Have patience with me. I think my I.Q. went down to 49. I did everything that I was supposed to for encoding an AVI to an MPG and burned it with Nero. Everything worked great until I put the CD-R in my DVD player. I said "No Disc"

One submission to this BBS from Techno said that cheaper cd-r's wouldn't work. My DVD player plays all formats of CD, CD-R/RW, MP3, VCD, SVCD, etc.

Is there something else I should be looking for. I know this is not much info, but if you ask me specific questions, I can give you the answer.

TYVM,

This is seriously weird!

Sorry if I am replying again.

OK, sorry for the dumb question but what VCD template did you use?

How did you encode it?

How did you burn it?

Techno

Maybe, just Maybe, there maybe a problem with the laser in the dvd player, may have busted for CD-R/VCD but if it plays other VCD's then there is something seriously wrong!

Techno

Hmm.

Try and follow some of the guides out there.

One thing though, In nere make sure you burn with MAX 4X speed and "Track-at-once" to get maximum compability with standalone players.

try different brands of blank CDs, or rewritable CDs. I solve the problem by changing CDs.

i had the same problem. i had to start the movie, then immediatly pause it. then you cut the movie in two. if you don't start it playing first it won't work. the instructions i had first didn't include that step.

I tried to use TMPGENC - 2.53.35.130 to convert certain asf files into mpeg-1 format. TMPGENC stops responding and hang after completing 25% of conversion. I tried to run TMPGENC in boh Window XP and Window 98 and same thing happens. Can anyone help?

I do not think ASF is supported in TMPGENC, bu I may be wrong.

I tried it once my self, but hung.

Techno

ASF is supported via the DirectShow interface but there seems to be a memory leak in TMPGEnc that prevents it from converting too long files (short ones work ok, depends on the memory you have)

I have 768M RAM in memory. I have tried to convert different asf files with sizes range from 7M to 20M. The program would hung regard of the size of the source file.

Hi,

Im trying to get the Wizard to work on version 2.53 but all i get whem i start the wizard up is a blank box, with it asking me to select a format

how can i select a format from a list that dosnt exist ????

PLEASE HELP

Druss

I too am having this same problem.

After following some earlier advice to read
<http://www.vcdhelp.com/convert.htm>

I followed the instructions exactly, but still haven't been able to get more than a blank screen in the Wizard. Am using version 2.53, unregistered.

ok, figured out the Wizard problem...

It seems that the files have to be in their respective folders for TMPGEnc to open them in the Wizard.

Follow this link : http://forum.vcdhelp.com/viewtopic.php?t=84759

and note the locations of the files and the folders they are located in, and then make the proper changes. I don't know if version 2.5 fixes this, but the copy I downloaded was in .zip format, and had no folder extensions.

hope this helps!

Some unzip software ignores file/folder structure of ZIP file,
so, in your case, when your software unzipped the file, it broke
file/folder structure, then TMPGEnc cound not refer to the necessary files.

This is not bug of TMPGEnc obviously.

Hi, I have been using TMPGEnc for a bit now and for the first time I have encountered an AVI clip that when I go to convert, will not show any video. The screen is completely black and when I go to preview, I still get no video. But the AVI clip will play under Windows Media Player so I know that there is video.

In a similar post, someone mentioned uninstalling Divx5 and installing Divx 4.11 or 4.12. I did just that (4.12) and still got the same problem. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

I've had this before - what happened with me is that the avi I was attempting to convert had been encoded in an old codec (mp43) - download and install angelpotion codecs or other suitable mp43 codecs (take your pick) - this worked for me. This may be what's wrong with yours.

hmmm....

try to uninstall the angel potion codec as it is known to cause problems

Also, increase the directshow, avi vfw and the avi opendml filters to a higher priority in the environment settings.

Techno

How do you uninstall that particular codec?

you goto control panel and add/remove programs or use the uninstaller with the codec (sometimes in it's own program group on the start menu)

Techno

TMPG will no longer load on my computer, I keep getting this message now "Runtime error 216 at 00002F3C". Can Anyone tell me how to fix this problem? I tried reinstalled it but had the same problem come up.

Try downloading it again or download a newer version.

Techno

my media file is already in mpeg format and has extension .mpg
how can i use this program to burn it onto a cdr with my cdr drvie?

well, depends:

is it a VCD?

if so u can use nero to burn it or adaptec but nero is recommended

if it is not a VCD but want to burn it, just burn it as data CD

Techno

Has anyone found a way to limit the max/min bitrate per frame (not just per second) in CBR mode? Or to control it in some way.
Thanks,
Ric

not in CBR, but in Auto_CQ or CQ

if u use the auto_CQ or the CQ, make sure u have the enable padding box enabled.

Techno

no wait, didn't understand that question properly, I do not think there is a way

Hi,
I use TMPG Enc 2.53.

I tried to convert 960*540 bmp to mpeg2 format file.
But I got a error message
"The resolution of the video is illegal.
> The windows size needs to be set between 8*8 and 4088*4088.
> The width and height of window needs to be multiple of 8."

Is it impossible to convert 960*540 bmp to mpeg2 format file using TMPG Enc?

if so, is there any way to do this?

Please understand I'm not good at English. ^^

you must resize the video:

480*480 / 640*480 etc...
