Have changed video cd back to mpeg and merged two files, but when playing back audio is there at beginning and then drops out and comes back later. Can you help?

Sometimes when i encode avi's to svcd it streched them to full screen and it distorts the video, but then again some movies are encoded fine. What could be the problem.

It has to do with the aspect ratio of your avi file and the setting"s used in the "video arrange method" go to the "advanced settings" and play around with the settings in the "clip frame" option and the "video arrange method" ..just encode a few seconds at a time untill you find the one that looks best to you...

OK Here is my problem
I used a file splitting program called " Splitfile"two break a 1 hour and 30 minute movie in half.
Now I can get the first file to burn on my nero program.
But the 2nd file will not.
I get an error message that says basically that I am trying to burn an SVCD when in fact it is really an MPEG file.
Why is it converting it on me ?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

The spliting program you use didn"t put the vcd headers back on the mpeg file, so "nero" wants to re-encode the file to make it compliant..if you would have split the file useing "tmpgenc" you wouldn"t have had this problem, cuz the only way to fix it is to run your file through "tmpgenc" in the "merge & cut" in "mpeg tools"...in "tmpgenc" go to "File" to "mpeg tools" then to "merge & cut" then load your mpeg file in ,select the "mpeg1 VCD-standard" option on the top, then choose your out put file , then click "Run" and the program will make a copy of your mpeg file but it will attach the proper vcd headers to make the file compliant.........

I got a problem when ripping DVD. I use SmartRipper then DVD2AVI. After that I use TMPGEnc to convert it into NTSC-VCD format. However, for some songs in the CD, the program, TMPGEnc, suddenly closed by itself when the encoding get around 98-99%. Can anyone help?

Thanks

i get the same problem ri...uh...making backups of my dvds too. if your visual and audio is outta sync then u got the same problem i do. someone help us!!!

when trying to encode a avi file into vcd mpeg format I get an error "can't load p3package.dll" can anyone tell me what I did wrong?

You have to go into your "tmpgenc" folder and copy the "p3p package.dll" file into your "system and system32" folder.....

hi there..can i run two tmpgenc programs at the same time....cause it takes at least an hour to extract one part of the movie...so i was wondering if i run both...will it take even longer....help me out...

You can try it, but i think it would run way slower than useing one.....

I Have been trying to make an SVCD From a DivX File that I have. The DivX File is NTSC, 16:9 aspect ratio at 23.97 fps. When I encode the SVCD File to 4:3 aspect ratio it plays fine on my computer. However, when I play the SVCD on my TV the video goes off the edges of the screen slighty. Is there a way that I can make the video so it doesn't go off the edges of the TV screen?

That is because your original file probably had a resolution of "720 by 480" or something like that, and the svcd resolution is "480 by 480" so a total of 240 pixels are being chopped,so you will allways loose a little at the edges,but you could do an experiment that i just did to find out if my dvd player would play full resolution svcd"s, so I encoded a mpeg2/svcd movie at 720 by 480 resolution and burnt it to a disk as a svcd . and my dvd player played it better than it played svcd"s or vcd"s because I would allways get a shakeing on the screen and I didn"t have that with the full res svcd, so now all my svcd"s are like that.....

I think it must be my DVD player because I tried that and it still cut a small part of the edges off. It seems to play VCDs and SVCDs slighty bigger than the TV screen. My DVD player is a Philips DVD711.

It doesn't make a difference what the output aspect ratio is and you aren't losing 240 pixels of information, the original movie is just squeezed into this frame size. If what you were saying was true then creating a standard VCD would mean you would be losing 368 pixels of information when converting from 720x480 which just doesn't happen.

Your problem is not TMPGenc or your DVD player it is your TV. It needs the overscan adjusting slightly so you can see more of the frame.
Call out a technician and get it adjusted.

If what you are saying is true I would have this problem with everything on my TV. However this is not the case. It only happens with VCDs and SVCDs! Not DVDs, VHS or even normal television. In fact, I had the same VCD/SVCD problem on my old TV as well.

i'm not sure if mpegs can be split.
i have a 1.2 gig mpeg that i need to sl=plit.
thanks

"File" to "mpeg tools" to "merge & cut"!!!

When I try to convert an .avi (DIVX) file into VCD, there is sound but no video. I used virtualdub to convert the sound in the original .avi. The file i'm trying to convert to VCD plays fine in WMP. Why no video on the conversion?

I successfully made a rounders vcd, but unfortunately it ended up full screen for some reason, so the video was stretched, how do i make it so it is a widescreen version, like the way its supposed to be?

You cannot. You must reencode or see it on a 16:9 TV like the anamorphic DVDs.
