Greyed out?! Maybe there's a problem with the program itself...

Well try to download other converting programs from this site then...

I hope this helps... ^_^

Ell the Ewok, What version are you using and what resolution do you wish to convert to?

More than likely he's using v4.0. I actually came in here to ask the same question

From what I've read, v4.0 doesn't allow you to make any changes to the quality settings for whatever reason.

My problem (and probably the original posters as well) is that the later versions which do allow you to modify the quality settings create videos that lock up after 4 seconds for whatever reason.

I posted elsewhere but I just need a version of the AMV conversion tool that supports 160x120 (or whatever), can be set to 'medium' and doesn't create videos that lock up after 4 or 5 seconds.

HI,

The first thing i did was open the exe filw within a program called resourse hacker.

now select dialogue
select 137
select 2052

now u should have some script in the right hand windows

one line should read

CONTROL "", 1031, COMBOBOX, CBS_DROPDOWNLIST | WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | WS_DISABLED | WS_VSCROLL | WS_TABSTOP, 149, 161, 48, 76

change to

CONTROL "", 1031, COMBOBOX, CBS_DROPDOWNLIST | WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | WS_VSCROLL | WS_TABSTOP, 149, 161, 48, 76

select compile script

now

save exe

if u now loadup amv comvert the audio options will nolonger be greyed out.

havent worked out how to add other setting yet but working on it anyone else found anything out.
