why is it that divx encoding is terrible slow? takes about 10 hours. other software is doing it max. 2h (same quality settings). what is wrong? also loading a file or cutting (scrolling) is very slow. please advice?
I am facing similar problems. I am trying to recode 30 minutes of Full-HD .mts (Panasonic AVCHD - 3.3 GB) as WMV and it takes about 11 hours. :-(
Surely this is a little over the top?
I note that .wmv is the only video I can work with on my Intel Core 2 machine with 4 GB of memory. Anything else just judders and jars.
I first used a bitrate of 8000 (whatevers) instead of the default of 1000, but a, now trying 4000 deinterlaced.

I have a similar problem. Accept Im using Xvid to encode to avi's.
When its starts off encoding its really fast at a whopping 100frames/sec. But then a little later it drop to only 10 frames/sec. I have the dvd contents cached so no problems with disc access.
I just updated to v4.6.3.268, but I dont remember this issue with the previous version.
Can you please advise if there is such a thing as an addin or template for TMPGEnc Xpresss v3 for converting AVI files to 3GP format - suitable for running on mobile phones.

Just had a quick question I was hoping someone could help me with.
I use TMPGEnc to burn DVDs, and I’ve generally been satisfied with it. Starting today I have encountered a problem I have never seen before.
When I attempt to burn a DVD, the whole process appears to proceed as normal. It takes the usual amount of time, it appears to be doing what it’s usually doing, it tells me it’s been completed successfully, etc.
But the DVD itself remains (apparently) blank. I put it in and it does not play, and when I check the contents of that drive when it is inserted, it shows nothing.
I’m wondering if it has something to do with how it’s interacting with Windows. I have Windows XP, and while I have burned DVDs successfully since I’ve had that, I know there are frequent automatic Windows updates, and maybe one of those changed something that’s screwed up TMPGEnc.
Or if it’s something I intentionally did, I think I know the most likely culprit. A few days ago, for I think the first time, I burned a CD using whatever comes with Windows XP. I don’t remember the exact process, but I remember I used Windows rather than any additional software like TMPGEnc.
Could it be that that somehow reconfigured something on my computer to where when a blank something is placed in that drive, it can only do something with it through Windows and blocks any other software like TMPGEnc?
In any case, how do I reset it so TMPGEnc is again able to communicate with my computer so I can burn DVDs?
I have an HD movie, 2hrs 40 min in length, 29.97fps, 1280*1088, 16:9, that i want to resize to 720*480. I have no filters set, the movie is progressive, so no conversion to or from interlaced, I am not rendering audio as it is ac3, as I do not have the plug-in, set vbr max 9000, min 2000, DC component precision set to 10, and motion estimate search selected. No other changes have been made. I have enabled all the CPU settings. I am running this on a P4 3.06ghz, 2gb ram, 500gb SATA 300 drive.
When I start the rendering, TPMG shows a time of 21h 16m. After 8 hours running with highest priority, and all other processes disabled, there is still 11h 33 min to go. This seems unusually long, as ffmpeg rendered this clip with audio in just under 1 hour. Have I missed something in the settings, or have a bad codec installed with TMPG? I have been through any of the threads here that relate to performance, and cannot see my error. Any ideas?
Hi
I got a big problem with background audio in TSUNAMI-MPEG DVD Author PRO 2
I created top menu and track menu. When I select a background audio for them (the same song for both) the song starts to play at top menu but when I switch to track menu it is starting to play from the beginning. Even when I switch to second page of track menu it's starting again. It's totally stupid. Is there any way to set the song start playing at top menu and continue on othet menus and pages??
Its not a bug with the program, it wasn't meant to be continuous through out the entire menu. Most commercial DVD can't even do that so you might be asking for too much.
I open TMPGEnc and when I try to add any video (but i mostly do Windows Media Center TV-recorded videos and it freezes right away. The edit video window does not even open, it freezes and says this program doesn't answer. It works sometimes though, the edit window opens and everything is fine, then the next video freezes again. It un-freezes if I wait 5/6 minutes. Help would be nice. I'm using v4.2.3.193 though I have tried a more recent version and still got the same problem, and Windows Vista 32bit.
