does it affect other converter apps? Have you tried using mencoder or ffmpeg in command line?

For us to help, could you give us:
- The FULL copy of output generated by ffmpeg when using winff to convert your file. To get that, start winff -> Options -> "Pause on Finish". You will see a terminal screen with output, please copy/paste.

- The output of ffprobe on your source file and a resulting file? Run ffprobe in a terminal like:
ffprobe ~/path/to/file

- The version of winff you are using.
