Two pass for PSP has never worked for me. I have been only using DVDfab since November though. Is there anyone here that is able to do two pass for their PSP? How are you doing it?

I have tried many versions (incluing the last beta - 4.1.1.0) and I have always had issues doing two pass for PSP (3.3+). I have tried on 2 different machines with both XP (SP2) and Vista 32 bit.

In XP I get the following error:
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
Assertion failled!
Program C:\...DVDFabConsole.exe
File: encoder /ratecontrol.c
Line: 1585
Expression: rce->new_qscale >= 0

On Vista I do not get an error message, the program just stalls at beginning of second pass.

I'm running 3.90 firmware on my slim PSP. One pass looks fine... I just would like to do two pass. I'm not playing on TV so I only want my movies 480 pixels wide.

I'm not really clear on why they would continue to have 2 pass as an option if is does not work. I have been waiting nearly 4 months for this to be fixed. Is there anyone out there able to do 2 pass and how do you do it?

Thanks!
