What do you mean by Fullscreen do you mean that the movie is set up so there are black bars on top and bottom and you would like them gone? Or you you want a larger resolution? If you want to get rid of the Black bars go to the "Advanced settings" then double click "Clip frame" and here you can get rid of the black bars.....
i have 1.5 mins of vision & audio that i want to convert(to mpeg2)for playback on dvd players (as a svcd). the vision is a tga sequence and the audio is wav. i'm a newbie but have managed to get pretty good results using cbr and a high bitrate (have gone as high as 15000 but is that necessary?). however i can notice compression in certain areas of the vision during playback. i realise this will always be the case, but would really appreciate any advice from more advanced users on what settings i might use to get maximum image quality out of this program. below are some details of the project.
A bitrate of 15,000kbs will not play on a dvd player cuz the dvd standard is a max of 9800kbs so that is close to double the max allowable by dvd, and as a svcd you might not be able to play a resolution of 720 by 576 the max probably for a svcd(xsvcd) in Pal would be 704 by 576, for some reason svcd"s won"t play with horizontal resolution greater than 704...depending on your dvd player some can handle bitrates up to 5-8mbs and some can"t handle more than the standard 2520kbs, mine can handle up to 8000kbs for short periods of time but a dvd player has problems spinning the cd-r that fast, that is 3 times as fast as it is meant to spin for svcd...If you are just doing a short film you could try the 2-pass of use the CQ method cuz it is as good as the 2-pass or sometimes better, but for bitrate that would be determined by how much your dvd player can handle....if you go to "vcdhelp.com" they have a section on dvd players and should tell you what bitrates you dvd player can handle....good luck
sorry for my bad english, hope you understand what i mean:
i made a project with dvd2avi and the dvd is about more than 3hours20minutes...
so the wav file became 2.14gb
but tmpgenc won't open the file when i try to use sound edit with tmpgenc...
i thought tmpgenc can read wav files more than 2gb?
hope you can help me...
I load in bigger audio files into Tmpgenc all the time, like 3-5gb from captures, you might need to raise the priority of the "Wav file reader" in the "Vfapi plugins"...Go to "options" to "enviromental settings" to "vfapi plugins" then raise the "wav file reader" to "1"...this should work but if for some reason it doesn"t then encode the audio to a mp2 file with a audio encoder......
i've already set the priority to 1 and higher...doesen't work...
what's a good program to encode wav to mp2??
when i encode the wav (to mp2) with tmpgenc, i hear no sound...and tmpgenc loads and loads and loads...
I have similiar problem, but it originates differently.
Using DVD2AVI 1,76 or high( tried up to 1.86). I created a D2V project with the decoded audio in a wave file. The origin was the sequenced VOBs.
If my files are a wav below 2GB, then you can see the audio in Source Range Edit.Using source range saves the headache of whether you go audio since the audio is displayed with the video file.
I went into the tmpgenc.ini to look at the wave reader priority, changing it has no effect when you launch the program. I am using 2.56Plus.
Additionally the only way I can get audio sync with the video is use either 2PASS or CQ.
Not sure what the fix is. Is the problem DVD2AVI or TMPGenc
I found this sight (http://www.geocities.com/newestmoviesencode/dvdvcd) but when I try it I end up with an mpeg that is not supported by nero or roxio to make a vcd. It's supposed to put a vcd header on a svcd to "trick" your dvd player into thinking it's a vcd, has anyone ever done anything like this and if you have a better way please let me know. thanx.
That is the only Way to do it accept that the setting should be on "Video-CD Non-Standard" and of course Nero will give you an error the resolution is 480 by 480 and that is a SVCD Resolution, pluss the bitrate is way higher that vcd so that would give you a compliance error...What you have to do in Nero is make a "non compliant" vcd, so when it gives you the error just continue anyway..
Hi, I have source files that are created from a MiniDV camera, I've captured these via firewire into Videowave and they are in PAL 16:9 widescreen ratio.
When I try to use TMPGenc to convert the AVI files to Mpeg 2 the aspect ratio setting on the expert video setting is greyed out and displays 4:3 display, whay can I not select 16:9, does the program not support it, I want to keep these videos in widescreen.
I have miscalculated the file size of my one hour DV file, edited in Premiere 6.
My plan is to produce a 2 disc VCD format with a relatively high bit rate and quality. The result is a 1.580gig Mpeg file which i doubt will fit in 2 cds.
