Question - TE25 - An Svcd Mpg Made in Tmpgenc... try to load in tmpgenc again and unsupported No.28010
houseman  Home )  2002-09-14 07:08:37 ( ID:yagkro17hy2 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

heh. .just seems odd. . that i can make a vcd mpg using smartripper/dvd2avi/tmpgenc .. and then i can go back and merge/cut/edit in tmpgenc no problem..
but if i decide to make it an svcd mpg and want to go into it later and add an intro or merge the mpgs .. etc.. it wont even load up in tmpgenc..this makes 0 sense to me. . this file was created by tmpgenc .. . it was born of tmpgenc. .why is it now unsupported by tmpgenc.... is there a fix to this..
'worried ripper.

Because Tmpgenc can Encode to Mpeg2 doesn"t mean it will load Mpeg2 files to be encoded to a Different format....To Load Mpeg2 files into tmpgenc you have to have either the "Cyberlink" mpeg2 decoder installed on your system or the "Ligos" mpeg2 decoder installed.Or you can use the "Mpeg2-VFP" Plugin, but either way it needs a mpeg2 decoder to so it can decode the mpeg2 file..if you have "Power DVD" you will have the mpeg2 decoder...



Question - TE25 - TMPGEnc read error No.28009
reester  2002-09-14 03:06:53 ( ID:xh3lqvfqeyr )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Hope someone can help me. I am using TMPGEnc Version 2.57.41.146 (registered)to encode a 12.3GB DV Avi file. I encoded it with VCD and SVCD templates just fine but using the DVD template (tried several birates and rate control modes)I get the following "Read error occured at address 00481807 of module 'TMPGEnc.exe' with 05C9AC20". Not sure if the address locations are the same every time, but I don't think so. It errors out like this after different percentages of completion even with the same settings. Never gotten past 62% tho. I'm running W2K on an Athlon XP with 512k ram. Tried V2.58 with same results. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hey I just want to know one thing...when are ya'll gonna make it possible to upgrade to a newer version without haveing to purchase it...there are so many versions and that could end up costing too much and make your product not worth it...i would like to upgrade to 5.8 but I don't have the cash to keep dumping like that...anyways...thanks for your time...


Minion  2002-09-14 03:21:49 ( ID:w8yn5mktf8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

You Can,If you purchased any of the 2.5 plus versions you can upgrade for free to the 2.58 version..If you are haveing a problem with upgradeing contact support at the Pegassus site.....

At :
http://www.pegasys-inc.com/e_main3.html

It says
"Those who have purchased previous version of TMPGEnc Plus are free to upgrade to this version, 2.58! Just download this version and run the program please."

Why did you think "can't upgrade without paying...."?



Question - TE25 - Bad audio with large files and new version slower No.28000
Michelle  2002-09-14 01:05:55 ( ID:kigm2esmvsr )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Now that I have XP Pro, I decided to make 1 large (about 7.5GB) file of my caps rather than hassling with frameserving. I make two encodes: VCD and WMV. The WMVs from the large file turn out fine. The VCDs appear to encode fine (no errors), but when I play them, the audio is messed up. The audio starts out fine, but when I move the slider, I lose the audio, or I get the wrong audio. Not just out of synch, but like it took audio from one part of the show and put it in another.

I have been using version 2.52 and thought maybe upgrading would help. The problem is that if I use the same settings, 2.58 takes much longer. 4:10 instead of 2:50 for the one I tried. I haven't had a chance yet to let it run all the way through to see if it fixes my orginal problem, but even if I have to go back to frameserving, I'd like to use the latest version.

So my questions are:
1. Is there a problem with TMPGEnc 2.52 (or higher) with messed audio on large files?
2. Why is 2.58 so much slower than 2.52 and is there any way that can be fixed?

Thanks,

Michelle

This seems like a problem with your configuration cuz no one has complained about the newer versions being slower, and what do you use to watch your mpeg files with ??If you are useing Media Player then don"t cuz it has problems sometimes playing mpeg files..You should use something like "Power DVD"..For me and probably most poeple the newer versions are faster at encodeing than Older versions..What OS did you upgrade from??Was it Windows ME or 98???Cuz there can be some big problems when upgradeing from Win Me or 98 to XP and XP Pro..When i upgraded from Win Me to XP Pro, I had so many problems that I had to totally erase my Hard drive and to a Full Install if XP Pro instead of an Upgrade, now it works fine...

>This seems like a problem with your configuration cuz no one has complained about the newer versions being slower,

The computer configuration, or TMPGEnc? If the latter, I'm using the same configuration in both versions.

>and what do you use to watch your mpeg files with ??If you are useing Media Player then don"t cuz it has problems sometimes playing mpeg files..You should use something like "Power DVD"..

I use WMP, but that isn't the problem. The VCDs that were frameserved play just fine. Why would I use Power DVD for VCDs?

>For me and probably most poeple the newer versions are faster at encodeing than Older versions..

