Not converting correctly

[Kaaaison]

I made a profile on the converter for 600 kbps, but it still encodes it at 2000 whatever kbps.......Can someone help me out?

I think there's a problem with the program writing to the XML file. You'll have to edit it manually, which is rather hard to do if you don't know what you're doing with XML. also, it seems to make the program unstable in some cases, i'd have to experiment more to figure it out. Here's how to do what I did:

in your install directory, there's a folder 'profiles'. open that folder, then the videos folder after that. there are two documents there, PS3 and Wii. I'm assuming you're working with the Wii, so you'll select the Wii file. Right-click and choose 'edit'. this could get really tricky if you don't know anything about XML. there's one profile defined in the file, you'll need to copy from <profile name= to /> (which is one profile), then paste it in directly after the />. After that, change the properties that you want. Here's the full text of what I did with mine:

I have try it, but it won't work. A queston is this the whole code, because I delete my code in the Wii XML file and paste this code and than save it. Than I open the program change the bitrate to 600 and start convert the video, but it still with the 1114 kps bitrate. Or I do it wrong :confused:

well, this seems to be a possible problem with wii video 9, since it does the same for me, no matter what settings you create, whether you edit the xml, or anything. It must be a limit in the flexibility of the obviously inferior video format we are unfortunately forced to work with. But thanks to red kawa, we now have a wii media center x program. When you combine this with the new version of wii video 9, you can create and stream music/movies/pictures from your pc to your wii through the use of the new opera browser. I am personally very excited to test this out, though I will have to wait until much later this morning when they release the browser for us in the US. :cool:
