Please see my comments/questions at the end of Nick's excellent thread, "PAL DV-AVI source files not read correctly" (even though PAL had nothing to do with the problem, which, I'm guessing, was an oversight by TMPG to change a registry key).

I don't think it's a problem with the program, but something is wrong with the header data in your source file dumbass

Will TMPGEnc 2.5 ever be updated to High Definition encoding? It's been almost 2 years all ready.

sory about my inglish becouse im brazilian

hi,

I just bought the product XPRESS, and put the disk in, but
it is not being recognized. I'm running W2K.

I had downloaded the "free" tmpgenc, but it didn't seem to be able
to encode a fairly largish file, 2.3 Gb, so I went out and bought
the product.

I would have downloaded it, but I already did that 3 years ago, and
cannot locate my license number, and the msg I left for the support
line hasn't been returned (I've left 2x). Also the support web address,
www.tmpg-inc.com/support/
didn't work.

How to proceed?
Dang. I spent WEEKS of time off work making this video
dang.

the proper support and update area is here
http://tmpgenc.pegasys-inc.com/en/support/index.html

I don't think anyone reads this forum other than a handful of users

Hi All

I had to reinstall TMPGenc after a format anf everytime I try to convert a avi file to svcd the out put file is almost 3gig were as before it was converting to about 1.2 gig,

Thanks in advance for any help

Hey,
well, i had the same problem. you gotta go in setting> advanced > source range( click twice) > then, you edit ur files like you want :P

Is there anyplace to download profiles?
I just want to convert HD mpg files into WMVHD files and loose nothing (i.e. keep the 5.1 audio).
Tnx!

I have been searching and have not found any. There are a handful of guides out there, but none that I have seen on version 4.0 yet. I have been working on doing the same thing with DVD to WMA. I think I have it down pretty well, I just need to see how it looks in HD. If you ask me, I think Tmpg-inc (or someone else) should create a site where users could post their templates (profiles) and people could freely download them and rate them while making comments or suggestions. The best templates would float to the top of the rankings and people could greatly benefit from them. I think a feature like this would help to sell more of the company's product and therefore be very beneficial to them.

I agree. 4.0 xpress is very adjustable, which means it's very miss-adjustable. There needs to be some guidence on how the various perameters are selected.

I'm looking at this product to reduce the bitrate of HD (1080i) home movies so they can be played from a 16X DVD player and still preserve the best HD quality I can. I've been fussing with the trial version for a few days, but I'm about ready to give up. Some guidence would help, or a profile that has been optimized.

I bought the DIVX pro codec to use with Tmpgenc 4.0, but so far I've gotten better results by just using the the little DIVX converter I bought as well.

I like the TMPGEnc encoding better in many ways. But i fail to get the same levelmapping for my RGB files, that are possible in CCE with a lumens setting of 0-255, instead of 16-255 so i can keep the desired dynamic range.

Is it somehow possible to force/change TMPGEnc Xpress 4.0 to use 0-255 level mapping as CCE does, and how is it done?

Request support for Transport Stream files. No audio loaded for (.ts) files.

I opened a high definition(HD) MPEG2 file, 1280x720. When in "cut-edit" mode, audio becomes out-of-sync. I scroll through file, and it gets worse. Can not use this program for editing HD files!

Update: I used VideoRedo's "Quickstream fix" and now file plays okay. I suggest that TMPGEnc add a similar feature to their software.

I get the feeling no one is looking at this message board, but anyway...

I've just purchased MPEG Editor 2.0 and imported an mpeg2 file captured from a video cassette recorder. If I view this file in Windows Media Player the audio is in synch, but in MPEG Editor it is seriously out. Why? There don't seem to be any parameters you can adjust when making the import. Is this a general problem?

after authoring a DVD which was encoded with TmpgEnc 4.0 Xpress, the resulting movie pauses for a split second and drops out the audio for a split second immediatly (around 1/2 second) after play start or after a chapter point is selected.

I noticed this in all projects I done so far and tested in 3 different standalone DVD players, all display the same problem

when doing the same encoding with the same settings using TmpgEnc 3.0 Xpress, there is no such problem (constant quality, 7500max and 2000min and ac3 audio at 256) I also tried 7500 constant bitrate

I tried this several times with different source files and the result is always the same

back to using TmpgEnc 3.0 Xpress until a patch is available

this is now fixed in latest 1st August version

actually, after further testing, this issue is not fixed

TMPGENC Xpress 3.0 supported opening Transport Streams. Version 4.0 no longer opens them. Why? Will support be added back into the next release?

It does open transport streams. Try again.

When I open streams, I get just green display and the sound.

I am having a similar problem. Except V4 will just hang then crash. I sent samples of my TS files and haven't heard anything other than I should re-encode the TS to mpg and try again... I don't know about you, but that's the lamest response I have ever received from you guys.

XPress 3 works fine but I don't like to pay for v4 if it doesn't do at the very least what version 3 does. Make sence?

Please help.

Thanks

Still no responce from support. Your support used to be instant and informative, what did I do to stop getting that?

WoooHooo! Looks like you fixed the problem in this last update! Thanks!


Eclipse

hello everybody. i did a "great codec update" (one of those huge packages of 40 MB) same days ago... after that TMPG did not decode WMV files any more - before it worked perfectly. Well, i uninstalled that package and reinstalled all the codecs i had on my system before (hope so at least). I read all the other questions about wmv. I have installed WMV Codec 9 (the file is running on WMP) and Direct Show is set to a high prio... so what's wrong here? What codec do i need to convert WMV in TMPG - or where can i load th VFAPI Plugin? Thanx fpr response. spcmnk
