H.264 Vga (640x480)

[Revolutionize]

Now, I converted a H.264 (640x480) VGA file, but after the converting finished the file was nowhere to be found on the computer at all, what is the issue with that?, a reply of help would be appreciated.

I'd need to see a log but I'd guess you're using Vista and probably running into this issue:

Click the "Compatibility Files" button in the explorer window.

Actually I'm on Windows XP, so I don't think that applies to me.

You have some kind of permissions error. The file can't be created. Try using another, real directory. Something outside of that whole "My Documents" load of crap.

[Revolutionize]

So send the output file to a different folder?

[Midiman]

Yep. .

Did not work, However... I did find the problem.

The fact that I am using an "Limited Account" is probably why it didn't give permission to me to create that file with that codec type & provided resolution of VGA (640x480), so that issue has been fixed.

Problem solved, thanks for your help anyway.
