Thanks for that follow up! I guess the "official" bug is paused conversions never restart. :)

Thanks for reporting that!

I'm having an issue with pausing conversions of downloads to MP4. Whenever I download a video from YouTube and I have the option to convert it to MP4, if I Pause the conversion to MP4, pressing the button to Resume the conversion does nothing. The program just sits there and the conversion never ...

There are still a few oddities here and there in the 64 bit version that aren't in the 32 bit one. So, for instance, I run both side by side. Since the 64 bit version is still in beta, I use the 32 bit version for any "final" DVD projects and I use the 64 bit version for all other projects that are ...

Hey, hey! :)


As I said, since I still have the 32 bit version installed, whenever I open it for a comparison test with 64 bit output, I do get prompted about the 64 bit beta update. I would disable the check for beta versions, but since the 32 bit and 64 bit versions share Registry keys, it might ...

The 32 bit version will also prompt the user that the 64 bit beta is available if they want to download it and they have opted in for beta announcements in their update settings. I still have the 32 bit version installed side by side with the 64 bit beta for any comparison test purposes I may need ...

4 is a good suggestion for the number of simultaneous open instances of CXD performing conversions. I've had 5 running simultaneously before, but the system slowed to a crawl, so I set it back to 4.

Well, that makes even less sense. If it wouldn't put anything to disc, how could it have wasted a disc? Did CXD write something but the disc wouldn't play? Or did the disc not complete burning?


That's one of the reasons why I have CXD write a VIDEO_TS folder output and I burn that output to disc ...

It's a TAD unusual that a movie that should be like 90 minutes has 99 chapters. That equates to a chapter mark at less than a minute into the movie. Unless the source is a container and not a VIDEO_TS. Then whoever authored it as an MKV might have made a dumb choice like that to put in more than 99 ...

I would first check into converting the file. Most likely, the issue is the video is encoded as x265, which isn't supported by the 32 bit version of CXD. Version 8 should support those, but, in the meantime, you can "downgrade" x265 to x264.


VSO has a utility to do this, but I forget what it's ...

The primary thing I am taking away from these posts is the use of external burners. The internals seem to work but no matter the media, the issue seems to eventually appear on external burners. External burners are generally slim models and slims are usually pretty bad at writing things. I never use ...

There's a function called Cut. It is somewhat of a misnomer as it allows you to trim video. Unfortunately, it's not very accurate at editing, but maybe it will work for you. In the right side window of a Title, there's a red handled scissors icon. That's Cut. You have have to use the right hand side ...

Thanks for that!


I THINK I mentioned it had playback issues around 35 minutes after conversion, but I wouldn't go back just to check. :)


Yeah, the source file plays fine on a PC as far as I could tell through just scanning through it. But, it doesn't even load on my Blu-Ray standalone player ...

Yes, UHD Converter converts the file and yes CXD will load the UHD Converter output, but the output by UHD Converter is NOT correct. Forward to approximately 40 minutes into the output and it's either solid black with audio or a still image with audio, I forget which.


At least it's not correct on ...

MUCH better. Less than half an hour to upload to my cloud.

The file is archived in a multi-part ZIP file split at the 100 MB mark to make for less likelihood of a bomb out during download requiring restarting ...

Well, FileGator is a non-starter. After an hour, 0% had been uploaded, and it eventually stopped doing anything. It cut off the transfer itself. So, I'll have to up to a cloud and get back to you on that later.

I'm uploading the file to All VSO Software cannot convert this file in the File repository, but I think that's going to be a non-starter. I've got like less than 20 Mb/S upload speed. I think I'll have to cancel this upload and just put it on a cloud and link it here.

I'm starting to think it's simply a poorly encoded file. Given where I found the file on the HD, it appears to have been downloaded. My experience has been like 50% of all downloaded containers have some problem with them. Most common being audio out of sync with video.

The file in question was on the hard drive of a friend's son who died. He asked me to preserve the contents as much as I could and I found a file he apparently downloaded from somewhere. Don't know the origin of it beyond that and I can't provide a link. I can upload it, but it's like 1.15 GB ...

I've got an MKV that absolutely will not load in CDX. "One or more files cannot be loaded. Make sure it is a valid media file." The MKV plays on my PC, but CXD will not load it. The MKV will not play on my Blu-Ray player which supports MKV. AVIDeMux will not convert it. Chokes on the audio channels ...
