I am capturing my video from a digital camera onto my 80gig baracuda IDE Harddrive, when I try and encode it using TMPG, I get Horizontal lines in the film, but only when there is fast movement of people or the camera.
Does anyone know the data rate needed to capture video onto the hard drive and encode to DVD.
What you see is interlaced Video. This has nothing to do with your Harddisc. It's the way, Camcorders are working.
You have two choices: Leave it interlaced, but that needs high Bitrates.
Deinterlace it, but then you will loose sharpness and smooth Moving.
Your best bet is to use the "De-interlace filter" in the "Advanced Settings" and choose the filter that get"s rid of the lines best with the least amount of blurring, and be sure to have the field order set correctly, because this will dive you a sort of jumpy look in high motion scenes..If you use the "Wizard" to load the file in then it will analize the file and set the field order correctly...
If he want's to encode for DVD, it is NOT the best choice to deinterlace.
Hey, we are talking about DVD! On DVD, you have enought space to use high Bitrates for a very clear and sharp interlaced Video.

no i went through virtualdub and clicked on the movie i am trying to format so i can play on my dvd.......next step tmpg when i click on the movie to place in tmpg that is when the illegal stream format error appers now any suggestions?

I want encode video files in Windows Midia Video (WMV) to MPEG-1 (Video-CD)format by TMPGEnc v.2.58.144.152. When I start encoding process, file in WMV format encode to MPEG-1 format normally, but via some time encoding process stopped and show report: "OUT OF MEMORY". This going on ~ 4-7% from beginning encoding process. My computer have 256 Mb RAM, 7 Gb free HDD space. MPEG-1 file, which got before stop encoding process, playing normally. Why encoding process stopped? Help me, please!
also....convert the audio with dbpower amp to wav and add the wav to tmpgenc.Make sure u download the wma codec from that site also.http://www.dbpoweramp.com/. Just right click the wmv file and choose 'convert to'to get the wav

when i download a movie ie: avi and play it it looks great. when i use tmpgen and convert from avi to mpeg i get purplish splotches here and there..it starts out normal then get splotches, then normal and so on. I checked for angelpotion and I don't have it, I have divx and nimo codecs. What else can I do to get rid of the purple splotches while converting? thanks a lot!
The angel potion used to Come with the "Nimo" codec pack, so maybe check again...There is no other codec that I know of that can cause this effect besides Angel potion, unless you have other Hacked Codecs on your system..
hi all, i can create VCDs from DVD no problem at all but i also have a number of Divx avi's i have downloaded that nero will convert to mpeg for me but they are too big to fit on one disk.
i have tried using TMPGEnc 2.57 to cut and convert these Divx avi's and everything seems to work fine except i have sound but no movie ?
that is, when i play the said mpeg back in say media player there is only sound and nothing else???
any ideas how i can convert one 700Mb Divx avi in to an mpeg and then split it so it would fit on say 2 CDRs so i can make a VCD?
You probably just need to raise the "DirectShow File reader" in the "Vfapi Plugins" ..go to "options" to "enviromental settings" to "Vfapi Plugins" and raise the "direct show file reader" to "2"..You know the movie is encodeing if the picture is displayed in the Tmpgenc window while encodeing...
I have A 940MB muxed mpeg2 file I need to cut this in half, so I can Burn onto 2 cds. I use the cut/join feature in tmpge. I start the cut at 00:00:00 and try to cut at 54:36:00 and no matter what tmpge program freezes up. I am using amd athlon 2000+ processor with 256mb memory and windows XP for my OS.
any help appreciated...

This is a common problem with the "Mpeg Tools" and there is no Fix for it, you have to use something else to edit your mpeg files..go here :http://apachez.net/ and go to the tools section and try out some of the mpeg editors there..
I am converting an AVI file to MPEG-1. I have set the converstion to VBR and the estimated file size is 4.8M I instead wind up with a 14M file. I've tried other settings and always get the same file size.
You can"t accurately predict the file size with a VBR encode unless you are useing 2-Pass VBR,if it says the file is going to be 4.8mb then is the AVI about 25 seconds long?? or is it closer to 90 seconds?Have you set the "System" setting to "Video-CD Non-standard?? set it to this if you are makeing a VCD and set it to Mpeg1-VBR if you are just makeing a Mpeg1 file...
For those who may be having problems using the Ligos codecs with the new versions of TMPG.
I have discovered that using stinky's MPEG2 codec installer (which happens to use Ligos codecs) no longer works with the new TMPG versions as of vesion 2.58 even though the actual codec does show up in the VFAPI plugins.
I decided to try another version of the Ligos codecs which did NOT work with versions of TMPG prior to version 2.58.
This particular version of the Ligos codecs installs and shows up in the VFAPI plugins and seems to work with MPE2 files no problem.
dbpower amp is a great audio conversion utility. U can simply right click a movie and convert its audio to wav for tmpgenc etc. However with avi files u can't do this.Surly dbpower amp can convert the many forms of audio avis come with. Can u configure it to do this?
What do you mean it doesn't convert between formats? Of course it does otherwise I wouldn't have suggested it.
Highlight the particular stream you wish to extract or convert then right click it and up will pop the menu allowing you to select the compression type.
well..in windows explorer u can right click say an asf file and select 'convert to' to get dbpower amp's selection of audio types....its nice and convient. Love it for avi files too. thanks for avimux though....it does the job