Well, for me, it'd definitely slower. Same AVI file, same config, almost 1.5 hours slower.

>What OS did you upgrade from??Was it Windows ME or 98???Cuz there can be some big problems when upgradeing from Win Me or 98 to XP and XP Pro..When i upgraded from Win Me to XP Pro, I had so many problems that I had to totally erase my Hard drive and to a Full Install if XP Pro instead of an Upgrade, now it works fine...

I didn't upgrade from anything. I just bought this computer and it came with XP Pro.

Thanks,

Michelle

You watch your VCD"s with power DVD Cuz VCD"s are in Mpeg format which is what DVD"s are..Windows media player Has a habbit of playing Mpeg files out of sync, so badly that the audio can be out of sync by 20 minutes...if you have the "Motion Precition" on Highest quality that will make the encodeing take twice as long..how can you have the same configuration on 2 different computers with differant Opperateing systems?...

DVDs are MPG2. VCDs are MPG1. There is no reason to use a DVD player for VCD. They play just fine in WMP. Again, the player is _not_ the problem. The frameserved files play just fine.

>if you have the "Motion Precition" on Highest quality that will make the encodeing take twice as long..

I have it set to higher in both cases. I have been using TMPGenc for over 2 years. I'm not a newbie. Both versions are set up identically, but the large file AVIs take longer on the new version than the old version. I ran a test last night, and frameserved ones are unaffected.

>how can you have the same configuration on 2 different computers with differant Opperateing systems?...

Since I am only using one computer and one OS, I have no idea what the point of this question is.

At any rate, from my own testing, I have confirmed that using >2GB files is indeed the problem. Since no one else is answering and you don't appear to actually be reading my responses, I will just go back to frameserving.

Thanks,

Michelle

BTW: The moderator might want to check why my second post showed up again almost an hour later. I did not post it twice.

Question - TE25 - File Unsupported - Sorry...same old thing No.27997
Kahuna  2002-09-13 20:13:45 ( ID:k3lamlaailn )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I hate to chime in with the same problem, but I haven't been able to solve this one and scanned through all the threads so far.

I'm trying to frameserve from Premier to TMPGEnc. I was able to do this many times last month without a problem. However, now I'm getting the dreaded "cannot open or file unsupported" message.

I've set my DirectShow MFR to 2.
I've uninstalled Win Media Player 7 and then reinstalled it w/all options.

Unfortunately I can't pinpoint what has changed between when this worked and when it stopped. I think I might have installed the Tsunami Filter pack in between. Other than that I can't be specific.

Is there anything else I can try. TMPGEnc was working great before.

Please help.
Thanks
Kahuna


Minion  2002-09-13 21:47:51 ( ID:w8yn5mktf8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Maybe try Disableing the Direct show filter, this has been known to help ocationally with frameserveing....


Kahuna  2002-09-13 21:53:15 ( ID:k3lamlaailn )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

solved my problem by reinstalling the VideoFrameServer (determined the codec was missing)

thanks anyhow

Got any ideas what this is all about???
Thanks

It Seems that for some reason there is an error in Decodeing your divX file, there is probably an error in you File that is causeing it...you can try to start encodeing a few frames after you get the error then join the 2 mpeg"s together in the "Merge & Cut"...



Question - TE25 - Divx AVI to SVCD No.27990
Hannes  2002-09-13 11:04:09 ( ID:dcp3cik6wac )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Hi, I just wanted to make a SVCD from a divx avi-file, but when I want to specify this avi-file as audio-source, I get an error that this file can not be opened, or nut supported. The video source functions the way it has to (can be encoded, but without audio)
What am I doing wrong?


3RAb  2002-09-13 19:09:54 ( ID:my2xkjwzvdj )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

u may need to extract the audio first from the DivX file.

download VirtualDub from www.virtualdub.com , extract & install as usual. open DivX file with VirtualDub,
1. choose from menu Audio, select Full processing mode;
2. choose Audio from menu again, select Compression, highlight "No compression (PCM)"; then OK
3. choose Audio from menu once more time, select Conversion, change Sampling rate to 44100Hz for VCD or SVCD MPEGs, leave others alone, click OK
4. from menu, choose File, Save WAV, type a name for this WAV file.

5. in TMPGEnc, use this WAV as Audio Source.

good luck

You Probably need to raise the priority of the "Direct Show File Reader" in the "Vfapi Plugins".. go to "Options" to "enviromental settings" to "Vfapi Plugins" and raise the "Direct show" to "2" this usually get avi file loaded when you get that error..

Will you support Apple MOV formated?


ffast  2002-09-13 07:45:59 ( ID:bziuu02jpsm )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

It is unofficially supported with "Quick time plug-in".
You can search the plug-in at google.com or somewhere.


ABS  2002-09-13 10:32:09 ( ID:tmdsptwfkem )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

The plugin sometimes doesn't work though, so if you can't import mov files after using it, try installing Quicktime 5 or later, that worked for me.



