What the hell's happened to the search function?
Now it just seems to return a load of Gobbledegook, half of it in Japanese.

ASHY

I think you should learn Japanese.
Where's the problem?
hahahaha

Take a long jump off a short pier you retard.

ASHY

Can it be a short jump on a long pier?
I've to think about my condition

Do what you want as long keep your smart ass comments to yourself jerkoff.

hi

if i want to load my avi file as video file, i get the report that the file is unsupported. i have no problems with the launch of the audio file so far.

what shall i do?

thanx for your help!

I got the same problem. I think you just should use an older version.

Do you know where i can find the TMPgenc plugin encoder for DVDx?
thanks

hi
i keep being told that my avi files cannot open or are not supported ...
whats wrong??
i download them from kazaa??
thanx

First make sure you have the Proper Codecs Installed and if you do have the Right codecs then try this "Go to "Options" to "Enviromental Settings" to "Vfapi Plugins" and raise the "Direct show File reader" to "2"...

Can someone tell me how I get TMPG to convert .mov files to mpeg? Also, is it possible to get it to convert .rm files to? Thanks in advance.

You need the Quicktime plugin to convert mov files.
TMPG will not RM files. you eill have to convert to AVI first with Tinra or RM Converter.

Okay, whenever I try to convert an avi file, I'll try it the first time, and it'll give me->>

"Read error occurred at address BFF6A285 of module KERNEL32.DLL with 0395EFOC"

When I try it the second time, it'll give me ->>

"Read error occurred at address BFF6A285 of module KERNEL32.DLL with 007DFF60"

And when I try it the third time, the conversion will start for about a second, and then it'Ll give me an error message where I am forced to shut the program down. IT keeps on doing this, all the time. I try it 3 times, then I have to exit the program. Can anybody help me with this? I need to know what the problem here is. Thanks.

guess not...........

Since months i have this problem: conversion from DV-AVI to MPEG results in bad quality.
I have tried several tricks (like reducing lines, applying filters...) but there is no improvement.
So i would like to ask again in this board, if anybody has suggestions to improve the quality.
I have no problems with other sources... it is really the DV-Source which is making the problems.
I did a search here... but i did only find other people having the same problem, but no suggestions.

Anybody?

What do you mean by bad quality.
Is it low resolution? Is there blockiness? What?

ASHY

Don't forget the golden rule either...Garbage in Garbage out! How's the source's quality?

Rick

Blockiness, blurry... where the source quality is excellent.
Seems like the source is much too detailed and has too much informations in, so the bitrate-limit is always reached.
I have already seen suggestions like using only half of the lines as input, in order to reduce the source-informations to give the encoder a chance.
I know many people having this problem... and i have also seen some message here in the board, but i still do not have the solution.
Ripping DVD and converting to VCD gives me excellent quality, but using DV as input and converting to SVCD has much less quality.
There are also some hints in magazines like using filters... all the hints have one common approach: Reducing quality and informations of the source in order to not overload the encoder.
If you would be able to grap a piece of DV-AVI and would try to encode, then you would immediatly see the difference.

Have you ever tried frame serving the file form something like Virtualdub or AVIsynth and reducing the resolution of the file prior to encoding.

ASHY

ASHY

I did use VirtualDub to extract only half of the lines (one suggestion from a magazin) or lowering the resolution. But i did not frameserve, i simply created a new file and used that as input to TMPGEnc.... what shouldn't be a difference.
I did not see a big difference to using TMPGEnc with build-in filters.
Using filters like noise reduction do have an effect... but they do definitly not heal the world. The more i apply this filter, the better i come around the blockiness-problem.... but then you start to see the effect of the filter, which also reduces quality then.
Because of the very big difference in quality (compared with DVD-source) i am still looking for a setting which helps much more...
And i definitly did not try all available filters and tricks... because this is a very time-consuming work...

I can't see my avi codecs in "Save as>avi>codecs" window.
I have DIVX 5.02 and other codecs installed, they show in my V-Dub, but not in TMPGEnc.
I couldn't find any other advice on this board, apart from reinstalling the program, but what's there to reinstall?
You simply unzip it into a folder, and run .exe, right?
I'm using Win 2000.
Help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I have had this same problem in the past. Only way I could get around it was to use an earlier version of TMPG or do a fresh install of my system.

I am new to this process. I am using Clad DVD, DVD2AVI, and TMPGEnc for my process. Whenever I finish with TMPGenc the sound is not in sync with the Video. The most recent one I copied the sound was ahead of the video by 3 or 4 seconds. Some have even been off by more then 20 seconds.

I do not use the computer at all when I am doing this process so there should be plenty of power to do the work..

I need help???

Mark

If you are using DVD2AVI to create a wav file for your audio try VOB2AUDIO instead. It's faster and more accurate and very rarely gives sync problems.

If you still encounter problems then encode the Wav to MP2 with another encoder and then multiplex it with the Video.

MPEGDJencoder is a very fast Mp2 encoder (about 3 mins for a 2 hour movie compared to 25 mins for TMPG) and has never given me any problems with sync.

ASHY

And Make sure that the audio files and the Video information are the Same length....

anyone have any idea what would cause the write error: http://nathan.link9.net/screenshots/tmpgenc-error.jpg

it happens when creating the temporary wave file, i am using tooLame as mpeg2 encoder, TMPGenc v2.510

thanks

why is it that on some mepeg files as long as they are separate the audio is fine but when you merge them the audio gets out of sink? is there away to merge these type of mepeg files and keep the audio in sync?

Thanks Guys!

It seems that the Merge & Cut has a Problem with Audio sync when mergeing and editing, I would sugest useing something like "Mpeg2VCR" to edit and Merge files or encode the files in one part instead of mergeing after encodeing..

You will need to use virtualdub to extract the audio to a wav file.
When you come to encode your video, select your original movie file for video and your wav file for audio. This will re-synch your a/v. You can find more info at www.dvdrhelp.com under conversions =o)

What?

He doesn't want to re-encode the file, he simply wants to merge it. Theres no point in extracting the audio to wav and re-encoding . It will still remain out of sync.
