hello, right i open the file in cinemacraft and it says name of film avi-is not a ecl for cinemacraft encoder sp. any help much appreciated also i tried lsx encoder but i burned it in nero but it wouldnt play on my player but tmpg encodings do also panasonic encodings do, lsx encodings play back on my puter so im baffled there was not much differance between tmpg and panasonic but saying that it was a screener i encoded which was very good quality suppose il notice the differance with a average copy. so any hjelp abt the burning of lsx encodings and why cinema wont let me open a file will be much appreciated . ps i think ive got the correct codecs 3.11 alpha and a smr patch thanks chelly.
