I keep getting a "TemplateImageList.Bitmap reading error : Memory shortage while expanding memory stream" error upon startup.

When I click "browse" for the Video Source, I get the "Write error occurred at address 77F83905 of module 'ntdll.dll' with 000000000." error. It then allows me to load a video file. When I click on the audio source browse button, I get an "EAccessViolation occured in module ntdll.dll, 00033905. Write error occurred at address 77F83905 of module 'ntdll.dll' with 000000000." error. Then I get a "Runtime error 216 at 0049005C" dialog box, which then exits the program.

I was converting small XVID MPEG-4 files (~220 meg) to MPEG1 (VCD) with no problem, then I ran across a file that was using the DivX 3.11 codec. TMPEGEnc did not recognize it since I didn't have the codec installed. I downloaded the Nimo50Build8.exe (Nimo Codec Final 5.0) pack and installed. I installed all the video codecs, all the Frame servers, all the audio codecs, and all the directshow filters in the pack.

I'm running XPpro on a P4-1.5 w/512MB. I can post a listing of all of the codecs installed, but this post was already getting large enough.

I read that the ntdll.dll error could possibly be resolved by installing FFDSHOW. I tried this, and am still getting the same errors.

Forgive me if this isn't enough info to make an assessment - all I know is, I have not changed anything from the situation where TMPGEnc was working like a champ to where I am now except the installation of the Nimo pack.

Please help!

TIA

I am converting rm to mpeg1 format; however, when I try to add the source file, the audio doesn't add automatically as it usually does. When I try to add it directly by clicking the Browse bottom --> pick that file, it says File "xxx.rm" can not open, or unsupported.

What should I do to convert those files?

Thank you!

Use virtualdub to extract the audio to a wav file then point tmpgenc to the wav file ...

Thanks Olli

Virtual said "Cannot detect file type "xxx.rm" / "xxx.rmvb", is there any other way to do it?

it could be that you are missing an audio codec ... try using a utility like gspot ( http://www.free-codecs.com/download/GSpot.htm ) to identify what the audio codec in the file is. You can the google for the audio codec and install on your machine. Once you have done that try extracting the audio with vdub again

I have successfully extracted the audio files (in MP3 format) from VCD files using TMPGEnc. The MP3 file plays on my computer without any problems. But when I try to burn the files to a CD using NERO, it complains about invalid format. Any ideas?

Yes, .mp3 isn't the correct format. On DVD/SVCD you need .mp2.

It seems to me that B_Racer misunderstood your question. It sounds to me like you're trying to make an audio CD of the soundtrack from a VCD.

You have successfully extracted the audio files (in MP2 format not MP3 format) from VCD files using TMPGEnc. The suffix may say .MP3 but it is actually a .MP2 file that plays on your computer without any problems.

If you want to make a MP3 CD using NERO:

Use dBpowerAMP Music Converter R11.5 and the appropriate plugins for MP2 and MP3 files to convert the .MP2 files to .MP3 files. This should solve your problem.

If you want to make a standard CD using NERO:

Use dBpowerAMP Music Converter R11.5 and the appropriate plugins for MP2 and WAV files to convert the .MP2 files to .WAV files. This should solve your problem.

You can find Use dBpowerAMP Music Converter (and a variety of plug-ins) for free at: http://www.dbpoweramp.com/dmc.htm

dBpowerAMP Music Converter is also an invaluable free application for converting any audio format that you can think of including .MP2 files in VCD and DVD formats.

When I try to download version 2.324 I get a dead link page. Everyother link on the TMPGEnc.net website works, including the sample video. Is there some setting wrong on my IE or is there a problem with the site? Thanks in advance.

Is there a way to add transistions or fading between clips?

You have to add these to your original AVI video, using a video editor first. No way to do it in Tmpgenc author.

Hello,

Ashy & Minion still around?

I ripped with smart ripper
used DVD2AVI to create my .d2v ( I don't import all the vob files into DVD2AVI at once cause it would take to long, I just do 1st vob 1 day, the rest the next day)
used TMPEGencoder to encode.
1st encoded d2v file was fine
2nd encoded had audio/video desynchronization

Is there a way to fix the sync?

How do you mean it takes to long? How long It should only take a matter of minutes to create a d2v from a full DVD even on a relatively slow machine.

Your method is not a good way to do it anyway. If want to speed things up then don't rip the audio too. Disable the audio output in DVD2AVI by selecting 'NONE' for the track and the d2v will be created much quicker.
You can then use VOB2AUDIO to rip the audio from the DVD when you want the sound.

Ashy,

Thanks for the workflow tip. I'll give it a shot.

Regarding the the audio lag. Do I DeMux and then remove any padding or something?

Confused

I have 6 video clip want to group into 1 dvd,
the video clip are in rmvb format and converted to mpeg2 by using winavi converter....the clip are perfectly converted.

But when I use TDA to convert the 6 mpeg into the DVD, I found that the video and audio are not in sync and have great different..

i have already tried to use 44k and 48k as the sampling rate....but the result still the same......

Is that the bug of TDA? anyone face this before?

Sometimes when I compress MPEG movies, the converted movie is not complete. In a 25 minute movie, 2 or 3 minutes are left out. Here are my settings:
MPEG-1, 352x240 (source MPEG movie is larger), 29.97fps, CBR 500kbps, Audio Layer2, 44100hz, 96kbps

Any ideas or suggestions would be great. Do I have to update to the licensed encoder to get full movie conversion?

> CBR 500kbps, Audio Layer2, 44100hz, 96kbps

Are you serious? Maybe a Softwareplayer is able to handle this correctly, most DVD-Players won't. And the quality... argl...

Christ, it must look awful. Standard VCD resolution is bad enough, but that must be almost unwatchable.

Try setting the start and end points of the movie in the 'source range' function in 'advanced' settings.

Is there a way to use TMPGEnc 3.0 Xpress to convert .tivo files to DVD format?

no. not possible with current version.

I am trying to convert avi to m2v file... but i just get a black screen but the audio is converted fine...

Just a series of checks..
What about the VFAPI plugin order (Option__Environmental Settings__VFAPI Plug-in)? Which priority order do you have?
And if you try to look at the output by doing 'Settings__Advenced___Source Range' (or Clip Frame)?
Does this heappen even if you try to encode that AVI into a MPEG-1 movie (VCD)?

I'm trying to conver avi file to mpeg file. audio is fine but there is no video.
