If someone has any idea, please help.

Thank you!
It was likely an interlaced VC-1 file and you are using DirectshowSource(). Normally the viewer will simply open the M2TS directly and play back the source. But there are some VC-1 sources that DirectshowSource() can't handle directly from within an M2TS. In that case the only way to view them is to extract them, create an MKV, and play the MKV.

So I guess what I'm saying is that it isn't a bug, it's a feature. The only other alternative is to say "I can't view this". So it's an annoying feature -- but one that is necessary.

As for the encoding issue -- I'd have to know more. How long did you let it run? What mode was it in? Have you tried more than one mode (DirectshowSource & LAVF)?
