The link does work, just copy it and paste it into your browser. The last part isn't recognized by this page which is why you can't directly click on it.
yea i know that link works, i was actually referring to the link on the site (once you pasted that bit into your browser) the link to the actual file that i need to get at
I know that burning VCD's at higher speeds than 4 speed will almost definately cause problems with playback, it becomes unwatchable at the end on mine. But I was wondering, what about burning SVCD's at higher speeds, will this cause the same problem?
ok i took dvd decrypter ripped the vob files, used dvd2avi- used tmpeg, made a 3.7gig mpeg2 file which plays fine on the computer but when i burn the file to a dvd-r, it's choppy when i play the disc on my stand alone dvd players but the disc runs fine if i play it back on my computer.? can anybody tell me what im doing wrong or what the problem might be, cuz these dvd-r disc are not cheap!..... any help would be appreciated.....
Choppyness can be atributed to a Few things, depending on what type of choppyness it is, Firstly make sure that you encoded the File to the Correct Frame rate(29.97 For NTSC, 25fps for Pal)and make sure that you have the Correct Field order set when encodeing this can cause a Choppyness when the Camera Pans or things Moove, and Sometimes with Files encoded By Tmpgenc can have bitrate spikes were the Bitrate suddenly jumps too high for your Player to handle and this causes a Choppyness were the Video will seem to slow down then speed up and the audio stays the same but Can cut out at times, if this is the Problem you can usually tell by Running the File through a Bitrate Viewer and see if the Bitrate Jumps Past 9800kbs or Jumps from say 3000kbs to say 9000kbs really Quickly, this causes a Chopyness cuz the Disk can not speed up fast enough for the Player to read the Sudden Increased Data Rate..You should get a Few DVD-RW"s so you can do a Test burn without wasteing a Disk, and you can find DVD-R"s on ebay for adout 50 Cents to $1 if you buy a fifty or a Hundred at a Time....
A lot of the lately downloaded avi (divx) file give the message "... can not open or unsupported". I can not convert those files to svcd anymore. Who can help?
You should use the "Search" Function before you ask your Questions Cuz this Question gets asked Many times every day, The Problem is that the audio format in your AVI File is not supported in Tmpgenc OR you do not have the Correct Codec/Filters to decode the audio, You should use something like "Virtual Dub" or "AVI-Mux" to Extract the audio to "WAV" format, then use the WAV File as the audio source...
Help!!!!
I have downloaded TMPGEnc Plus 2.5 demo version. When I try to load my video and audio information I get an error message that says I cannot use this as an external encoder. Has anyone else encountered this? Is there anyway around this problem? If I use DVD2SVCD I can use it as an encoder only but I cannot use any of the settings or created templetes.
Only the Mpeg2 encodeing Function can expire But you can use the Mpeg1 forever, It would only say that it has expired if at some point in the Past you had downloaded the Trial/Free version..You can only install Tmpgenc once Ever, you only get one shot at useing Tmpgenc"s Mpeg2 encodeing function and after that you have to Buy it, even if you downloaded it and only ran it once then deleted it you still can never use it again, Unless you do a Total Re-install of your OS but that is Quite a Hassle to just be able to use Tmpgenc for a Month.....
running TMPGEnc 2.510 gives write errors in module ntdll.dll
They appear at startup of program but alsoo hitting the browse button when loading an avi.
Abybody having the same experiences?
Please advice.
I am also just recently having the same problem. I have been using Tmpeg for quite some time now with no problems. And i am at a lost with what to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I, too, want to fit an entire MPEG movie on one VCD. However, I always seem to miss the end of the movie, whether the file is over 700 MB or under. I have only had success once, and don't know what I am doing differently now. Can someone please help me? (And the quality is about the same as VHS)
Even standard VCD"s don"t look as good as VHS But I guess that depends on the VHS tape and the VCR used...And I"m sure that you know that you can Fit up to 800MB on a 700mb 80min CD-R, and to fit more minutes of VCD on a CD-R you have to first set the "System" setting to "Video-CD Non-Standard" then you have to lower the Bitrate, what you would lower it to would depend on how long the movie is ,a Good Bitrate calculator would come in Handy for this, and try Lowering the Audio Bitrate also....
I have 4 full svcd files that need to be merged to be put on a dvd. I cannot figure out how to keep audio in sync with the movie. I know I need to make it at 44100 instead of 448 but I cant figure it out..any help appreciated!
You are NOT dumb. There are a whole host of issues that make this kind of stuff difficult. By svcd files, what do you mean? Four standalone Mpeg files?
