TMPGEnc DVD Author 3 with DivX Authoring BBS [ Sorted by thread creation date ]
I'm from Russia, so sorry for my english.
I recently reinstalled windows xp. Install the TMPGEnc DVD Author 3 with DivX Authoring again and tried to open a project that I saved before reinstalling. The program said that it was not her project! How to convince her that it was not right?? I definitely need to open it - it's too difficult to build it again!
when I open *.tda3 file, it displays an error "This file is not a project file generated by TMPGEnc DVD Author 3 with DivX Authoring"
But this is a save of this program!!!! I just reinstall it!
I was working on a big project (32 chapters, 140 min total runtime). It was epic and quality. It was practically finished, being the music for the menu the only thing remaining to finally do an output. Saved, closed the software.
The next morning, tried to open it, but I only got the message that reads "this is not a TMPGEnc...blah blah... project". Tried several times, but it just won't load.
All the settings in the project were ok, even I watched the whole project in the simulation screen and all the videos runned without a single problem...
Don't know what happens... Could it be because the size of the tda3 file (11MB)?
Please, help! Don't want to start again with this, cause it will take years to reach the same point!!!
I see that no one ever got back to you on this. That is a bummer.
Having experienced this myself, here is what I discovered. I opened a copy of the TDA3 file in Notepad to see if I could spot anything useful to use to rebuild the file I had worked upon for a week. I saw that that 75% of the file was blank. I compared this to another TDA3 file in Notepad and saw that it was supposed to have data in the whole file. My conclusion is that DVD Author experienced an error and did not save the file completely. I would have resaved it the night before if it given me any indicator that it had experienced an error.
In short, there is no way to fix the file that has the error. If anyone has a clue as to how to rescue that data still present, this would be helpful, but that is a programmers question to answer, not a clueless software user.
What do we learn from this? Always save a backup copy of anything.
I have various clips.
I want the viewer to be able to start/view
- some of those clips directly after selecting (one of) them in the top menu
and
- the other clips after navigating to a subpage
starting clips from a subpage is easy.
how can I have clips start directly from the top menu ?
I don't think that's possible. You can have videos play directly from the top menu only if you choose the "Top menu only" option when you create your menu.
I have the full verison of TMPGEnc DVD Author 3 with DivX Authoring.. What i am trying to do is I taped something off of TV but im trying to edit out all of the commericals. When im editing it u can hear the audio when i hit play and such but after i am done editing and try to out put i get the message saying
"The "Track 1" Track does not include an audio conform to the DVD-video standard.
When authoring a NTSC DVD-video, each Track should at least contain one Dolby Digital or Linear PCM audio Stream. In the track settings change MPEG-1 Audio Layer II into Dolby Digital or Linear PCM to avoid this warning"
My Question is it is set on Dolby Digital and I am doing everything i do every time anyone know what might be causing this? Thanks any help is greatly appreciated...
When I add (2) subtitles to a clip,
TMPGEnc automatically creates a subtitles/audio-page ('setup') with subtitle-selection menu-items and with an audio menu-item.
Can anyone please explain to me how I can delete the audio menu-item from that subtitles/audio-page?
( I don't want to bother the user with audio options, because there are no audio options )
My video files are of standard quality, mostly MOV files. I'm pretty sure I have the default video quality on my TMPG set to INSANE quality, but when I watch the resulting DVD the quality really sucks. Is there anything I can do to remedy this??
TMPGEnc DVD Author 3.
Created a DVD with eight movies/titles. When playing on a DVD player, one title doesn't start from the beginning, although the source is complete.
Please, help.

I'm getting a buzzing on my DVD's after I convert a DivX file to DVD. It's not the burner either because I've ran the converted file before I burn it and there is no audio but just buzzing. So far I only see this on .avi files.
I did just update my codecs and I don't know why that would screw things up, I didn't change anything, but obviously it did somehow. I just need to know how to fix it now. I think it has something to do with DirectShow or maybe AC3...now sure but it's certainly messed up!
I have DVD author3 software. I am not able to paste the video that is cut from the current clip. How can I do it? Also, I am not able to use a different audio stream for a clip.
When you cut a scene from a clip, you are not copying that scene, you are actually saying that it's going to be deleted. There is no copy/paste scene function. If you want to take a certain scene and put it somewhere else, you'll have to use the clip split function to create a separate clip of your scenes. You can then rearrange your scenes in the Source stage.
If you want to use a different or additional audio stream for a clip, go to the Clip Properties and select a different audio source for Audio input 1. If you want to have two different audio streams, select "Multi-audio" for the Audio stream mode. You'll then be able to select two different audio sources.
Hallo , i have TMPGenc (3.1.2.176). I added to new project 7 files. I have edit them and saved project. Next I closed TMPGenc and opened the project. But there are not any files. Where is the problem? Size of td3 is cca 5MB.
Many thanks, Lubo
Do you mean that there's no clips or tracks in your saved project? Or that the changes aren't saved? Your source files will not be altered after you've cut-edited them. Any changes are transferred to your output file. The project file does not save the source files within it, it simply refers to the location of the source file on your computer.
I am trying to import subtitles for my video clips of the tv show boston legal. When I import the sub only 5 min of subs will import leaving the rest of the show without subs. need help.
Look at your subtitle file at the point where they stop working. Is there anything irregular such as odd characters or html?
When subtitles stop working at a certain point, that usually means there is something that TDA3 doesn't like.
