You may have an MPEG2 codec problem with TMPGenc. When did you first 
download it? It only works for 30 days from install (except you can 
mess with the system date). Try installing something like ligos mpeg 
decoder, and try and view the .m2v file directly in Windows Media 
Player. It should work fine, but without audio.

Also... a dumb question. Apart from placing the Tivo-VCD Template in 
the directory, did you select it for use?

If anyone else has problems, please post here.
