I am trying to compress about an hour of raw AVI generated by my TV Cature card. It starts processing happily, but after about 10 minutes it just repeats encoding the same frame to the end of the file. It appears to continue 'reading' the input file but does not 'receieve' any new frames and just encodes the same frame again and again until it gets to the end of the input. The input file plays thru to the end without a problem using the media player.

Yep. Same thing happens to me, sometimes. I posted about it a few days ago. My big problem now is that I am running a 32 hour render and it dies 3 hours from finishing.

TMPG will only accept files up to a 4GB limit. If you need to compress a file bigger than this then I suggest you use Virtualdub to frameserve the file to Tmpgenc.
Note: It's not a good idea creating uncompressed AVI fue to the file size limits. Use a lossless codec instead such as huffyuv codec.

OK, I see. So next question: how do i do a 2 Pass VBR encoding of a frameserved source file?. Does the frameserver have the smarts to rewind and serve from the start after the first pass?

I have downloaded that latest version of the software and i was trying to convert some .asf to mpg 1. When I press start in goes to one second then it just stops responding. There is no error message so i don't know what i happneing

I was able to do .wmv files previous to this but no asf ones
i tried to do a log of the encode but don't know what i;m looking for in there

what is the reason this is happening????????

ASF files are not supported by TMPGENC

ok I saw the answer somewhere here before But I have movie files that hang up after encoding...I saw someone post a link to a file that fixes these hanging up vids but I cannot find it..any help is Greatly Appreicated..

I am having problems with coverting files to a VCD...The pixels are large and blocked it makes the picture flicker as the pixels move. Does this make any sense to anyone or am a complete newbie?

Yeh, it does. Email me so I can tell u what to do. I do not want people insulting my solution THAT DO WORK!

Techno

Techno your solution will not be insulted if you just respect the advice others give.
Like I said everyone has there own solution and not any one solution is the final end. It is up to the receiver of these solutions to decide which is best for him not you.

I know that for crying out loud.

In trying to convert a 114 minute video to two VCDs, I must convert half of the video twice. The first half works fine; I set the source range from frame 0 to 107374.

For the second half, I set the source range from frame 107304 to the end. However, when I start the encoding, TMPGenc starts at frame 0 again!

I am using TMPGenc version 2.53.35.130, downloaded yesterday. This problem happens if I don't use the Wizard. If I DO use the Wizard, everything works OK.

I can't open Xvid file with tmpeg......(.avi)

why ?????????

with windows mediaplayer

?????,

sorry for my english, i'm french

Xvid files usually use ogg-vorbis audio,so you'll need the directshow codec.Also,you'll need the divx5 and/or xvid codecs.

When I select 'FILE'
'Preview'
The box opens and my video is cut off somewhat. The Moive I am Backing up is Atlantis. The title screen opens, but when the words come on the screen I can only see the right side of the preface to the movie.

What am I doing wrong? It seems like the movie should be almost twice as wide.

I just downloaded the latest version and I can cut and MPEG past 840 seconds, what do i do?

I am converting an avi(divx) to .mpg and during the conversion, the program just closes on me. I tried again, and it stopped again at the same part. I'm not sure if there was an error message or anything when it stops because i was afk at those times. If anyone knows why its doing this, plz let me know, thx. (eg.)Is this a trial version or something?

I have been struggling over the past couple of weeks with the "no sound" problem when converting from .avi to .mpg. It is possible that for some reason my problems began after upgrading to TMPGEnc 2.53.35.130.

I was able to solve the problem by going to Option/Environmental Setting... and clicking on the VFAPI plug-in tab. I suspected that multiple plug-ins for .avi support was the culprit. In my case, I had the AVI2(OpenDML) File Reader (checked, priority=0) and AVI VFW compatibility reader (checked, priority=-2). All I had to do was uncheck the AVI2(OpenDML) File Reader and the conversion went fine with audio.

I'm sure that there may be cases where I need to check the AVI2(OpenDML) File Reader, but for most of my current encoding purposes, this change seems to correct my problems.

THX MATE,
that was my problemm for 2 weeks.

THX very much
