rufdymind:
I want to ask you where you find the option "Merge" ?
I think eveyone will see the "Any to ..." box after you select the file.
BTW,you may need to uninstall the program complete and then reinstall again.make sure you use the v7.6

Strange, why ask me where the merge option is? I thought you knew how to use this program - are you not the programmer in disguise?
My last word in this thread is:
The merge option only appears if you select >1 file at the SAME TIME from the batch process file selection box.
If you select only 1 file each time from different directories, which is what I normally need to do, then you CANNOT merge. The merge option does not appear. That is when you get the "overwrite" or "create" option.
In contrast, in ver 6.3 you can select one file at a time, or many, and the merge is automatic.
The bottom line throughout this whole thread really is, why was this feature broken in Ver 7.x ? It worked fine before, so why break it.
PS to all those silly amateur cynics out there, I know Winavi is easy to use, thats why I use it and want it fixed to work properly as it is the fastest - but there is still no excuse for bad user unfriendly coding, and breaking things that already worked fine in a previous version, however simple the program is (and then calling it an "improvement"?

It's very strange for you.When you select only one file,who you want to merge to? And of course,you can't select file from different directory.You may have lost some generally knowledge.
And please polite!

OK, I'll try once more to explain this simply and I will be polite this time as I would like you to fix this if possible.
Most people have many AVI files in different Directories and different Hard Drives.
In Ver 7.x, if I ADD 1x AVI from drive C: and ADD 1x AVI from Drive D: then I cannot merge using WINAVI. WINAVI wants all AVI to be on same directory on same drive. This is the big problem with Ver 7.x.
In Version 6.3, I can ADD 1 x avi from C:, ADD 1 x avi from D:, ADD 1 x avi from E:, and ADD 1 x avi from F:, and add them to conversion list and then press "CONVERT" they merge automatically to one DVD!!
Ver 7 does NOT do this. It creates seperate DVD's if I ADD from different directories-drives.

Why 26 MB of pictures? All you need is one small picture to show what you mean. Use imageshack to host your picture then link to it here. The directions are at the top of the reply box.

@Dolphin2
I tried a few of the recommended image storage sites on the Imageshack generic portal that you recommended to me, and the couple I tried were either unusable, too slow, too many restrictions, too many rules too much advertising and alltogether just too much trouble to be honest. I just don't have the patience to waste time with borderline user unfriendly image sites who only want to use and target the people who sign up as advertising fodder. If anyone can recommend a good reliable image site from personal experience, then it might be a proposition.

Ok,I know.Maybe i make a mistake,that i don't know you do a batch convert.
Yes,the v6.3 can do that and the v7.5/7.6 too.
Please make sure this:when you use the v6.3,you mean"merge automatically",did you play the converted file?Do they all there?I think they will be cover with one another,and will leave the last file only.
In 7.6,you can do this to skip the "creat new or overwrite"box.
Go this"menu"-->option-->conversion setting,you can set here.Then it will do what you select.
But for you,i think you want to merge the files in different directory,aren't you? But,sorry,it can't do this.It only can merge files in the same directory.So that you won't see the function after select only one file.
I hope you can understand too. :)

Hi June, Thanks for your reply. I still think you do not understand what I ask.
For the batch convert screen pic above, Winavi 6.3 WILL merge 2 files from C: and D: automatically and Winavi 7.6 WILL NOT merge these 2 files at all. Why have you broken it?
Why has the functionality been removed in 7.6? This has been my point throughout this whole very frustrating thread, and you still have NOT answered this question at all except to say it does not work. We all already know that it does not work, the question is why ?
Geeeeeez, I must have the patience of Job to keep repeating this question nearly 10 times over and not losing it - where are my stress pills?

My replies to your rather false statements are below ======
Please make sure this:when you use the v6.3,you mean"merge automatically",did you play the converted file?Do they all there?I think they will be cover with one another,and will leave the last file only
===reply == You are wrong, all files are there in 6.3 and they are merged correctly !!
In 7.6,you can do this to skip the "creat new or overwrite"box.
Go this"menu"-->option-->conversion setting,you can set here.Then it will do what you select.
===reply === You are wrong, WINAVI 7.x cannot do the same as WINAVI 6.3
THUS the FINAL response is -
Winavi 6.3 = MERGES different directories
winavi 7.x = NO MERGE of different directories
Bottom LINE is WINAVI 7.x is broken - I would NOT recommend this to anybody !!! DOn't buy it if you want to do MERGED DVDs properly.

For me ,just use the Super DVD Creator http://www.alldj.com .the menu method maybe not powerful but it is enough for me, and even can create sub-menu.
Subtitle is much more easy, just add the subtitle file and choose language .
the picture quality is better than other encoder software, I used the VSO encoder and removed it 10 mins later,because it is very slowly and even can't convert RM format.....

I think 7.6 is even a bigger croc of ...
I downloaded it, paid for it, and its crap thus far.
How long does it take, to convert a simple .MOV to a .AVI file?
File is under 2.3meg, the silly thing has been running for over 10 minutes with no progress shown, and if you click on cancel or attempt to abort, it refuses to cancel or abort. I have to start Task Manager and shut it down... a true pain in the a... .
I merely want to convert a stupid .MOV to a AVI...BS on 7.6
Now, if you know a fix, tell me about it.

Office 2000 Pro Suite Installed
What is the bloody problem with this???
Pissed,
Terry

Terry , have you got the Quick-Time codec installed ? (just checking because you'd need that to convert/encode a .mov file buddy)
