I installed vmware vcenter converter standalone client/server Version 5.1.0 build -1087880 on my pc which also has vmware player installed. I have true image home 2013 installed as well and have a tib file I would like to use as a virtual image. I select local machine on the converter, select source type "Backup image or third-party virtual machine" and Virtual Machine File: and browse to the local file which is a .tib. If I select next or "View source details..." it gives me the error "The source parameters are invalid."
I noticed that the documentation says the converter works with acronis true image 10 and 11. Is that the reason I get the error or is this error caused by something else?
Thank you for your help in advance.

Yes, unfortunately VMware Converter doesn't support current Acronis TrueImage versions.

Thanks Andre. I am failing at this project. I am trying to find a way to easily run acronis .tib images as Virtual Machines on the fly with my Windows 7 computer.
If you have any suggestions I would appreciate it. Obviously having to convert the file to use it in a virtual environment is not the best method for the purposes of accessing it for a short period of time. Actually I do have one image I want to convert and use daily as well so either way I need to figure this and the short term use issue out.
Thank you,
Cameron
If you still need to convert the image to a VM you can try the following:
