Check where you are encoding the files to. does the folder have any special properties? shared at all?

My latest baffle, is grabbing source from a drive, and encoding it to that same drive, but in a DropBox shared folder. For some reason, it NEVER allows for the final creation of the mp4 file, and will often leave a bunch of separate numerically named files laying all over the place in the destination folder, but no mp4s.

I chalked it up to the DropBox grabbing and using the file before it was ready, and since then, have had no issues using the same drive for source and encode.

Hey there,

Just a quick question to see if anybody else is having this problem - I had to take about 360 MOV files and encode them as lower res mp4 files. I have tried this using the iPhone 360p preset as well as an android phone 360p preset. While it worked fine for the first 150 or so, it conked out. Now it goes through all the motions but creates 0kb mp4 files - nothing gets encoded.

Is this a "trash the preferences" kinda deal? I'm a bit confused why it would work then not work. Restarting isn't helping.

Thanks, guys!
