hello everybody,

i've got the following problem:

the .avi file i want to encode to .mpeg is bugfree and runs perfect but if i want to convert it, tmpgenc says that no audio source is available. the .avi has sound though. if i convert it by ignoring that alert, i receive a .mpeg file without sound.

is the sound format probably not known by tmpgenc?
how can i check this?

hope someone can help me :/

Hey i know what you mean! i happen to get the same error...
please does anybody know how to fix that..
thanks a lot!

Hi There the reason why you two are getting this error I believe is that you have got an audio file that is above 44100 htz which is standard for VCD encoding. To change the audio file you may need to change the rate with the use of soundforge. First you will have to extract the audio file and change the bitrate from probably 22050 htz to 44100 htz. That format is very common in AVI files and DVIX files as the lower the bitrate for audio the less space it takes in space. Once you change the bitrate over to 44100 load the video file and then load the audio file and then encode the file using TMPGENC. You will find that in most cases this will work without delays in between audio and video.

For more information check out www.dvdrhelp.com .... there are a few other solutions to this problem but I use sound forge to extract the audio file from the avi file and convert it to the proper bitrate.

Hope this helps

Dear All,

After my two mpeg files are merged together to have a single video file by using tmpgenc software, I find that the audio and the video are not synchronous but the audio lag behind for about 5 seconds, Why? Kindly please give me solution, many thanks

Let me guess: Your two Files are from SVCD, right?
