hi, i'm trying to make a movie widescreen but i'm having a lot of problem. I go into "clip frame" and try to put the movie at "center (keep aspect ratio)" but i see that both the left and right side are not filled up (square box looking). I also tried "full screen (keep aspect ratio)" and also see that both left and right sides are still not filled up. As a matter of fact only "center" and "no margin (keep aspect ratio) controls allow for both left and sides to be filled up and look more like widescreen. However, i would prefer to do the movie in "center (keep aspect ratio). When i tried to crop it the top and bottom get smaller but the left and right sides stay the same. Is there a way to make the left and right sides fill the screen (at 480 pixels) when using "center (keep aspect ratio). Thanks in advance
hi,it's 480x352...i tried "center (keep aspect ratio)" on my tv screen and see that both left and right sides are not filled all the way. However, "center" works nice but the "keep aspect ratio" is missing. Is it ok to use "center" and keep the "aspect ratio" out. Would my movie look weird?
You can try center and Custom size and fool around with the settings till it looks right...It is really hard to turn that resolution into a Widescreen movie Because the Picture is Taller than it is Wide were Widescreen is Wider than it is Tall..And you can try useing the "16:9" aspect ratio but you just don"t have the correct resolution to Really good Wide screen appearance..
I get an error right before the encoding of any file that i am converting when i am using 2 pass vbr, and have to stop encoding a few seconds before the encoding is complete so i can have a file. Otherwise it does not work. What is wrong help me
tmpgenc can't do subtitles as far as i know...u need to use virtual dub and select the subtitles plug in....now to get a good movie u don't want to be encoding again cuz u loose quality each time. So what u want to do is load your asf into virtual dub. Prob is virtual dub stopped supporting asf files when microsoft told them to so u have to use a earlier ver ie virtualdub 1.3c. I don't know how well the subtitler plugin works in that ver but i guess it should work fine. get virtualdub 1.3c here http://www.vcdhelp.com/tools.htm#edit and get the subtitler plugin here http://www.virtualdub.org/virtualdub_filters. U also need a program to make the subtitles....called sub station alpha http://www.eswat.demon.co.uk/substation.html
ok...now virtual dub makes avis not mpgs so u have to frameserve it to tmpgenc....ie virtualdub kinda lets tmpgenc do the encoding after the subtitles are added....file/start frame server and load the saved file into tmpgenc...
its a lot of work huh to put subtitles into mpg from asf....i have to go now maybe someone else can give u more details on frameserving...good luck!
Are u sure u have installed the frameserver correctly?
For a quick check, create another .vdr file then open another instance of Virtualdub and try and load the .vdr file into it.
If it loads ok then the client is installed ok and the problem therfore lies with TMPG, if it doesn't then the client isn't installed correctly.
Oh and if the file does load into Virtualdub then try disabling the Directshow file reader in the VFAPI plugins in TMPG then try and load the file again.
I have the following :-
Amd 1.4 with a GF2 32mb agp card 512mb ram running win 98se
when i use TmpGenc 2.58 i get Not responding message its totaly random and does not happen every time, has any one else had this?, is there a fix?
Hello I allow myself to address to me to you because I have some problems with the software free TMPGenc.
indeed, in spite of the use of various versions of TMPgenc, I do not manage to convert a divx into MPEG.
. After a certain percentage, I obtain an error message according to: "Write error occurred At adress 00402å9 of module tmpegenc.exe with 008c3bd0" That can I make.
Merci TRIPS JEAN PIERRE BELGIUM Thank you TRIPS JEAN PIERRE BELGIUM
I did. I chose "Center Screen (Custom Size)" and made it 640x480. I then changed it back to "Full Screen (keep Aspect Ratio)" so it greyed out 640x480. But it still shows "Video-CD NTSC (MPEG-1 352x240 29.97fps CBR 1150kbps, Layer-2 44100Hz 224kbps)" at the bottom of the main screen.
Can I just ask what the point of resizing to a larger resolution is? The image won't look any better and will become out of spec.
If you still insist on resizing the image to make it larger even though it is pointless then you must change the output resolution to 640x480 by loading the unlock.mcf template then clicking Setting>Video and then alter the size.
The settings you have changed only affect the input resolution not the output.
Simply set the input to 4:3 525 line (NTSC) and fullscreen aspect ratio and the output as above.
