Another error

I captured a VHS in AVI with Pinnacle Studio, then I created a new project in VMS4. At the end of the rendering I got the following message:

"An error occured while creating the media file.
Unable to mix audio. The operation timed out."

What the hell is it?

It's a pretty basic question but, What type of AVI did you capture to?

Ideally (and I have to assume Studio supports this) you would like your VHS saved as a MJPEG/AVI.

Another possibility is that the audio sample rate isn't compatible. Make sure that the audio in your original AVI and in your settings for Movie Studio are set to a rate of 44,100 and 16 Mhz.

I've not had a lot of experience with capturing VHS, but I know this subject comes up sometimes. Have a look at this thread, for instance:
