I recently upgraded my computer to 64 Bit Win7 with a GTX260 video card. Since the upgrade I have not been able to get any Cuda encoding to function. I have tried uninstalling, reinstalling, different codecs, reinitializing, latest NVidia Drivers...nothing work. I have tested my machine with LoiLoScope and Cuda works, but it does not work in TmPG Express. Another side note is that Divx crashes the application (versions 5,6,and7).

Does anyone have any suggestions...I am truly bummed since I bought the machine for video editing.

I have included the event log entry for the Divx crash below.

4.7.3.292 is the latest, get it and see if that fixes the issues

Besides updating to the latest version of 4.0 XPress, you might also want to try reverting your CUDA driver to version 191.

I cant burn DivX Project to dvd?

You can burn DivX projects to DVD but if you have DivX menus, you'll only be able to see them if you play it on a DivX Ultra certified DVD player or on your computer with DivX Player software.

If you are having a technical issue with burning a DivX project to DVD then you'll have to be more specific.

1. Is there any limit to the size of the DivX Ultra file, I tried file with menus greater than 2GB was not working on my DVD Player but was working fine on DivX Player ( software ).

2. Is there a way to link two external divx files via the divx ultra menu so I may have two independent files and a separate file only for menu.

1. I'm not sure why it's not working on your DVD player...Do DivX Ultra files that are less than 2GB work fine? I think there was a 4GB limit due to the use of the avi format, but I'm not sure if that is still true.

2. When you make a DivX Ultra file, it just takes all the videos and menus and creates one big DivX file, so no, it's not possible to keep all the files separate. That's just how the format is unfortunately.

Hi everyone,

when i read my DVD on my DVD player it stops at the end of the first track without going to the top menu.

PAL mpeg II 4:3 with a firstrack & 4 Main Tracks
Individual BGM on top menu & Track
motion menu on Track 1

I had NO ERROR during the dvd creation process and everything seemed to be OK.
Furthermore any soft player (MAC or PC ) reads it without any problem.

Did anyone have to deal with the same problem ???
Is my DVD player to old ??? (it's not one of the latest generation device)

Hello,

I installed the Software a few weeks ago and it worked fine. Last Saturday I had to restore an image from August. I reinstalled the Software and now the Software doesn't start.

After a few seconds the message appears (Translated to English):

EAccessViolation at Modul TMPEnc4XP.exe / 62BCAE79
ReadError at Adress 62BCBE79 appears at 62BCBE79

I click on ok and get the message:

Runtime error 204 at 06632A64

I click on ok and get the message:

Runtime error 204 at 00402B1C

Than nothing happens.

I reinstalled the software without success.

What can I do?

With kind regards,
Uwe Sentis

try encoding onot a different hdd

The program didn't start...during startup of TMPEnc4 i get the error after 5 seconds...

i would say its either your master hard drive is dying, or you need to do a fresh install of your os

I am also getting this error. I also used all previous versions with no issue but reinstalled Windows 7 a couple of months ago. I installed the latest 4.7.3.292 and I'm also seeing the error. It's a problem with TMPGEnc Xpress, not our hardware and I haven't had any other programs crash on this machine, ever.

You can see the error here: http://lh3.ggpht.com/_JyLRK0gxVFI/SylIAd_4wEI/AAAAAAAAACE/I_LuJ-jT3SY/s800/Capture.JPG

After clicking ok to clear the error, I get several runtime 204 errors.

I tried 4.7.1.282 and I received the same crash, but version 4.6.3.268 works perfectly fine.

I uninstalled TMPGEnc, deleted the "\Documents and Settings\(user name)\My documents\TMPGEnc\TMPGEnc 4.0 XPress" folder and then uninstalled Quicktime at the request of a TMPGEnc Support Engineer. I then reinstalled the latest TMPGEnc 4.0 (4.7.292) and it opened successfully. I haven't tried to reinstall Quicktime and frankly, don't need it yet so I'm not sure if reinstalling it will bring the error back. Hope this helps.

I had the same problem was about to reinstall Vista because I couldn't figure it out. I uninstalled quicktime, and bam it works again. That is to weird...

And the worst part after it started up it gave me a message that to import quicktime files I need to install Quicktime. Go figure.

Thanks...this solved my problem also!

I just upgraded to the latest version, but in the last version, when I was finalizing the menu, when I wanted to move the play button down or up when it was unlocked, it would move in like spaces of three and always the same. In this version, it is able to just be dragged. I hope that makes sense. There has to be a setting for this I think.

There is a snap to grid option in the menu editor which is probably activated. It's one of the buttons in the lower right corner of the screen.

That worked..thank you!

Using Source Wizard - "From a DVD, BD, ..." - "From a Drive" option, I selected my DVD Drive and after some time popup a error message box saying "Not Analyzed".
The title of this windows is "VMELib".

I have only OK button.

Off course, the dvd content didn´t added to my project and I don´t know what is the problem.

I tried loading the content from a folder in the hard disk and it happened again.

Could anyone help me?

Thanks.

Is it a copy-protected DVD? That might be the problem.

Or it might be corrupted data on the DVD. Can you play it/import it with other software such as Nero, Roxio, etc.? Try playing it with VLC player and see if you can extract the MPEG data with it if possible.

All the DVDs are mine. Was recorded with my Sony DVD recorder.

In the past, I made this action lot of times, but with Windows 7 64 bits is the first one.

