Question - TE30 - Xpress turning my 16:9 movies into 2.21:1 movies. No.53191
saladin  2004-06-28 04:15:53 ( ID:qtm6/y5tg.. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Xpress keeps turning my 16:9 movies into 2.21:1 movies. I never had any such problem using TMPGenc Plus. This program is incapable of just keeping aspect ratios and outputting movies. Can anyone help with this. I have had it with this program. I'll just keep using TMPGenc Plus trial version over and over again if I have to in order to get my money's worth since Xpress doesn't work. Can anyone help?

Check the resize part of the filter menu. You probably need to uncheck the keep aspect option.



Question - TE25 - Resizing for quality No.41865
rustytrumpet  2004-06-25 06:09:13 ( ID:enusq4tnr5c )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Okay let me just start by saying im a quality freak.

I read somewhere in a chat room that when encoding VCD, starting with a 704x480 source will offer better quality that starting with a 720x480 source.

It kind of makes sense. 720 / 352 = 2.0454545 wereas 704 / 352 = 2 a nice round number ;).

Does anyone have any experience with this?


ashy  2004-06-27 19:24:53 ( ID:od.oqrlav66 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Not really because resizing doesn't work like that. Any resizing will degrade the quality slightly.
An MPEG image is built up of 8x8 blocks. As long as the resizing is done in a multiple of 8 the effect will be the same.
Both 720 and 704 are divisible by 8.


B_Racer  2004-06-30 12:31:24 ( ID:0jd4rmr3tyn )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

@rustytrumpet

If you want Half-D1, always resize 704->352, never use 720->352.
So you get a correct AR and the resizing-kernel will do a better job.


ashy  2004-06-30 17:11:23 ( ID:od.oqrlav66 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

It would be better regarding the aspect ratio, but it's unlikely to have any improvement over the quality.



Question - TE25 - Video Glitches (Codec Problem?) No.41862
Sakuya  2004-06-25 05:24:17 ( ID:6y4cusar5hr )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I have an AVI that has some weird video glitches. They're small and happen throughout the episode. In GSpot, it says the video codec 4CC is div3 and the name is DivX 3 Low-Motion and how I do NOT have it installed. I have FFDSHOW version May 8, 2004. It is the one Ashy recommended the last time I posted here and I have double-checked that DivX 3 is enabled. If it is not enabled, then how come I can still play the AVI fine (with the exception of the weird video glitches)? The glitches appear in both Windows Media Player 6.4 and Virtualdub. I'm not sure if the glitches were encoded into the AVI or not since no one ever mentioned about it. I used Virtualdub to conduct an error scan and results are:

0 frames masked (0 frames bad, 0 frames good but undecodable)

I also find it weird with another AVI of mine that plays fine in every aspect. However in GSpot, it says it needs the XviD codec and that I don't have it installed. That's weird since I know FFDSHOW includes all kinds of codecs. Or does GSpot not detect these? Anyway, if anyone can help me get rid of those glitches in the first AVI, please do! By the way, I do not have any other codecs installed except FFDSHOW. I do not have external XviD nor DivX codecs.


ashy  2004-06-25 16:38:05 ( ID:zawftnejbkh )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Install the proper DIVX 3 codec.
This is a very old hacked MPEG 4 codec and has it's problems.
The one I recommend is below. Disable DIVX 3 decoding in FFDSHOW. If you still have the playback problems then I guess it is the AVI itself.

Yes, there is still problems. Oh well, thanks anyways!



Question - TE25 - MPEG-2 Encoding Function has expired No.41861
Loper  2004-06-24 18:44:45 ( ID:g..tlpxkwp2 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I just downloaded and ran the latest version of TMPEGEnc (free version) and I get an error that complains that the MPEG-2 encoder has expired and that I only get 30 days to try it, but if I'd like to buy the commercial version etc..

As I said, I *just* downloaded it the day i saw this error, not to mention that it ran on another machine without issue.

Anyone seen this and know a way around it? Or know what might be messing with TMPGEnc that I can remove?

TIA.

