I have a question regarding cropping and encoding interlaced video. I am capturing interlaced signal from a Hi8 camcorder and obviously there's some junk on all sides. I crop it and optionally resize (for fullscreen). the question is, how does it affect interlace (1) and MPEG encoder (2). AFAU, there are several scenarios. lets outline a couple:
1. the image is cropped and then upscaled to full DVD resolution. this is simple for horisontal scale, but non-obvious for vertical, since several lines have to be added. I don't understand how vertical upscale works with interlaced video. either pairs of fields are duplicated every now and then, which is not the best upscale algorithm, or the image is deinterlaced, upscaled, and then interlaced again, which kinda misses the point of interlace. what does TmpgEnc do when I choose crop+fullscreen ?
1. back bands are created around the image. encoder will waste bandwidth encoding them and there will be artefacts near the edges. this is the scenario for crop+center AFAIU.
I would be extemely helpful if someone answers these two questions and possibly recommends what interlace/crop/scale options of TmpgEnc I should use to make DVDs out of my Hi8 recordings.
I've been working with TMPGEnc for the past 6 years and I've never experienced any serious problems with it...however, I've encountered a very rare unusual problem. I use dvd2avi for my movie files and then I transfer them to the TMPGEnc encoder and they work fine, but I have one in particular to where the video runs faster than the audio. I guess what I'm trying to ask is: how do I get the video to slow down in the encoder to match the audio?? I've tried going to the audio gap correct and adjusting that and it doesn't do any good and if I DO get it to run right, it'll make the audio sound like donald duck so I need to slow the video file down, but I don't know how....Please help me out if you can...Thanks alot!!
I am trying to convert a widescreen .avi file to an mp2 to burn it onto a dvd. everytime i try doing this the picture is chopped in half. one half is correct and the other is small. i tried to mess with the options and can't figure it out.
i'm new to this and just can't figure it out. is it even possible?
Hello, I try to convert a number of films with TMPGEnc 4 Express into AVI(divx)-format. to reach quality as high as possible I want to use for it the multi-pass procedure of DivX. If I adjust DivX under output format, thus the included Encoder, it works. However I licenced and would like also the "real" DivX, newest version, to make use of the extended attitudes of this version. The multi-pass procedure to use over here one must naturally encode the same film twice. Unfortunately the batch Encoder does not permit that, because the "second" file has the same name as first. If I do remind right, that was with TMPGEnc Express 3 no problem, and it should be none here, so can I somehow turn it off? Greeting Heinz Juergen
TMPGEnc 2.5 is working mighty fine, but after converting a movie from AVI to MPEG a splash of rainbow-colors appear at some scenes along the bottom of the picture, taking up almost half the frame. What causes this, and what can I do?
I had the same issue, I resolved it by uninstalling ffdshow, divx, AC3 (and all other codecs on system). After, I re-installed ffdshow 20020617, divx 5.21, and AC3ACM v1.31. I then set the environmetal settting, VFAPI directshow to 2 (higher than others). Works fine again.
this is my first time doing this and some one told me how to do it but i forgot wat that told me (its all the weeds falt)lol well i sut split a pss file into the video and sound how to i make them inot one file to i can play them on Windows Media Player so i can wach the video with the sound i nned them syined up
