Hi I am using tovid to make some dvd's from avi's but I am having trouble with this one file it seems to do all the processes then this happens?

Encoding video stream with the following commands:
nice -n 0 mplayer -benchmark -nosound -noframedrop -noautosub -vo yuv4mpeg:file="/home/ockertom/Download/wild/wild.U13993/video.yuv" -vf-add scale=720:560 -vf-add expand=720:576 "/home/ockertom/Download/wild/wild.avi"
cat "/home/ockertom/Download/wild/wild.U13993/video.yuv" | yuvfps -r 25:1 -v 0 | nice -n 0 mpeg2enc --sequence-length 4300 --nonvideo-bitrate 304 --aspect 3 -f 8 -b 7840 -g 4 -G 9 -D 10 -K hi-res --frame-rate 3 -v 0 --video-norm p --reduction-4x4 2 --reduction-2x2 1 -q 5 -o "/home/ockertom/Download/wild/wild.U13993/video.m2v"

I do not understand why it could not access the file? It has worked flawlessly on other files. Oh and another thing about tovid when I try to start the tovid gui I get thi error.

Thanks in advance for any help I do not understand why I am having so much trouble with this one file

What does idvid say about your input file?

The most recent version of tovid is 0.29, with 0.30 due any day. Please post your idvid output and try the latest version.

Did you miss my earlier reply?

hey mate just downloaded latest tovid still getting this error

So it hasn't changed from the first post Ah well it happens as they say I will have to stick to the command line

It looks like you have two versions of tovid installed, and the first tovidgui that your system finds is the old one. In a terminal, do: type -a tovidgui and see if there is more than one. I suspect you'll have /usr/bin/tovidgui and /usr/local/bin/tovidgui . You'll need to remove the old version, or install the new one over the old (./configure --prefix=/usr).

tovidgui does not have if strIMFonts[im].find(strWXFonts[wxfont]) != -1: in configs.py, you can see by grepping for 'find':
Only a comment has 'find' in it, no commands.
