    If you installed in the adminstrator account and gave proper permission to the standard user, it should work.

    Did you ever have this problem, before with programs? If not it could be a problem with the program, itself.

    Richc46,

    Many thanks for the help!
    No, this is the first time I have had this problem.

    I'm looking for a Freeware or low-cost program to convert various video formats to .flv
    I have for years used a great little program on my Macbook VisualHub but it is no longer supported, still works with errors, but not sure for how long in Snow Leopard (another story, "The Ugly Mac Upgrade") my luck will last?
    Anyway, I have been trying a few different Windows based programs as a replacement but nothing has managed the quality output of VisualHub.
    Because of the permission issues on my W7 machine I decided to install on an XP machine.....with no problems.

    However, the video conversion quality to .flv is decent (given its free) but not acceptable for my application.
    Long story made longer, I'm actually going to uninstall this program & keep looking!

    Many thanks to you & Barefoot Kid (as usual) !

    Cheers,

    Ty for the kind words and rep. Sorry that we could not get better results, but in any event you have it on XP. Take care.

    Hello again pdxireland.



    As it looks like you're using Windows 7 Pro, why not see if the program will run in XP Mode in the admin acct; have a look at the tutorial at the link below, it's worth a try.

    Thanks BFK but I think I'm just going to leave well enough alone.
    Thanks again for all the help!
