Ok, my problem is that the audio is not in sync with the video. Well in the beginning its fine but as the movie progresses (about halfway) the video gets more and more behind the aduio. (Hear Words Before Lips Move) does anyone know a program or how i can fix this?
Try changing the Audio into a WAV file before using VirtualDub or something and then select it as the audio source when encoding with Tmpgenc. A nice easy tutorial which explains the process step by step can be found on VCDhelp.com
When I encode using the VCD settings, I usually get a couple of very short glitches in the final MPEG1 file (blocky, pixelated frames, with an audible chirp). VirtualDub can't find any bad frames in either the MPEG1 file or the original raw AVI.
I noticed something interesting while playing the MPEG1 file in the stripped down Windows Media Player (mplayer2.exe) with the Statistics displayed. Right before the glitch occurs, the actual frame rate starts to increase from the normal 29.97 fps to about 30.10 fps.
What is going on here???
I'm using a Dell 1.8 GHz PC with 640MB of RAM and Windows XP.
For the future, can TMPGEnc have a filter that lets us put a BMP logo on each frame of the new MPG? So we can have our own "brands" on MPG's that we create?
I can't seem to convert theese types of movies, IT seems to ecode the video, then encode the audio after. my original file size is about 700MB but the final video is 2-3 times as big, and thier is no sound. Any help? Ive tried downloading all codecs i can find. THnx
extract the audio and encode it to "wav" then load that in as your audio file in tmpgenc,if you allread have a mpeg of the video without sound just extract the audio from the avi and encode it to mp2 and multiplex it with your mpeg file...
Set up your files, save as projects then use batch encode under File>batch encode and add each project then run.
Now go to bed and wake up in the morning with your movies ready encoded.
I read somewhere that when film(24 fps)material is converted
to PAL,it is just speeded up by 4%.Also the sound is speeded
up by 4%.It is easy to speed up the video by changing the framerate
to 25,but the audio will get out of sync.How to speed up the audio?
Cooledit pro or cooledit 2000.
Find out the length of the avi exactly in seconds in virtual dub after you have converted the framerate then save the original audio as a wav and load into cooledit and use the time stretch feature in cool edit and make sure you tick preserve pitch.

i tryed it but nothing has changed
"it can't open or supported" ???
i've TMPGEnc 2.53.35.130 (core version 1.84.130)
and virtual dub 1.4.10
my server is ok
i can't understand what's happen !!!!
Hi I have tried to create VCDs from a couple of avi movies with only jumpy results. Wen I say jumpy I mean when played back on a DVD player or my Napa the picture skips a few frames and continues.
I took the avi decompressed the audio with aiv2vcd tool and then used standard TMPGenc VCD template on highest quality. Burned with Nero. Tried both PAL and NTSC both the same. All VCDs play OK on my PC (PIII 1GHz - 256DDR).
Any suggestion would be appreciated.
You're probably burning at too high a speed.
A lot of DVD players, mine included, have problems with disks burned above 4x and will give jerky results. Even at 6x my player jerks like hell, but plays almost flawlessly at 4x.
So lower your speed and see what happens.
Thanks for the advice wich I just tried at 2X from my HP 8200 which has a max of 4X. The results were slightly better but still jumpy. I think a new burner may be in order. I am just going to try at 1X speed painfull but I am good at twiddling my thumbs.
I have tried encoding the video to both 25Pal and 29.???NTSC.
I anticipate the next reply to be try 23.976Film you dope.
I will try this and let you know.
What about my burner? Do you think it is past its day or should it be OK?
I think I know your problem.
I assume you are using the PAL system in your country.
The PAL system requires that the format is 25 fps at 625 lines a second.
What you need to understand is that it won't make any difference if you encode at the same framerate as the original as what will happen is your player will automatically convert the 23.976 internally to 25fps to make it compatible with the PAL system which as you have noticed will give the same result as you got using TMPG to convert it to 25fps.
Encoding 23.976 to 25fps MPEG will definitely give the jerky result even in media player, so look closely and you will see the jerks even if only slight.
As a test convert a test piece of the avi to 25fps using virtualdub.
This will however desync the audio but this doesn't matter as it's only a test.
Put the converted test file in TMPG and proceed to create a standard PAL VCD at 25fps using the template.
Make sure it plays smooth in mediaplayer even though the audio will be off.
If it does burn it with NERO using the VCD option.
Just a note for all those having parasites, freezes or misc errors using TMPGEnc : first check your RAM. I had a lot of problems and didn't know what was the cause of them. Then I check my memory using free MemTest software (look for it with Google). It appeared that I had a corrupted memory chip. I changed one then all my problems were resolved !
I use 3dquest to make movies...and I render them to 7000 bmp movies, I want to turn them into a mpg movie. I see the bitmap option when I go to load videofile but how can I load all pics?! or isnt that an option?!
Virtual dub can do it and quiet fast too...but only too avi files :(
there is only one thing I think you can do, probably the best is what you said load them in to virtua dub and make an avi. then load that in "tmpgenc". you can load them individualy in tmpgenc encode them and join them later but that would take forever.....
there are a few things that can cause this,you don"t have the "dvd2avi vfapi plugin", you have changed the name of or the position of a file that is in the path between your d2v file and "tmpgenc" or you have deleted or moved 0ne or more vob files from there source folder,if none of these apply to you just make a new d2v file and dont change any names or possitions of your vob files or any other files in the path between your movie file"s and tmpgenc....
I follow your guys instructions, but I couldn't load a .d2va.
I read from vcdhelp.com that said VFAPI file was needed to be included in the same folder asTGMPGEnc.exe
Eventhough, I installed " dvd2avi vfapi plugin" into the same folder as TGMPGEnc.exe and copied DVD2AVI.vfp to paste into this folder too, the VFAPI file doesn't show up.
Important: Make sure once you have created your .d2v file that you don't delete or move either the d2v file or the vobs.
Make sure this file 'DVD2AVI.vfp' is in your TMPGenc folder where the TMPGEnc.exe is located and not in the plugin folder.
Goto Option>enviromental setting and click the 'VFAPI Plug-in' tab and make sure you have the 'DVD2AVI project file reader' ticked and set all priorities to 0 by right clicking on the plugins and choosing 'Lower priority' from the menu.
If this doesn't get you going then I'm all outta ideas.
Thank you very much Ashy, I did all of your suggestion before, but I didn't work. I don't know why after I left my computer for about 9 hours, and I just checked it again. This time is work.
