Using a new software to convert AVI to MPEG2. During the conversion my computer keeps stopping the process and give a message that says" Your computer doesn't have enough virtual memory and is looking for more so that you can finish ...... What is going on and can I change the settings to fix this.
Software I am using ConvertMovie

Virtual memory is hard drive space, used as temporary storage by Windows.
Go into Control panel, system, Advanced tab, Performance, settings button, Advanced tab again.
Down the bottom is virtual memory. Click the change button, and make sure it says "System managed size".
Click OK, and restart if prompted.
Try your work again.
If it fails again, then your hard drive is full. Delete/uninstall things.

Thanks alot I am about to check it right now. I got a little impatient and converted it to something called"WMV" I did not know what it was but figured it was windows and would play in a stand alone dvd player. After it converted it told me it is"Windows Media 8 Best Quality VBR for Broadband". Before I write this to a blank dvd and make a coaster, do you know if it is compatible. And while your at it, could you suggest a few formats that are compatible besides ISO, be cause its not an option. Oh yea I was going to burn this with either Nero or Decrypter. Help me out please.......a little more than you bargin for....send me an invoice.lol

No, wmv will not work.
The ONLY thing a DVD player can play, is mpg. Some can play mpeg-1 (VCD) and all can play mpeg-2 DVD, but not all can play mpeg-2 SVCD.
You don't need an ISO either. That's just a compressed image (sorta like a zip for video).

Here's the steps needed to create a DVD:
1.) Encode the video to mpeg-2 standard for DVD. How you do this, depends on the software you have, and it's settings. What software are you using for this?
2.) Author the mpg video into the DVD structure. This is the process of creating the .vob's .ifo's and .bup's inside a VIDEO_TS folder. What software are you using for this?
3.) Burn the disk, using a "DVD Video" template in whatever burning software you have. What software are you using for this?

There are some "all-in-one" programs, that will encode, author, and burn the dvd, but I find the quality poor, encoding options severly limited, and burns that fail and create coasters.

Thanks again, I finally got it convert to mpeg1 and guess what Nero, Shrink, or Decrypter want burn it. I thought mpeg1 was the oldest and would be easist to burn. Well now I am trying to convert it to mpeg2. I hope thats work.

Mpeg-1 is VCD, and most programs won't accept it for DVD, thinking it's not a DVD standard. The resolution is, but the file format is not.
If you were using DVDLab to author, then you could.

Load the file into Nerovision Express, and it can do the encode and author for you, then also burn. Not the best procedure, but it does sometimes work.
