virtualdub error?

[kali1967.livejournal.com]

I've just tried cutting some bits out of an episode with virtualdub, but it keeps kicking up an error message. I started using the mpeg compression, which I'm sure is what I used on my old laptop, but I tried it with the divx compression just to be sure, and it's the same thing. This is the message I get:

An out-of-bounds memory access (access violation) occurred in module 'VirtualDub'...
...reading address 00000000...
...while running thread "Processing" (thread.cpp:152).

Anyone have any clue what's wrong?

Have you tried reinstalling your divx/xvid codec?

How do I do that again? It's been ages since I've had to mess with this stuff and I've forgotten all my mad skillz ^^;;

Well if you only have one divx codec then go to c:\program files\DivX and you will find an uninstaller.exe so you just need to run it. If you installed several codecs or codec packs you have to go to each codec folder (in c:\program files\) and uninstall them. Make sure you still have the original installers before you do that.
