I have not investigated these possibilities yet. To be honest, I like to view this stuff as a black box that just works - can you give me some ideas on how to go about looking into libdv/dvgrab?

This is happening at the very end though, after the video has been processed. In some instances I have been able to continue and ignore this error, although only rarely. The source of this video is a Sony Handycom. On my system (Mandrake 2005) I have no errors and can process the video for NTSC fine. However others have emailed me with problems, mostly with PAL video. Does the gdb session that I posted previously shed any light on the matter?

yes - (decode_dv.c) header parsing failed (2)

if this is happening at the end, perhaps there is some junk at the
end of the DV stream?

A little more detail: I capture the video using dvgrab. I have used multiple capture formats and it doesn't appear to make any difference when transcoding the video. I use transcode in my software (sourceforge.net/projects/dvd-homevideo) and I have received several emails from users about this broken pipe issue - I really need to find a solution.

it's possible the problem is from libdv and or dvgrab.  have you
investigated those possibilities?
