The encoder writes what is called the index after all of the encoding. The index stores crucial information like dimensions and frame-rate that is needed for playing. When you cancel the encoding, the index is not written so it will not play. You can add the index manually, but that would require opening a command prompt and running

mencoder -noidx -ovc copy -oac copy -o outputfile.avi inputfile.avi

I can add this functionality to my program if a lot of people want it.