Question - TE25 - Figured out Floating Point Error with 2-pass MPEG2 No.27986
Edward Chan  2002-09-13 07:42:23 ( ID:anwajj2k46c )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Hey all. Thought I might share something I figured out tonight. After upgrading to 2.57 and 2.58, I started getting frequent floating point calculation errors when converting AVIs to 2-pass MPEG2 on frame 15 of the second pass. Well, I figured out that if you change the 2-pass type to "2 pass (old type)" it runs fine invariably. Perhaps Hiroyuki-san can look into this problem for a bug fix. Thanks. BTW, this was system-independent, and was reproduceable on a Pentium 4, Athlon XP, and VIA C3 processor, with floating point enabled and disabled.

Help needed encoding to svcd with TMPGenc. I have a dvd player which is a Wharfedale 750s, i have played Svcds from other people, and the quality was fine, with no problems in video or audio. I try some encoding of D2v file with Tmpgenc, and i have big problems. i set the video bitrate to 2376(vbr), and the audio which is always 224Kbps, this gives me a total of 2,600 Kbps, which i believe to be the compliant for Svcd, allthough i have seen some people encoding much higher than this. On playback in my player, i experience video and audio interupts, like a bad framerate, with audio cutting out, this can happen in the same places, and on playback, it can happen in different places also. i have set the whole thing up as best as i can in TMPGenc, but still have this problem. The only way i have been able to get round this problem in a not so very good way is reduce the video bitrate to around 1200, this seems to cut out the probs on my Wharfedale, but now the picture is very poor. another thing worth mentioning is that i have encoded files transfered from panasonic dv camera, extracted the audio with Virtualdub in the same way to wav, and encoded with TMPGenc with no probs in playback, im sure that my player can handle a video bitrate of 2300 or more, and i dont think that its a case of the player not being able to handle this bitrate, but im thinking its something else that is causing the problem, anyone have any idea here, because i have tried everything, also when i check out other encoded mpg2 files that i have from other source, i used the bitrate viewer, the files seem much higher on my encoded files on the graph, than other files, ie the spikes. any help will be appreciated.

Many thanks

I just read a whole bunch of reviews on the WarfDale 750 and 750s and most poeple have big problems trying to get the 750s to play SVCD"s..Most poeple can"t get any SVCD"s burned with Nero to Play but some poeple say that if your burn it with VCDEasy they will play, From what I have read it isn"t a very good player when it comes to VCD/SVCD"s..It all seems to be in the bitrate and in the burning program and even the burning speed and type of CD-R"s you use...If I were you I would get a Different Player...The One I have costs only $99 Canadian and it plays everything ,it"s a Electrohome....


Hercules Man  2002-09-13 18:50:35 ( ID:b3wtvzva/ra )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Sounds like you could have a point minion, but, i have a whole box of svcds, apprx 40 or so, and EVERYONE works flawelessly! without any skipping, and the picture quality is superb. i also have tried around 160 vcd mpg1 on this machine, and again, they ALL work. now its something to do with TMPGenc, and i have tried all versions, with a hell of a lot of different settings, im gonna work on CCE next to do the encoding, im sure there is an answer here, its not the player. this player is amazing with audio and picture, and i have read many many rave reviews on this model, 750s, second gen machine. someone somewhere knows the answer, and i dont think im going to get it out of the guys who make TMPGenc, that for sure...

Thanks all

I wounder if it could have something to do with the mpeg2 codec i have installed, as i believe that TMPGenc relies on a codec installed on the pc as it dosent use one of its own. I have got Power dvd 3 installed, i have also tried encoding on the same pc in 2 different operating systems, win98, and winXP pro, both with same results. one other thing i noticed is the mpeg2 file from other source which i checked with BV, has zig zig scan, and not progressive, so i guess that maybe all the other svcd i have tried, have been encoded on other software and not TMPGenc.

I guess you can try a different encoder to make your svcd"s...I guess that is the only way to find out if it is your DVD Player or if it is the Encoder..CCE is a good and fast encoder but it is more complicated in some ways than Tmpgenc...

>i set the video bitrate to 2376(vbr), and the audio which is always 224Kbps, this gives me a total of 2,600 Kbps, which i believe to be the compliant for Svcd

If you are using VBR then you are not making a SVCD compliant file. Do you mean (CBR)?
If you do mean CBR then your problem may not be the bitrate as you say your player is able to play other SVCD's.
It may be the muxing rate your player is having problems with as this can cause the sort of problems you are having, but you would have to have a fairly picky player. TMPG uses the standard muxing rate, but sometimes this isn't correct for all files.

BBMPEG has a better muxer than TMPG and can set the correct muxing rate of the MPEG for you. All you have to do is simply set the muxing rate at 0 and BBMPEG will scan the file and set the rate correctly.
Another reason could be the VBV buffer setting. Try setting it at 0 in TMPG to let it decide the best rate.

The other thing I would ask is, have you used the MPEGtools to split the file? If you have you may be using the wrong stream setting when splitting.
