solution to this prob?

- make sure to use direct stream in vd
- install an up2date xvid release (koepi for example)

- HOW big is that film / why would a 2:54 film have UNCOMPRESSED sound?
