glibc detected : Invalid Pointer Error

Hi all,
I am trying to convert an avi file via transcode. My exact command is:

Code:

transcode -i Sun1.avi -y ffmpeg --export_prof dvd-ntsc --export_asr 3 -o Sun1 -D0 -b224 -N 0x2000 -m Sun1.ac3 -J modfps=clonetype=3 --export_fps 29.97

I have used this exact command to convert 2 files previously, on this same machine yesterday.

Now when I run this command I receive the error message:

Code:

[mpeg2video @ 0xb576d188]rc buffer underflow

[mpeg4 @ 0xb576d188]Error, header damaged or not MPEG4 header (f_code=0)

[mpeg4 @ 0xb576d188]header damaged

[transcode] warning : [import_ffmpeg.so] frame decoding failed

*** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0xb3944008 ***| 0| 0) 

Aborted

What should I do about this error? I need to convert the file to make it into a DVD. This command splits the video into 2 files (Sound and Video). Then later I will put it back together. Previously I used the command:

Code:

mencoder -o Sat2.avi -ovc lavc -lavcopts vbitrate=5000:vhq -ffourcc DX50 -oac pcm -srate 48000 -ofps 29.97 *Saturday*2.wmv

This converted my wmv to avi so that i can later split it up and convert it to DVD format. If you have any questions please let me know.

Thanks,

it looks like thats a bad file can you go back to the begining and recreate it ?

tried it 3 different times from wmv to avi and that converts fine. But then splitting the avi up into audio and video it freaks. I did the same thing with a few other wmv files and they worked fine. I am gonna try and remake the wmv that fails. I will let you know what happens.
