I am trying to convert a avi -> mpeg but I can add the video source but normally my audio sources have been the same but now, TMPENC says that the file is not suitable for the job. How can I add sound now ?

thanks.

Just use the Search-Button in this forum. This questions is answered very often.

Hello

I've encoded a movie with Tmpgenc 2.523.63.181 and got the following result
http://unserboard.free.fr/dv/video2.m2v

A pretty jerky video. It never happend, but one day it started to get jerky somehow.

here are the properties of the source, i frameserved it from Adobe Premiere into Tmpgenc.

And here are the setting i used with Tmpgenc
http://unserboard.free.fr/dv/settings.png


I've already tried it without the "No motion search..."
i tried to change the field order(actually no nessecary)
and I did try the "motion search precision" with highest quality.



anynone any ideas..... I would cry tears if somebody could help me out.

Bye

Robert

Looks... interesting. Every 5th frame is a copy of the previous frame.
Maybe you project settings in premiere where wrong (PAL instead of NTSC)

jesus I am a dumb f***

adobe gave a framerate of 25 frames/sek and I was encoding 29.97 frames/sek

I could have thought of this myself. But lucky there are people like you that help out noobs like me :)


thanks a lot

Trying to add different format MPG files to TMPGENC DVD author eg 16.9 and 4.3

IS there any way of doing this ?

Many other programs allow this

Thanks

That's VERY simple... Read the manual!
Each file has to be imported as an single track.
You can't combine different formats into one track.

When trying to access a video I imported onto my hard drive with TMPGEnc I get a messege saying "The image is invalid." What is going on?

What do you mean access a video?
Play it with a media player, open it with TMPG...what?

I'm having the same thing when trying to load any .mcf template with TMPGEnc 2.5 plus.

It comes up with 'The Image is Invalid'

How come?

Jack

DOH - What a dufus I am!

I didn't realise that one has to load the .mcf templates using the LOAD and SAVE buttons at the bottom right of the main window, along with the 'SETTINGS' button.

Grrrrr

Looks like I'm gonna have to re-do my vidz

hi i need the last version 3

Just download it...

buy it.

Hi,
Iam trying to convert a mpeg2 file to a vcd file using the free version of TMPEGnc. On opening the source, only the video file is grabed and the audio file does not import in. What shoulkd I do??

What format is the MPEG2 file. Is it in VOB form?
If it is ordinary MPEG2 then you don't need to re-encode the audio anyway. Just demultiplex it with the MPEGtools.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. This is an ordinary mpeg2 file which I ripped using uled movie factory. Iam trying to convert it to a mpeg1 file to make a vcd. On loading the file, only the video gets loaded in. The audio does not load in. Thus, only the video gets outputted without the audio. If I try to load the audio alone from the same file, it says that the file is unsupported. How does video from the same file loads but not the audio. Need help. Thanks1

Lishen.

Load the MPEG2 file into the simple demultiplexer in the MPEGtools. This will seperate the Video and audio. Then try and load them into TMPG seperately.

Hi,
Thankyou for the reply. I tried you suggestion. The file was seperated as video as.m2v and audio as .ac3 files. Now to convert it into mpeg1 I imported the video and on importing the audio, it says .ac3 is an unsupported formate. Tmpegnc wont open the file that it has created?? Now i've been on this for a few days and really need solutions. Your help is very much appereciate it. Thanks!
Regards
Lishen.

Ok, so it has AC3. This is what is what I guessed and why I asked if it was in VOB form.

You will need to convert the AC3 to wav. You can use a few differenvt programs for this.
One I have used in the past is called AC32WAV by PX3 or another one called AC3DEC.

Hi Lishen,

Take the AC3 file and convert it to a wav file using Ac3Decode. Make sure you click "convert to 44.1khz" and "convert to wav". Drag the ac3 file onto the program and it will convert it.

You can download Ac3Decode for free from:
http://www.users.on.net/~rsobon/bin/ac3decode821.zip

The web site is:
http://www.users.on.net/~rsobon/ac3dec.html

Next take the wav file and re-encode your mpeg2 file using the mpeg2 file as the video source and the wav file as the audio source. Make sure you load a video CD template and name your output file something different than the original file name.

You cannot simply multiplex the two files (that were de-multiplexed)unless you convert the wav file to a mp2 file. Even if you did using TMPGEnc MPEG Tools to multiplex them using the MPEG-1 Video-CD template you would simply end up with a non-compliant mpeg2 movie.

I hope this of help to you.

For simple cut and joining, the TMPGEnc MPEG Editor would be better than Nero Recode as only the needed sections are re-encoded?

In more detail, I have Nero Recode due to having the Nero 6 package, but noticed a loss of quality when using Nero Recode 2.1 to simply cut out a section of a VHS to DVD .VOB file to reduce its length.

I assume this means that Nero Recode re-encodes both sections again rather than just the areas with the editing? So if I want to cut out sections and have no loss of quality I should buy the TMPGEnc MPEG Editor, too?

Doing some more reading, I see that there is another frame accurate MPEG2 editor, the Womble MPEG-VCR editor, or the newer, costlier, Womble MPEG Video Wizard, that also avoids re-encoding.

How do those products compare to TMPEGEnc's MPEG Editor?

I have downoaded and installed Real Alternative 1.37. But when I tried to convert rmvb files, error message saying "rmvb file cannot open, or unsupported". Have I missed some procedures? What about the settings?

How can I converse my RMVB files to MPEG of MPEG files?
It can help me transfer my movie files to my PSP.
Help me anyway!
Thanks a lot.

The only rmvb converter out there is eoVideo.
Get that and you should be able to convert to mpeg 1, 2 and avi.

SF

Quicktime alternative and TMPEG.

How do I convert rmvb files downloaded from bt so that they can be view on tv either in vcd or dvd format.
Apparently rmvb files are not supported by TMPGenc

There are quite a few programs that allow you to convert from RM files to MEPG. Through personal experience, WinAVI Video convertor is the best. Every file comes out high quality. I have used EO Video and although it was pretty good it was very slow and sometimes it did produce corrupted files.

Once you convert it to MPEG all you need to do it author it to DVD.

It is best to search around to find other RM convertors and see which one you prefer.

When i enter a certain vob into TDA , a message appears , its sais
This Is A illegal video file.
For A Standard DVD You Can Only Use

MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 Video.

I really need help on how to fix this problem, can anyone help me out?

Thanks.

there is an import function for vob files. use that instead of drag and drop the video file... ;)

This also happens with mpeg2 files so that wouldnt help me at any rate
(even correctly formated DVD standard files sometimes - it seems random)

I cant see any "import" command for VOB files either where is that?

Hey all,

I have a Finalcut Pro movie file which I would like to convert to MPEG-2 (this Mac doesn't have the MPEG-2 codec installed). TMPGEnc won't convert it directly, but I have the capability of exporting the Finalcut movie to any number of intermediate DV formats, which I could then import into TMPGEnc.

Does anyone know which DV format TMPGEnc would like that Finalcut Pro can produce? I tried one tonight which didn't work, and I'd like to avoid further trial and error.

Thanks!
