Binh,
Thankyou, it was your post that helped me find the solution to my problem although I was still getting format errors.
I think it was the high frame rate (16fps) that was causing the problem. It appears some players like mine may have problems when playing 160x120 at the high frame rate whilst others seem to have no problem. I have had error free playback using the medium setting (12fps) on all conversions now and the loss of 4 frames per second is barely noticeable infact it appears smother than the few minutes of play I used to get before the errors.
