Didn't work for me.

I had tried using Handbrake to convert a DVD chapter directly, but couldn't find a combination that worked (even with downsizing, lowering frame rate, etc. I created a .avi file with MP4 video/ MP3 audio - not sure why it didn't work. All worked fine on VLC).

So I then got Media Converter working on my Mac (OS X Tiger) with help from the forum posts (thanks all). It wouldn't work directly with a Handbrake created file either (I tried many output combinations). So I tried what you suggested. Used QT Pro to convert my Handbrake output (which played fine on QT) to a DV file using the default settings. But then Media Converter failed. Any suggestions or tips?
