Kris  2003-01-03 01:27:54 ( ID:xapkon0ds0f )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Hi friends,
I have firewire card for my DV camera. Is there any method or peripherals that I can connect my VCR to that card to catch VHS vedio to PC to produce VCDs (without using DV camera). I am new bee to this. So can you educate me how to do it, if it is possible to produce VCDs from VHS thru firewire card. Advance thanks.

Looks like the best solution to me. I did the research a while ago, just haven't bought it yet.


Minion  2003-01-04 05:45:23 ( ID:w8yn5mktf8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Some DV Cameras Have RCA Inputs in them that will let you Plug in your VCR and then it will Convert the analog Signal to a Digital Signal...Or you Can Buy a $20 analog Capture Card to capture from VHS...



Question - TE25 - Jerky sync on playback on DVD player No.32777
gary lafferty  2003-01-03 01:13:19 ( ID:4adzcnohuc. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Hi, I have a question about playing back VCD's on my DVD player. I have used TMPEGenc to create the VCD's, which playback fine on the PC. But when I play them on my DVD player, every few minutes the sound will go out of sync with the video. Then the playback becomes jerky until the sound is sync'd again.

I am already using a .WAV file from VritualDub to encode with the .AVI file.

I have 1 disk that plays okay, the others are all jerky. Could this be something to do with the 'field order' setting in TMpegEnc ?

Any/all advice much appreciated.

I have used this software for the 1st time. Created a test conversion avi>mpeg2 and got a .m2v file and a .wav file. Please can you tell me how I can use these files or a series of these files to burn my DVD..? am using Pinnacle Express... Thank you for your help

This is a Job for your DVD Authoring program...so read the instructions for your authoring program or go to the Support site for your Authoring program Cuz we aren"t experts in Pinnacle software and this isn"t a Pinnacle forum...

Thank you and sorry for having asked you such question. Nonetheless, can TMPGEnc-2.59.47.155-Free burn a project to my DVD-R..?

Question2 if I may: Why can't I read the m2v file created? How can I?

Thank you your help


jdacunha  2003-01-03 03:11:21 ( ID:mxx4cvozknr )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

You can not burn a DVD with TMPGEnc. It encodes/creates a MPEG file so you can author and burn for instance with NeroVision Express or Ulead DVD factory.

Question - TE25 - AVIsynth help No.32765
Bobby  2003-01-02 22:44:57 ( ID:n3gjkhi6dvc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Hi Guys ....
Ashy and Minion you were really helpful with a previous question and I wondered whether I could pick your brains again ... please.
I have seen a number of posts where you recommend using AVIsynth to get rid of the jerky playback when converting AVI to DVD MPEG2.
Unfortunatley ... I've tried everything and scoured the net for a newbie guide and I still can't get AVIsynth to work. I've downloaded AVIsynth and can run basic scrips (i.e. 'VERSION' etc.) and I'm sure that what I want to do is simple but it's driving me insane !
Here's what I want to do ..I simply want to convert a 23.976fps AVI movie to either 25fps (720x576) PAL or 29.97fps (720x480)using AVIsynth (or anything else) to get rid of the jerkiness. This is so I can burn to DVD.
I'm confused about all the different command such as 'BOB', 'DOUBLEWEAVE' and 'CHANGEFPS' etc. etc.
Could anyone provide an easy step by step guide on exactly what to do to get this to work. Even better, a working script that I could copy and paste would be wonderful.

I'll be forever grateful .... Thanks,
Bobby.


Minion  2003-01-02 23:37:03 ( ID:a6p1jd3ovjw )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

If you have a 23.9fps file you can convert it to 29.9fps without useing AVISynth, you just need to use 3:2 pulldown in Tmpgenc, or maybe the "23.9fps/29.9fps internall" frame rate setting...


Bobby  2003-01-03 08:56:24 ( ID:vlkemahcicr )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Thanks for the swift response Minion.
I am aware that I can use 3:2 pulldown and in fact this is what I have been doing.
However, this is where the jerky playback seems to come from even though I am using very high bitrates and high quality settings.
I have converted AVI movies that originated at 25fps and converted them to MPEG2 at 25fps and everything was smooth.
This is why I assumed the jerky playback on converted 23.9fps must be due to
TMPGEnc's inability to convert FPS properly?
Am I wrong ???


Mark  Home )  2003-01-03 10:27:43 ( ID:8otx2zn0lfj )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Changing frame rate will always make the video jerkier. The amount of degradation depends on the ratio between the old and new frame rates.

Think about what it is trying to do: the original file has a stream of images spaced at x ms apart, and the software has to re-space those same images to give a stream y ms apart. It can only do this by duplicating or dropping images: only very advanced software can "morph" new intermediate images. Every duplication of dropped frame will make the stream noticeably jerkier.