Loper



Question - TE25 - 'Write error occured at address xxx of module ntdll.dll with 00000000' error message No.41859
MrD  2004-06-24 17:09:53 ( ID:a6hyap1bbm6 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I am trying to encode some DIVX & XVID files (.AVIs) with the TMPGEnc 2.5 (freeware version) on a Win2000 PC. I use the wizard to select the video file & then I get the error following error message after I select the start/end points of the mpeg clip or when the program starts the conversion. The error message is: 'Write error occured at address xxx of module ntdll.dll with 00000000' where xxx is a hex number like 77FCC8E1, which changes sometimes. I do a search for the DLL file & it seems to have been upgraded when the PC was service packed (runs Win2000 service pack 4). I have reinstalled the program (or copied it as it does not install) & still get the same messages whenever I try to do things.I also get the no sound problem, that a lot of people seem to be having with the program, even though there is sound on the video itself.

Has anyone seen this error before? I am trying to split a DIVX or XVID film into 2 & burn it on to SVCD with VCD-Easy. Thanks

Dave

Question - TE25 - error: "file cannot open or unsupported" No.41855
SimonHearn  2004-06-24 14:02:53 ( ID:jjeru5efpxc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Hi,

I'm trying to convert an mpeg-2 file from ntsc to pal (basically need a frame rate or 25 fps to be consistent with other video files i am editing). I understand that TMPGENC can do this. I downloaded version 2.521.58.169-Free. When I tried to open the mpeg i got the error message : file cannot open or unsupported. The file is a DVD-quality mpeg captured off a Sony digital-8 handycam using Pinnacle Studio9 - it plays fine in windows media player so I can't understand why it can't open the file.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Simon Hearn

Simon i'm having the same problem but except mines 14 fps and it has a weird codec for the aduio it's like Mpeg43. If anyone can help us please tell us why it won't open the files.

Thnx,
Steve


ashy  2004-06-24 23:28:08 ( ID:zawftnejbkh )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Simon, TMPG free does not support MPEG2 decoding. You either need the PLUS version or an suitable MPEG2 codec.
This one should be fine: http://www.marumo.ne.jp/mpeg2/m2v_vfp-0.6.47.lzh
You must put the m2v.vfp and m2vconf.exe into the TMPG folder.

Dayclone you need a suitable codec, install FFDSHOW then run TMPG and go to Options>Enviromental settings>VFAPI plugins then raise the priority of the 'Directshow multimedia file reader' to 2 and make sure it is top of the list.

Free talk - TE30 - license renewal & zonealarm No.53188
radiotaku  2004-06-24 03:20:40 ( ID:zswl2pempvf )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Folks,
I had a problem renewing my T3Xress license last night. It took some mesing around and help from the TMPGenc support person, but it's working again.

The license renewal had been working perfectly, but last night I began getting a message that there was an error in the license file. It turned out that even though I'd turned off ZoneAlarm (latest upgrade), it was still doingsomething to screw up the reneal process.

The solution was to reset ZA so it wouldn't autostart at boot-up then reboot the machine, renew the license, then turn ZA back on.

I hope this is helpful in case anyone encounters a similar problem with their license renewal.


anton  2004-07-09 00:58:32 ( ID:at0ygnxhyen )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

that is silly, I would refuse disabling Zonealarm for license renewal, I would rather uninstall and destroy Tmpeg 3.0 Xpress than disable a firewall.


radiotaku  2004-07-15 14:26:40 ( ID:mp2nxs/vwtj )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

It appears that the problem was related to a particular ZoneAlarm upgrade. Since I wrote the note, I've upgraded a couple of versions of ZA and have not had any license renewal problems since.

Okay I try opening a file and it dosen't work like it says it's unsupported. I was wondering if anyone can help me please! Thnx here's a screenshot. http://www.members.shaw.ca/Xvserver/Error.JPG


Sakuya  2004-06-25 05:26:02 ( ID:6y4cusar5hr )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

You should go to "Options", "Environmental Settings", and then "VFAPI plug-in". Locate "DirectShow Multimedia File Reader" on that list and right-click on the number on the same row. Select "Higher Priority" until it is on the very top of that list. Then try opening your AVI again.

That is the same message I get when trying to work with avi files with AC3 audio. Do you get that message with all avi files or just particular ones?
