Working on a friend's brand new mini he got last week. Installed latest version of MTR, Perian, VLC and HandBrake. I ripped The Wire, disk 4 I think, and got the video ts folders off it fine. When I load up HB it scans the titles fine and I select AVI and start it and then HB just crashes. I made sure everything is the latest version and I have no idea on what could be going wrong, any ideas?
Got a tip for us?

Give the 
TV preset a try. It fixes some issues that i have had in the past, but they were in reguards to AAC 5.1. The TV setting is the only one that has the newer AAC 5.1 codec, when compared to .mp4

They're not going to be supporting AVI much longer anyway and .mp4/.m4v files are becoming much more compatible across the board.
