I'm in the process of encoding a bunch of :30 sec TV commercials for my portfolio. I'm encoding them with the FL8 Video Encoder. All was well, until my laptop crashed mid-encode. Now every time I attempt to encode, about halfway through the video, the computer spontanously acts as if I've press the power button, and shuts itself off. Note - it doesnt' crash - it does an orderly (unstoppable) shutdown.
The same thing happens if I try to encode a single video using Flash 8 itself. Ditto for Sorenson Squeeze 4.3. As long as I'm using on2 VP6, I'm boned. (Squeeze works, just fine, if I use the Sorenson codec, but the file size suffers - dramatically - and I'd much rather use the on2 VP6 codec.) I've deduced from this, that the VP6 encoder must be pooched, but I have no idea where to find the file that might be corrupted. If I could find the offending file(s), I might be able to pull copies from another computer/installation, and overwrite them. On the other hand, it might be better to simply re-install Flash, however I don't want to do it, then get some message about how I've exceeded the number of installations and I can just bloody well go buy a new copy of Flash 8. That would be bad. Any ideas as to what might be wrong...and what I can do to fix this problem? Thanks!