Bobby  2003-01-03 12:44:30 ( ID:vlkemahcicr )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Thanks Mark,

I unuderstand what you are saying but that brings me back to my original question .... can AVIsynth (or anything else) sort this problem out?
Or am I stuck with jerky playback on 23.9FPS AVI's converted to DVD format?



ASHY  2003-01-03 19:50:17 ( ID:n3gjkhi6dvc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Sorry mark, but I'm going to have to disagree with you here.
Your right changing framerate can cause artifacts, but using 3:2 pulldown to convert 23.976 to 29.97 shouldn't cause this as there is no frame duplication or dropping by the software.
This is acheived by the player duplicating ceratain frames in particular sequence.

3:2 pulldown simply adds flags not frames to tell the player which frames to repeat.

Bobby as for the jerky playback is your AVI a progressive AVI and not interlaced and definitely 23.976 fps?

Also are you using the correct setting. DO NOT use the 3:2 pullown option under the advanced tab.
You need to use the '3:2 pulldown when playback' option where it says 'encode mode' under the 'Video' tab.

The easiest way is to load your file then load the DVD(ntsc) template and unlock the settings.
Change the framerate to 23.976 then change the 'Encode mode' to '3:2 pulldown when playback' this will then change the framerate setting to '23.976 fps(internally 29.97 fps)'

Ensure no other filters are checked. You should now be able to encode without jerky playback.

If this doesn't work correctly then there must be some problem with original AVI. If you really need the AVIsynth script then post back.

ASHY

Question - TE25 - Merge MPEG-1 mke a Beep. No.32761
DR  2003-01-02 20:56:31 ( ID:en4i.d3qock )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Hello,
Almost each time that I am using mpeg tools to merge two MPEG-1 VCD video clips, a Beep is produced between each video clips on the output file (with or without "correct") My TMPGEnc version is 2.59.47.155
Any Idea ?
Thank you.


ASHY  2003-01-02 21:30:11 ( ID:n3gjkhi6dvc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

This is an error caused by incorrect joining of GOPs. Using the 'Correct' button should prevent this but not always.
It can usually be solved by shifting the join point a few frames on the end of the first file or the start of the second file with the 'Edit' button or try demultiplexing the files then join the video and audio files seperately. Then just re-multiplex the two together.

Hey, guys. I'm new at this so you'll have to bear with me here. After I click on start to begin encoding, I get an error that says "Can't load "P3Package.dll"." Could someone tell me what this means and how to fix it?


Randy  2003-01-02 22:17:19 ( ID:/ahdtgqxs62 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Tony,

I got the same error and have no idea what is means.
If you figure it out, will you email me the fix

Tony,

Here is the answer

Scroll down to find the link regarding this problem

I reinstalled the TMPGenc software and did not delete the zip folder and now
it works

Randy


Minion  2003-01-02 23:32:13 ( ID:a6p1jd3ovjw )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

This is Because you don"t have ALL of the Tmpgenc files in the same folder...ALL the tmpgenc files have to be extracted to the same folder and not just sitting on your Desktop...

Sean Webb  2003-01-02 20:37:48 ( ID:uqxvzbvslgo )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Maybe someone can give me some advise, I have been using TMP for the last 7-8 months very successfully, all of a sudden about 5 weeks ago my laptop will automatically shutdown during the course of tryign to encode. The system is a Compaq Presario P4 2.2Ghz with 512 MB DDR, 60 GB HDD, and ideas from anyone would be greatly appreciated, considering Compaq will not help me any.

Thank you


Mark  Home )  2003-01-03 10:32:41 ( ID:8otx2zn0lfj )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

The only way TMPGEnc can do this is with the "shut down after encoding" setting: but you say the shutdown is "during the course of encoding" - ie. before it has finished.

Check your laptop's power saving features. If it's running XP, I believe there are separate settings for battery and AC operation - make sure it's not set to hibernate after a certain time on AC power.

If you leave the machine on, but not running TMPGEnc, does the problem still occur?

The only other problem I can think of is a dodgy power supply or connection. TMPGEnc will drain the battery very quickly due to high CPU and HD use: if the PSU isn't connected properly, XP will force the machine to hibernate just before the battery runs out.


Sean Webb  2003-01-03 13:42:47 ( ID:uqxvzbvslgo )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

No - all the power saving setting are set to "always on". Leaving the machine on and running any other program is fine, it is just the mpeg encoding programs that will cause the machine to shutdown. I can imagine it is a intense power and cpu drainer, but why to just start all of a sudden?

Thank You

This is Because the audio in the source files is not supported By Tmpgenc, you need to extract the audio from the source file to WAV with something like "Virtual Dub" and use that as the audio source...
