Is there a way to copy all of the text attributes from one menu item to another item(s)? I see a way to copy effects, but it would be very useful to format one item, like an episode in a TV series, then apply that formatting to the remaining items. I think I must be missing something, as that is a feature of some other authoring tools.

The best thing you can do is use the batch font edit function in the Edit Menu of the Menu stage.
This will allow you to set the font, the weight, the size, etc. and then apply them all items or to certain types of items (click the "Coverage" button to select what types of items to change).

Thnks, I'll try that.

hi there..
i got this problem lately with my new system.. the program can't utilize all core while encoding 2 passes x264..
the first pass use all the cores but the second pass use only 1 core :(
this problem happen from time to time.. sometime use all core and other only 1.
i tried 6.2.5.31 and now 6.2.5.32 same problem.
spec:

i9 7900x
asus rampage apex x299
32gb memory 4x8
nvidia 1050
960 pro nvme hdd
all driver are up-to date

hi, I think this is related your source file, what is it?
If for ex. it is an AVI file, probably the codec used does not use all cores to decode.
You may need to check in Options > Preferences > the Multithread settings, as well as check if the CPU cores are recognized in CPU/GPU settings.
cheers

I created BlueRay project but I want change the format to DVD without starting over from scratch.

Is this possible?

There are a few things you can do, but ultimately, you'll have to rebuild the project.

You can save your keyframes/chapters from your Bluray and use them for the DVD.
If you customized your menu items by applying styles, you can save those styles as a template to use in other projects.

If for some reason, you made your menu in SD and not HD, you can save it as a template and use it for the DVD. If you made an HD menu, you won't be able to use it for DVDs.

I have a licensed copy of TMPGEnc 4.0 XPress (EN) and wanted to try Mastering Works 6. I downloaded a trial version which worked fine until I tried using the Timeline mode. That action locked up my computer and I had to do a hardware shutdown which corrupted my OS(Window 7 -64 bit).

I was able to recover my OS, but, when I tried to uninstall the program the uninstaller ran for over 5 minutes without stopping. I just got a busy mouse icon. I'm concerned that whatever the program did to my system is still a problem. Any advise on how to get this program off my computer, without using "Windows Uninstall" would be greatly appreciated.

Also, would be interested if anyone else had this problem and if so, what did you do to fix it.

Thanks

Never, heard about such behavior,
I recommend you to check your hardware, you can try to uninstall using a freeware such as Revo uninstaller:

delete including the registry entries.
cheers,

Hello, is there an option to output in .iso? Also can I create a region free DVD? Thank you.

Yes, you can create an .iso from your output files. The software outputs the AUDIO_TS and VIDEO_TS folders, then you can use the Disc Writing Tool to create an iso from that.

I believe you can ONLY create region free DVDs as I can't find a way to set a region. I could be wrong though.

I downloaded the trial version of the V6 software. I was testing using three Mp4 files converted from Edius. Two were an hour long each (high school plays) and the other an 8 minute clip. Total time 1:50:00. So I made a basic custom menu with three menu boxes for the three clips. I was in the middle of simulating the environment when the program crashed. And that is my question...is this not a stable program? I really don't want to plunk down $100 to find out the system isn't stable. I was hoping that if this authoring worked I could buy the program and finalize but sadly, when it crashed it took all three hours of work setting up the chapters and menus with it. Really disappointing. Even before it crashed I couldn't find a save button so I was hoping it was automatically saving as I went along but alas, no such luck. Lost it all. So, what is the deal with this?

I've never had it crash on me personally, but obviously, that's not a guarantee since computers are different.

You can save the project by clicking on "Options" in the upper right corner and selecting to save the project. It does not automatically save, though that would be a nice feature to have.

Hi,
first of all: I am very happy with TMPGEnc 6. I like working with it and the usability of the software i think is awesome. Also Hurray! for the Batch-Rendering-Feature.

However since i first started using TMPGEnc i have the problem, that the UI is reacting very slowly on changes.

For example: When i insert a clip into the timeline i have to wait 5 seconds. When i want to set the current play-marker somewhere on the clip it takes another 5-8 seconds until the preview-window updates. Same when i try to split a clip: At least 10 seconds until something is happening.

The other major thing is playback in preview-window: While the sound is on time, the preview-window is never keeping up. It mostly stops displaying anything at all, only a freeze frame. When i hit the stop-button the preview-image updates after 5 seconds.

Does anyone have a suggestion how this can be eliminated?
My computer-specifications are: Intel Core i7-2600K - 3,40 GHz, 24 GB RAM, 64-Bit Windows 7, GeForce GTX 1070

I have already set the option "Pre-Rendering - Save Folder" to RAM so it's not caching on the harddisk, but no change.

Mostly i am rendering videos 1920x1080 - 60 FPS and 2440x1440 - 60 FPS.

I am open for any suggestion. It is so hard to work with the software, when you have to wait every few seconds for the ui-update.

Best regards,
Otto

Just to clarify: If no one has a solution i am also very happy to hear from your user-experience. Do you have the same problem when working with clips? Does your TMPGenc react immediately when changing properties or moving clips? Any help or review would be appreciated, so i may be able to narrow the problem down.

Best regards,
Otto

I only get that kind of slow down when I work with videos higher than 1080p, so maybe your system just can't handle it. I mostly work with 720p and 1080i footage and it works great with that.

I'm on Windows 10, Core i7, 16 GB RAM.

Just upgraded to AW6. In 5 I couldn't get the first chapter to be highlighted when moving forward or back to menu pages and I can't get it right in 6 either. In 6 I get it to highlight the first chapter when moving to 2nd page but when going back to first page it highlights the 'next' button or the last chapter on the page. I have tried virtually every combination of 'Global Settings' and 'Page Local Settings'. Does this function just not work or am I the idiot??

I've tried to do it too and have the same results as you. Maybe it's a bug or maybe they didn't describe the function correctly, because the way it's described, you should be able to highlight the first chapter/track in a page.

I have some FLV files with Speex audio, I have noticed that this program supports FLV files but it will not load the Speex audio portion of the files. Does anyone know of a way to do this or if speex audio decoding will be added in a future version?

Have you tried using the DirectShow filter for Speex? If not, you can download it here: https://xiph.org/dshow/

That might solve the problem.

My new notebook screen resolution is 1920x1080HD,but why installing shows"The software cannon start because this computer does not have the minimum required screen resolution 1280x768(at DPI 100%)"?

In your notebook's Display Settings, is the Scale and Layout set to 100%?

If it's a different percentage, you'll need to change it.

Hello!

I have a problem with transparency - i chosse a picture for my popup menu - the background color should be transparent, but where can i choose the color to be transparent? In Version 5 it worked.

Can anyone help me? Thanks!

How did it work in TAW5? I've never known about it.

You might need to use Photoshop or some other image software to make it an actual transparency/alpha channel.

Hello tkrave:

Yes, at Version 5 it was possible - with Version 6 i can´t find this option anymore. I think i must write directly to the support.
