Need help using MediaCoder

[singer]

I am using version 0.3.9 build 1858, very new to MediaCoder, and need help using it.

For learning, I am tryign to convert a XVID (.AVI) file to MPEG2 so that I can create .VOB files along with .IFO/.BUP and burn to a DVD+. I see that a new file named same as the original file is created in the output folder but of size 0KB and an error "Nothing is transcoded. Please check log ...". Below is the logger output:

There is no output on Console. Below are Audio options:
".\codecs\lame.exe" "$(SourceFile)" "$(DestFile)" --priority 1 -r -x -s $(SampleRate) --vbr-new -V 6 -q 0 -k --replaygain-fast --quiet

Below are Video options:
".\mplayer\mencoder.exe" "$(SourceFile)" -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg2video:keyint=250:vbitrate=$(VideoBitrate) -oac mp3lame -lameopts aq=0:highpassfreq=-1:lowpassfreq=-1:vbr=2:q=3 -o "$(DestFile)"

There are no container options set.

Please help - I am sure that my options are wrong.

Thanks a lot!!!
