This is a rather odd problem. Everytime i try encoding with Lagarith my PC ends up stopping responding and not working :s

Stop using Lagarith and use UTVideo instead?
Lagarith isn't even actually lossless all the time (sometimes the decoded stream isn't bit identical with the input) and also is hella slow on decoding so it actually isn't the best choice for editing.

I'm rather low on space, using UTVideo didn't leave me with enough space to even export much of the video(working with clips, here) so i'm rather stuck :P

OS, hardware, software versions? Could be some combination of that.

Export a bit of the video, encode that bit with zarxgui, delete the first lossless, export the second bit, encode that second bit, delete lossless, etc, until you have the whole timeline exported and converted. Then import the first encoded bit in mkvmerge gui, then click appena, select the second bit, click append, select third, etc, then select how to name and where to save the mkv and click start muxing. :up:

How much space do you need to export the video? Shouldn't be over 4 gb or so, right? Export to a usb drive or something.

About 1gb left, with about a 3 minute video.

Qyot@ Windows Vista, on the latest version of lags/virtual dub. But no idea

Mirks option might do the trick

If only some time of the year would come by and grace us with steep discounts on the already insanely low prices of spinning platter storage solutions.

For the hardware, go into Control Panel->System (or whatever it is if you're not in Classic display mode). If there's a RAM bottleneck, coupled with low disk space, and various wonky things that Vista might be doing, then I could easily imagine things being prone to freezing or crashing. I've had to deal with weird behavior at compression time from my grandparents' ridiculously bottlenecked setup before, and it's generally not pretty.
