The error probably results from having the same exact file name in the out put folder. Try re-naming the same file in the folder you output to, then run file again, or select a diff directory for it.
post back...

Read the Knowledge Base - How to: Convert to .AMV using the MP3 Player Utilities 3.68 from here.

Step #6 tells you to put a tick in "Try another codec" if you get converting errors. Try that and let me know if that fixes the problem. If not, then I would try also updating the codecs you have on your computer too as it might be a fairly new codec that the Converter can't decode properly.