To solve my problem i plan to delete a portion of my mpeg file to make the file smaller,and then split the file to make two CD's.
My questions are:
1. If i delete a clip or portion of the file will that affect the quality of my video? considering that Mpeg is using the GOP structure, IBP etc... and editing an Mpeg file is a big no..no..
2. It took me a day and a half to encode this Mpeg file (would you beleive?) will it take the same time when i do the cut and merge?
3. Is there any chance this 1.580gig file fit in a two CD's.
4. I havent done cut and merge before ony read it, any expert tips on this in relation to my situation?
You should just barely be able to fit it onto 2 80-min cd-r"s, that woulds be 790mb per cd-r and you should be able to get 795-802mb on a 80min cd-r, your problem will be acurately cutting it so each part is exactly 790mb, cuz with Tmpgenc it cut"s useing a time scale instead of by the size it megabytes,If you use Tmpgenc to de-multiplex the file then used "BBmpeg" to multiplex it then with BBMpeg you can set it to cut the file exactly to 790mb while multiplexing so after multiplexing you will have 2 files cut exactly were you want, and it shouldn"t take more than 10-20minutes to do this depending on your system, and editing should not effect quality.....
I have a old mjpeg AVI file which is captured by using Marrox Rainbow Runner. When I try to convert it to mpeg1 by Tmpg, the video is unseeable. I am using Windows XP with Morgan M-Jpeg codec v3.0.0.9. (Rainbow Runner is not supported by Win XP)
You probably need to raise one of the file readers in the "Vfapi Plugins" probably either the "avi-VFW file reader" or the "OpenDML file reader" if you raise one then Lower the others..The vfapi pluging can be found by going to "options" to "enviromental settings" to "vfapi plugins"
Im new to TMPGnc, and tried to convert a Divx-file to a mpg-file. The result was good picture, no sound and a movie almost tree times longer than the original. Afther the movie ended, there was several hours with just black screen beeing added. The result was a file over 3GB large. I used the cut and merge-tool to cut off the blacknes, and the file was down to 1 GB.
But why does this happend, and why doesent I have any sound? The original Divx-file was OK with both sound and video.
The reason that there is no sound is because Divx files usually have an unsupported audio format, you need to extract the audio track to a wav file with "Virtual Dub" then use that as your audio source....and the 2 hours of black frames is probably just some glitch in reading the file, it happens sometimes.......
When im creating a mpeg-file (VCD) from a divx file, the sound starts about 10 sec. later than the picture.
How can i get pictura and sound synchronized.
Furher when im greating a VCD file from a divx file and the conversation starts in the middle of the divx file (70min in), i somtimes don't get any sound att all.
This is pretty wierd that the audio is so far out,are you useing "Media Player" to view your files??Media player in combination with certain codec can cause your mpeg files to play out of sync...but if it is out of sync that bad then you can try to sync it up with the "multiplexor" that comes with "mpeg2vcr" it allows you to adjust the audio and video gap while multiplexing.....
I´ve just reinstalled TMPGENC and was trying to do a VCD.
Now the problems started. Before there was no problem but now as soon as I try to open up a *.vdr file it says that the file is not supported.
What is wrong with this program.
Plz help and fast
sry..
forgot to tell that I have done that thing in VFAPI and tried to increase priority and all that but it still doesn´t work.
It seems to me that I have done all things that I can find on this forum but I still can´t solve the problem.
Have you installed the frameserver client first.
To check you have correctly installed the frameserver client create a vdr file then open another instance of Virtualdub and load the .vdr file. if it loads ok the client is installed, if not you haven't installed the client correctly.
Now here is one more problem.
Installed the handler for .vdr and virtualdub doens´t seem to want its own filetype....
TMPGENC still says that the file is unsupported.
Installed the subtitler filter and avihandler and also that regsomething something.
Plz help!!!!
If Virtualdub isn't opening the .vdr files then you haven't installed the frameserver client correctly.
Uninstall the frame server client and the reg entries by clicking the auxsetup.exe file. Double click the proxy off file (you shouldn't need this) as it could cause problems with other software.
Restart your system and re-install the frameserver client.Restart.
Create another .vdr and name it differently to any others you have created before. Try opening in virtualdub.
sorry, if i turn out to be blind, but most settings are impossible to change. i would like to reduce bitrate in audio or increase bitrate in video, as several sites recommend, but the dropdown menues are disabled. can someone please tell me what has to be selected/changed to enable them?