I´ll try with VLC o Roxio... If you have any other suggestion to me, please tell me.

Thanks

I play with VLC and "Codec Information" menu item, it says:

Type: Video
Codec: mpgv
Resolution: 720x480
Display resolution: 720x480
Frame Rate:29.97...

Type:Sound
Codec: a52
Channels:3F2R/LFE
Sample Rate: 48000Hz
BitRate:448 kb/s

With DVD Decrypter (www.dvddecrypter.com) I could extract the good part of the mini dvd. There was around 10 bad cells in the content.

After that, I could import correctly the VOB video files.

Thanks.

I have perosnally emailed support to see if a update will be made for creation of h.264 bluray disks, this is what it said :

"Request - support for authoring H.264 bluray disks without reencoding to MPEG2. Tmpgenc authoring works 4 work great creating mpeg2 bluray disks without reencoding when a compliant bluray mpeg2 file is used. However why is their no option to create h.264 bluray disks ? i use the spurs engine to harware encode mpge2 and h264. But using mpeg2 the video bitrate must be used at max (32Mb/s) for it to look any good. please add support for creation h264 blurays **without reencoding to mpeg2** in a future release. Also can you please tell me if this is currently being worked on, thought about or going to be implemented in a future release ???"

hopefully they get back to me, if and when they do i will post up the response.

regards Marty.

PS: i think the more people that do this the more chances we will get h264/AVC bluray disc creation with authoring works.

i have received an email back from tmpgenc staff regarding this matter and it reads :

"It is in our plan to offer H.264 format for BDMV output but it will take
time to implement, and at this time Smart Rendering is rather difficult."

Yours Sincerely,

So, 10 months down the line and they still haven't got it sorted!!!

How hard can it be to implement?

Its seems they are still iving in the DVD age with MPEG2 encoding, yet everyone else has moved on.

Dear,

I am wondering what is the best way to have all conversion using 4.0 XPress to MPEG (DVD 4.7 WIDE Standard)so when I import the video to Authoring Works 4 it would NOT recode the file , meaning lossing quality.

Basic , i don´t want to loose quality recoding twice. Whats the best way to impor the videos for Author Works 4 so the video complain with all specs for Standard DVD.

Thanks

Reinaldo

i do this too for DVD and bluray, this way i know the files will be complient. If you are making a DVD use the 'DVD standard mpeg file' set your settings appropriate to your video and have the video bitrate 9200 kb/s (max video bitrate tmpgenc4 express offers) and you will be fine and authoring works wonr re-encode the file.

Hello Friend,
Yes i did that, but i have a feeling that is recoding again. There is a option on Authr.Works on GENERAL -> Genereal Track Settings -> DO NOT ADJUST THIS TRACK SIZE. There is not much info ont he help, but i believe is the one to turn OFF the recode of Mpeg Files. What do you think?

I use DVD standard MPEG file, the only difference i set a bitrate of 4500 VBR, because i need to include at least 1 hour and 30 min of video on a DVD5.

Reinaldo

In Authoring Works 4, does the clip have the Full Rendering icon (red FR) or the Smart Rendering icon (blue SR) in the Source stage? If it's marked as Smart Rendering then you don't need to worry.
What makes you think it's re-encoding anyway?

I have a track that has a 12 sec slide show and then 1 min 43 sec video clip. I can get my recoreded audio into the slide show ok. But when I insert the audio into the video clip (next within the track)the video clip audio starts part way through. I think it is starting 12 sec into the video clip. How can I get the video clip audio to start at the beginning of the video clip?

Should all my audio tracks be joined into one audio track and just inserted into the beginning the total track.

I am making a tutorial DVD

Thanks for your help.

I've been encoding a few MKV files to WMV-HD with Xpress, and 90% of the time they encode perfectly. However, every so often I come across the odd MKV file that encodes fine, but the last 20 minutes or so of the movie (sometimes longer) begins stuttering. The audio is fine, but the video stutters ever so slightly. It's faint, but enough to make you slightly woozy if you're watching it. And I have NO idea what's causing it. The MKV, if played by itself, doesn't pose the same issue, and when I use Handbrake to convert it to mp4 it also plays fine. However, if I convert that mp4 to WMV-HD, I get the same problem. I don't think I have any codec issues. I only have DivX 7 Pro and XviD installed, and use DivX for my HD encoding. I used to have K-Lite before I reformatted my computer, but chose to leave it off to avoid any possible conflicts. I can't imagine what the problem is, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I just installed Xpress 4.7.3.292 in Windows 7 and when it starts my whole screen turns to 16 colors, but Xpress starts up. Once started (and barely readable), however, I can not add an input file by either drop-and-drag or using the "add file" button. I used the trial version previously on XP and really liked it, but after buying this for Win 7, I am having significant problems even getting started.

Have you tried right-clicking on the .exe file in your program files folder, going to properties and using the Compability Wizard (compatability tab)? I don't have Windows 7, but I imagine the Comp. Wizard would still be kicking around. I had a problem with 4.7.3.292 on Vista, and used this. I set it to run for XP Service Pack 2 and it works, but whenever it's open it turns off Aero, though that's a small price to pay.

To recap: right click on .exe file in program files, go to Properties, Compatability tab, check the Compatability mode box and run it for XP (if this still applies in Windows 7).

Hope this helps.

That did it. Many thanks.

I just wonder is it possible to add more than 2 subtitles to dvd video project in TMPGEnc Authoring works4.
thanks
