I have never had this problem. Have you tried restarting windows?

Yes. I also tried 3 different PC's and all does the same. I believe it is either the amount of episodes (17000) or something inside one of the season folders even though all where generated with TvRename.

Still have no clue! Maybe try to split your total files into two directoies and try one at a time. My Maximum / run was 3000 ( I think)

Thanks Lupissimo,

Will try that and see.

Any chance you might have stumbled upon a solution for osx.

Unfortunately, this free tool https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/10603/avifourccchangerx does not work any longer

Yeh I been looking into this.. Unfortunately the only way to run PPC apps on the later osx's would be using a virtual machine of older Osx's.. Defeating the purpose as you might as well have installed a Windows based virtual machine..

The developer's email no longer works and it seems it's been abandoned. Really hope some cocoa developer can code us an intel version.. Unless someone has an easier solution for us Mac users? Anyone?

I've spent a few hours searching for a mac solution to no avail.

I'll use handbrake to convert every avi to mp4. It will take time but probably a longer term solution.

Cheers mate

I am trying lupissimo's tool but when I launch the .exe the command window closes immediately.

I am using a windows 7 laptop 64-bit with paragon to access the HFS+ drive hosting my movies. Any advice will be highly appreciated.

PS: FCCtool.exe works fine but you have to go to all your folders one by one and the batch created by Mr L is quite elegant

[Lupissimo]

  Do you still have a problem   Or does your PS mean, you solved your problem??

[ch90]

Hi Lupissimo,

I still have an issue  

lupos_fourcc.exe command window disappear immediately after being launched and I've no idea why

[ch90]

When I try to launch it from the command prompt I have the following error message "RPC server is unavailable", Damn!

[Lupissimo]

As I am not familiar with paragon, I assume it is a connection problem to your shares. I have my share on a NAS and all drives are connected under win7 as networkdrives F:,G:etc. I would try just to test copying some movies to your local drive on the laptop to see if that works and take it from there e.g. find out whether it is a connectio issue.

[ch90]

Might be, thanks for the tip I'll test a few things along those lines.

It works fine on my PC @ work! no clue why it crashes with my laptop
