Hi,
i have a problem with this message box:
"Write error ocured at adress 00485422 of module 'TMPGEnc.exe' with 04457000"

I just want to convert a DivX-file into VCD(MPEG1), but everytime I start, the message interupts the conversion by 16%.

I have an AMD-TB 1GHz and Win2k
"Enable SSE" is unmasked and "Use floating point DCT" is marked

thanks for your help!

There is probably something wrong with your avi file, you can try to frame serve it from virtua dub but you still might get the error, these types of problems are common with movie files download off the net......

thx Minion,
I've just run it through VirtualDub and now TMPGEnc can encode it into VCD (But the avi file is not playable anymore; sound is out of sync. But VCD is alright, so it doesn't matter ;-)
thanks!

After succesfully encoding, I've tested to make a SVCD, but everytime I start following message comes:

"Index of scan line is out of range(384)"

could you help me again?!

hey...
im the guy who having trouble
with video coming faster than
sound coming out.....
and you told me to convert
asf file to mp2 file...
i downloaded codecs and trying
to convert but how do i setup
frequency and bitrate?
its on 44100 Hz and 256 kbps
do i need to change that?

That will be fine. I know you can't set it to 224kb/s but your DVD player should have no problem with it. You could set it to 192kb/s if you wanted.

Illegal MPEG system stream - This error keeps coming up when I try to encode my AVI file. What does this mean? How can I avoid this error?

>Illegal MPEG system stream - This error keeps coming up when I try to encode my AVI file. What does this mean? How can I avoid this error?

How can the file be AVI if the error says it is an MPEG? Where did you get this file. We need more info.

I have been attempting to encode my AVI files into MPG2 files for the purpose of burning a DVD-R. It seems like the files in question are finished encoding, but then it gives me an error about an illegal MPEG stream. Has anyone come accrossed this?

I have provided TMPG Enc to some friends. However, some of them continue to get a "blank wizard" which makes the Wizard unusable. I thought I recalled reading some posts here about this issue but a search of the BBS no longer finds them.

Besides not using the Wizard (an obvious suggestion) what are some possible solutions?

I think this only happens in the earlier versions. Download the very latest version 2.54a.

In the earlier versions you needed a folder called 'Wizard' with some templates inside it. You should find it in your TMPG directory in a folder called 'Templates'. Check to make sure the folder is there.

thanks
robert

I use "Bink and Smacker - RAD Video Tools"
But Quicktimemovies encoded with QT5 have no sounds after converting. (solution analogrecording)

hope I could help you!

i made a mpge file afterthat i cant copy or downloading bcos mpgefile is very big.pls tell me ,what can i do??

Hi ,

when i encode a an avi movie to mpeg 2
the movie gets to big and cant burn it to cd
i can lower down the birate to 5000 but then the movi doesnt play well

is there aother sulotion for this

i want to encode the movie/avi on birate of 8000


Reply with quotation ]
Use a "VBR" encodeing method, then you should still be able to keep a high bitrate and a small enough file size..


wich one, if i us vbr it stays big there is also mvbr , vbr cq do you mean these one

Use the standard DVD template it uses Constant quality(CQ). The quality is good and it should reduce your filesize.

ASHY

OKe when did c q i got illegal stream format

hhmm

What program are you using to author this MPEG as you shouldn't recieve that error if you have used the DVD template?

ASHY

dont use mpeg files i use avi

the error apears but tmpenc keep encoding

What's the best setting in SmartRipper to get correct audio for multiplexing in TMPG? I can't recall the correct settings. I know I have to end up with a .mp2 file, but need to know the best way to get there. TIA.

You dont use Smartripper for this. You just use Smartripper for ripping the VOBS to your hard drive.
You need to use DVD2AVI to create a project file from the VOBS and extract the audio to a wav and then encode it to mp2 with TMPG or you could use VOB2AUDIO to extract the audio to a wav.

ASHY

I thought the AC3 could be demuxed with SmartRipper and converted to mp2 with BeSweet to be then remuxed in TMPG. Is that right?

No that is not right, all smartripper does is extract the "vob" files from your dvd, to extract the audio from your vob files you need dvd2avi or vob2audio,(if you can get it to work), I think "besweet" will extract the audio to but none of them will extract the audio to "mp2", the audio has to be encoded to mp2 with tmpgenc, then you can use it to re-mux if thats what you want to do....

Smartripper does have the option to rip the AC3 track, but it isn't advisable. I have done this on several occasions and has resulted in sync probs.
If you really are set on just ripping the Ac3 so you can use Besweet to encode to Mp2, then you could use DVD2AVI or Vstrip or the one I have found the best is VOB2AUDIO.

If you still want to use Smartripper to extract the Ac3 then click the 'stream processing' tab, enable stream processing then uncheck all except the audio track you require then click the 'Demux to extra file' option and click 'start'

I tried using virtualdub to rip the audio (wav) file from my Avi with no luck. It kept telling me something about input sampling rate and channels dont match output. I then used TMPEnc to encode the Avi to MPG format this worked great with the exception that the audio was missing. I tried burning with Nero on a high quality CDRW and the burn worked with no problems. The result was great...it worked on my pioneer DV525 in PCB mode (without audio of course). Two questions..how can I get the audio to work and why does my DVD player go into PCB mode instead of VCD mode?

PS: The AVI was a movie downloaded from a peer to peer server (255MB)

PCB mode? Do you mean PBC mode?
The audio is probably MP3 VBR or AC3.
Goldwave can extract the audio to a wav from the avi, but if the audio is AC3 you will have to insstall the AC3 filters first.

Could you tell me how to open an mpeg file in tmpgenc. I can view it on media player but I can't get any other software to recognise it. It was an svcd that was downloaded and I want to encode it so I can burn it to a cd.I don't know if I'm lacking a codec but could you please help. Thanx.

Change the extension (is it actually a .dat file ?).

Then you can demultiplex it (File/MPEG Options), and create the file (what kind of CD ?) you want with audio and video streams.

Why do you want to re-encode it if it is already SVCD? Why not just burn it as is?
You probably need an MPEG2 codec such as this one,
http://www.plmovies.com/mpeg2codec_installer.zip

If it still won't open in TMPG then de-multiplex the file and open the separate streams in TMPG.

ASHY

thanx for the help guys it is much needed. My cd burning software ( ez cd 5 ) won't recognise the svcd format so I do need to convert it. I've tried demultiplexing it but it only seems to get about half of the file. any ideas ??? Thanx a lot.

Not another one using EZ CD crap creator.
Do yourself a big favour and stop using this amatuers program. Bin it and download yourself a free demo copy of NERO from http://nero.com. It supports all formats and is just about the best burning software there is.
It'll save you having to convert from SVCD to VCD.

Hi,


I would like to know, how to precise TMPGEnc the value of Least Significant Bit (LSB). Do you know if it is possible ?


Thanks,
Fabien

To be more precise, this is in order to create a MUX file for OpenTV, if anybody knows...

I have changed my settings to load AVI files and i still cant load them what do i do?

Next thing you really need to do is to provide enough information of your problem! Otherwise no one can help.

There are a few reasons why avi files can"t be loaded, the most common is that your direct show priority is too low, the next is that you haven"t got the correct codec to decode the avi file, you should have divx 3x,4.12,5. The next reason is that your avi is useing a dv codec that is not supported by "tmpgenc",but those mostly apply to captured avi files..so if none of these apply then there is a problem with the file or with you computer, if all else fails try re-downloading and re-installing "tmpgenc".....