FYI. Files on a DVD-R must be <1GB and audio must be 48K for play in a DVD player.
One alternative is to use DVD authoring software and load the files as 4 titles that "autoplay" in sequence. There is a slight pause between titles with this method.
When merging mpeg files with TMPGEnc, try triming a little off the end of each clip. Once merged, you will still have to use DVD authoring software to reformat as 1GB VOB files but there will be no pause between files and you can set contiguous chapter numbers.
There will be no pause between tracks as long as you instruct the burning software to remove the pauses between tracks.
Most burning software automatically puts a 2 sec pause between tracks, but this can be removed quite easily with most burning software.
With Nero it is a simple case of right clicking each file and selecting properties then 0 sec for the pause setting. Also use DAO as the burn method.
I can not create working PAL MPEG2 files for SVCD with TMPGEnc v2.510.
I'm using the new wizard. My source is an avi movie. First of all I split the sound and the picture. The picture is fed through VirtualDub for resizing and the frameserved into TMPGEnc. The sound is taken directly from a wav file into TMPGEnc. I use CBR, usually between 1600 and 2000kbps bitrate.
The resulting file is somehow not correct. I get up to 1 minute of correct playback and the nothing more. When I try to feed the file into for example VCDEasy it also informs me that there is something wrong with the file and that it will be cut.
I have made a bunch of NTSC SVCD's without encountering this problem.
I also think this problem is related to the one described in message no 20712.
Have you tried Not useing Virtual Dub to frame serve and Just load the file directly into Tmpgenc...Have you tried to Fix the SVCD by running it through the "Merge & Cut" with the SVCD Setting" and makeing a Copy of the File this can fix certain errors in the Header and the Mux rate??? and "Mpeg2VCR" has a Gop Fixer that you might try....
Thanks for your suggestions, but still... It's annoying!
I also use the exact same setup with NTSC movies without any problem.
The reason for using virtualdub is that it's functionallity for applying filters are way more advanced.
With the Merge & Cut, MPEG2 CBR is not available. Is it ok to run the SVCD VBR setting?
Yes you can use the VBR setting in the "Merge & Cut", Have you tried the "Advanced Settings" in Tmpgenc for applying filters?? Cuz there are A huge ammount of adjustable Filters in the Advanced settings that should be comparable to V-Dub Filters, there are 16 seperate filters just for De-interlaceing alone..
Hi,
I am trying to multiplex audio and video with the tools provided.
Do you know, how a batch-processing is possible?
Furthermore, I'd like to know, why I am getting errors like 198762i Frames .... buffer underrun - I am getting the video and audio fully PAL DVD-compliant directly from my satellite Receiver: video is 720x576, average bitrate about 3 Mb/s , audio is MPEG1 Layer 2 192kB/s, but for several reasons, I had to convert it to AC3 Stereo 192Kb/s with Besweet first. Any clue, what's happening?
If you are Getting Buffer underflow errors then the Files are NOT DVD Compliant, the Packet length is not Compliant with Mpeg2/DVD Standards the Packet length for Compliant DVD files has to be 2048kb, this is very Common with Digital Satalite Captures you Might be able to fix that with PVstrumento, these Buffer underflow errors Can make the File Un Playable if you get too many and if the Packet length is to far off..And besides Tmpgenc"s Mpeg tools only officially support files that have been encoded By Tmpgenc so it isn"t meant to be used on other Files....
Thanks for the explanation. Just a small update: your comment on the compliancy is very interesting. Usually, I demux the program stream using ds.jar, which is a tool, that is even better than PVStrumento in terms of error correction, compliancy etc. I have been authoring dozens of DVDs with this method, using IfoEdit, and never had any problems playing the DVDs on my standalones (an old sony 315 from way back then, a Pioneer 454).
So I guess, maybe converting the audio-files from the original MPEG1Layer2 to AC3 with BeSweet could be a reason? I never got these error-messages, when I muxed the orginal files for test-purposes with TMPGenc-Tools.
Any hints on what to do would be more than appreciated!
Also an answer to the question, whether I could batch-mux with the Tools (I found no way so far) or whether there is a tool somewhere, that has these capabilities.
Well you might be able to use "BBMpeg" to do Batch Muxing, I haven"t tried it But I think there is a Batch feature with BBMpeg, It will also give you a Log file with any Packet length errors, it will tell you what packet is not Mpeg2 compliant and how much off the Packet size is off..You never know the Buffer underflow errors could be a Tmpgenc Problem, I guess all that really matters is that they Play correctly on your DVD Player...
