Hi John

Can you try running indytube directly, from the command line, and
pasting any error messages from the logs ?

Another trick is to search in the logs for the actual command line
MEncoder is trying to use to transcode, and then execute that on the cmd
line sans "-really-quiet" and "-quiet" options to see what is the
problem. Perhaps you need to update MEncoder versions.

-- are you on the discuss list? Can we do the diagnosis on there please
for future reference. Thanks :)
