when i load my avi in tmpg plus i get error of illegal at mp43mod.dll. ican play this in win media, any help please?

It sounds like an error in your Mpeg4 codec, Maybe try re-installing the Mpeg4 codec or installing "FFDShow Decoder" and configure it to decode Mpeg-4 files...Cheers

i checked site of BitVice MPEG encoder ( http://www.innobits.com )and i found sone nice features to implement:

1. Adaptive GOP structure
2. Net Server based compressor engine EPC/UNIX/MAC clients

what do you think?

That encoder seems to only be For Mac and allmost all encoders use an adaptive GOP structure cuz all Gop structures vary somewhat depending on the source file, That encoder doesn"t seem like anything really special and it doesn"t seem to have any thing really that much different than other High end encoders but being on the Mac Platform I guess we will never know...Cheers

I have been using TMPGenc perfectly for months, then one day it took 30 minutes to just START the app (disc drive spinning like crazy, 100% cpu load). Once loaded it would take another 30 mins to load a DVD or MPEG file. After that processing was normal again, around 14 hrs for 90 min of video.

Any ideas why the excessive load and browse times? I've deinstalled and reinstalled to no avail. No further hardware changes to the PC.

512MB DDR 300 memory
120GB HDD
P4 2.4Ghz

Thanks,

Well if it is Takeing a Long time to load Mpeg2 or Vob files then i would go to "options" to "enviromental settings" to "vfapi plugins" and Raise the Priority or the "CRI Mpeg2 decoder" to say "2"...But if that doesn"t help then I would do it the Proper way and Not load the Vob or Mpeg2 files into Tmpgenc, Instead I would use "DVD2AVI 1.76" to Frameserve the Mpeg2 video to Tmpgenc, This is Much Faster than Loading the Mpeg2/Vob files directly into Tmpgenc and I seems to get better results this way....But if you do not want to learn a better way which a Lot of Poeple don"t you can try installing this Mpeg2 decoder for Tmpgenc:"http://www.marumo.ne.jp/mpeg2/m2v_vfp-0.6.42.lzh" I think it is better than the one that comes with Tmpgenc and it comes with a simple Mpeg editor...Cheers

Where do I input the serial number?

You need the Plus-Version for typing in the Number, not the Test-Version.

I am usung the wizard in tmpgenc to create a DVd for ntsc tv.
the movie files are divx which i have downloaded...
Is there a way to tell what the source video settings should be with out guessing. I think tmpgenc detects the wrong ones. I would like to know how to be able to tell what the original aspect ratio and frame settings are in the source file. Also, should the output file aspect ratio be the same as the source, in other wards if it is 19:6 can i make it 4:3...etc?
thanks

Load into vdub, select file > file information

I re-encoded avi into mpeg and noticed that the audio get shifted substantially (2 sec) toward the beginning (sound before action).
The shift occured rigt from the very beginning (the sound starts earlier that in should).
This is really frustration, since there is no way to test this before the whole job is done.
Are there any ways to make sound-video sync less enigmatic and less problematic?

My second question is about the automatic source setting. The user below was advised not to trust TMPGEnc automatic settings in the source stream because it "usually get sit wrong". Isn't it outrageous? Is there a simple and detailes explanation of these options? Also Video movie or Film movie. Although explained in help, its still unclear. If I have an DivX avi with a 23.97 fps animation, is it "Video" or "Film"? When I say Film, TMPG perforem reverse telecine to convert it to NTSC. Why? Shouldn't it telecine it to convert from to the higher NTSC 30fps rate?

Alex.

23.976 FpS is FILM-Source. TMPGEnc can handle this fine, but you have to do some preparations.
Settings -> Advanced -> Do not Frame rate conversion
This have to be activated.

Setting -> Video
Set Encode Mode to 3:2 pulldown when playback
Set Frame rate to 23.976 (internally 29.97 fps)

I converted a .avi file to .mpg, and halfway through the .mpg file the audio becomes distored. The audio is fine all the way through the .avi, so I don't understand why it is distorted in the .mpg. I tested this by playing both files in Windows Media Player. I have never had this problem with a file before.

Thanks for any ideas on how to correct this.

If you go to "options" to "Enviromental settings" to "Audio engine" and at the Bottom under "Sample Rate converter" choose "High Quality" then this should Produce better Quality audio, But Idealy to get the best audio quality I would just do the audio encodeing useing a Totally seperate program cuz Tmpgenc"s audio encoder isn"t the best quality, you can also get external audio plugins for Tmpgenc....Cheers

I made a movie to dvd using the wizard...but the movie looks squished on my screen. Does the wizard not automatically pick the right format size for the source, in this case it came up with VGA 1:1. Do i need to change anything or is there a way to tell what format the original is in?
Thanks Again

No, don't rely on TMPG to pick the right source ratio as it usually gets it wrong. It is quite likely your source is 16:9, if it's obviously not then it will be 4:3.

thanks...ill give it a try
One more thing..I also noticed sound was quite tinny...is that the source? I seperated the sound and vid with Virtual dub
thanks

Go to the audio tab in the Enviromental settings and set the sample rate converter to high quality.
