My Mastering Works 5 encoding seems to have become very slow recently. Short, 10 minute clips now take 45 minutes and more. The slowness does not seem to be based on the type of file I have inputted, but an MP4 seems to be a major offender.
Can someone enlighten me, please? Have I possibly changed a setting, accidentally, or something?
Because if they had the support for DTS and HD audio, then you would have to pay up to 5 times as much for the Pegasys software.
Why do you think that all the other editor and authoring software who do have the support is so darn expensive?
Besides, their software was not created for some one like you to be working with all the illegally downloaded Blu-ray rips of yours. It is mainly focused on working with home videos that people filmed using their own video cameras, where the typical audio in those are standard Dolby Digital 2.0 or 5.1
If you don't like it, feel free to pay the $500 to $2000 for the software to get your precious DTS and HD audio support. No one is forcing you stick with the software from Pegasys.
hi
is there a pdf manual for tmpgenc authoring works 5, there are so many things that i dont know about it and all i am doing is asking support all the time to help me, a manual would be good, just lookup the index and goto the page of what you need and read a full description and follow the instructions would be great. I have had to purchase pinnacle 20 ultimate as they have a manual and it is step by step
Over a month ago I started having issues with the CUDA aspect with regards to this software and another two TMPGEnc software packages. Initially they were very responsive and had several suggestions which I tried, in the end they had me delete a couple of files from each software package directories and this has essentially permanently disables the CUDA part.
Since then I have heard nothing more and they no longer respond to further requests in this matter.
Are they admitting defeat in that their software is buggy and by ignoring the issue it doesn't exist?
Given the money I have invested in this company over the years, this is very poor and makes me think twice on further support. Why should I support them if they turn their backs on me.
I don't know about your issues, but i have no problems with CUDA in TAW5 or TVMW5
The NVIDIA driver i use is 353.30 for my Asus GeForce GTX650-E-2GD5, where the CUDA was recognized immediately after updating to that driver version.
Have Windows 7 64 bit by the way, never wasted my time on 8, 8.1 or 10
I have updated the NVIDIA drivers several times now, but have not tried reinstalling each piece of software to see if it has been rectified.
The main issue is that support have hung me out to dry, don't even have the decency to say they have no idea, they now ignore any request from me for support on this matter.
I see that my comment here don't even invoke a response. thanks for your money, now shutup.
Just so you know, all updated drivers have disabled CUDA for video encoding. Nvidia only uses NVENC now, which is the hardware on their cards. I know your post is 4 months old, but if you're still using CUDA, your hardware is ancient and should be replaced. NVIDIA stopped supporting CUDA for video transcoding 3 years ago. http://forums.guru3d.com/showthread.php?t=391269
Persen is stuck in a time warp, that is why their stuff still works. Old hardware, with old software and old drivers. All of us with newer hardware are waiting for NVENC support, as they have already offered it in Video Mastering works 6 and PGMX creator, but NOT for Authoring Works 5. Hopefully it's in 6, as VSO software has NVENC available in their bluray conversion software, and it costs considerably less.
If you have the codec, then it might be able to work by selecting a different file reader when you open the file.
You can do that by selecting a different file reader in the file explorer window that appears when importing your file. There is a drop down menu next to the filename text area. Just select one of the "Force Reader blah blah blah" options in the menu.
My mp4 avc videos from Sony SL smartphone have Variable frame rate: for example, frame rate 29.685 fps, minimum frame rate 14.847 fps, maximum frame rate 30.354 fps. When I edit this video in TMPGEnc MPEG Smart Renderer 5 it frame rate is constant 29,723 fps. The resulting video with sound desynchronizes(( I need output video with variable frame rate.
It is my wish to edit videos with variable framerate in TMPGEnc MPEG Smart Renderer 5. Thank you.
I am trying to export 10 Channel audio from a quicktime and if I encode to 5.1 (channels are labeled correctly in ID) then the audio is phased.
I cannot export separate audio files either as audio has the same issue.
I am trying to convert 23.976 QT to 25 frame MPEG2 with multichannel audio.
The software description implies that it can detect commercial breaks but trying with a mp4 video, that has a number of long (5 second) black parts in it, detects nothing! Am I missing something here? Do I need to buy the "TMPGEnc Movie Plug-in Commercial Candidates Detector" ?
The Commercial Candidates Detector is already integrated into the software I think. I'm not sure it will work on a 5 second black segment though, as I think it looks for segments that are the length of normal commercials (15 seconds, 30 seconds, etc.).
Other video editors that have this facility (VideoRedo for example) search for black frames and I assumed this worked the same way. This is how I'm doing it at the moment, using VideoRedo to find the ad breaks and Smart Renderer 5 to do the editing. I was hoping to be able to do it all in SR5.
Interestingly I've now used SR5 with some films with full advert breaks and it works reasonably well however, it does only seem to detect black or fixed frames on a few seconds long so I don't see why it shouldn't work with the programmes I had tried that had some simple black sequences of 5 seconds or so.
The Smart Rendering Analyzer, such as it is, is a helpful tool for gauging the extent of re-encoding that will take place, but I would find it far more useful if this feature could be enhanced so that those specific frames that are marked for re-encoding are identified and distinguished in some way (color highlight or similar) on the Clip Edit Window timeline.
Surely this is something that could be easily implemented, even it it requires 'refreshing' the smart analysis after editing ?
Further thoughts - maybe could make this an option in the Preferences, so that when selected the Smart Rendering Analysis is automatically refreshed when clicking 'OK' after editing in the Clip Edit Window. Sure you'd have to wait a bit longer for the analysis to complete, but the information gained would be far more useful than the existing representation.
I crrated an avchd folder with Menü. Than I created an ISOfile og the folder using Imageburn. My WD mediaplayer goes to the menue but EhenI push the play button the Wd goes to the Usb drive routedirectory instead oft playing the movie
I am trying to split mp4 recorded multiple movies videos into the different movies and everytime it lists the clips as rescue. Is there a way to fix this. I tried spliting a mpg and it split fine. I also tried with Mastering Works Trial and it split. I have the trial version of both to see what will work before buying.
