This finally fixed it for me -- AVISYNTH.DLL was missing (don't know how) and I needed to reinstall it from the website http://www.avisynth.org and no more zero lenth file errors!

I've installed so many versions of avisynth but I still DONT have the avisynth.dll file! how'd you do it?! I've got the file but I don't know where to put it, for some reason it wont install that file

you're gona have to explain 100%. I got avisynth 2.07 and it copied the dll file over.
But after trying avi2dvd again, I still get the error, except now it happens in 5 minutes!

I went back to an old 0.3.4 version to fix it.

I found out what was causing my "jobs not done, 0 bytes" error...my pathname + file name for the output file was too long.

It looked like this:
C:\Documents and Settings\USER\My Documents\My Videos\MOVIE DESTINATION DIRECTORY\AVI2DVD_TEMP\

Once I changed it to "C:\MOVIE DIRECTORY\AVI2DVD_TEMP"...authoring was back to normal.

I'm not sure what the limit is, saw something in another post indicating 96 characters, but it worked.

I finally got it working. Uninstalling and reinstalling lots of versions of avisynth made no difference, going back to avi2dvd 0.3.4 worked!

I don't know why it works and not newer ones, but you should keep 0.3.4 on the site, it was really hard to find to download!
