TMPGEnc Authoring Works 4 BBS [ Sorted by thread creation date ]
I have not experimented with this so I thought I would ask if anyone has. I want to add a bunch of clips to a project but the graph at the bottom of the screen shows my clips exceed the capacity of a standard 4.7 DVD. Will TAW4 automatically adjust the resolution and shrink the video to fit on the 4.7 disc?
Thanks
Then I guess there's some cracks I haven't tried. A lot of them can open, load, create a project, but somewhere during the project creation an error will come up or something won't work correctly.
My question is about screen size. I seem to not be able to get a full screen when I do the simulation and output parts. Events I have recorde in full screen do not come out that way in the simulation. Can anyone help!
I am seeing a full screen from top to bottom, but there are black areas to the left and right side of the picture. I have tried using 4:3 and 16:9, some times I get a full screen and other times I get the picture cut off.
Is your screen 4:3 or 16:9?
Is your source video 4:3 or 16:9?
What are the default clip properties you see when you add the clip into the program? (dimensions, aspect ratio)
My tv screen is I think 4:3. It is a 20 inch lcd. I am not sure if its 4:3 or 16:9. It is not a wide screen tv, or a high def. It is just a regular 20 inch.
The source video is 16:9 I think, its full screen after I record the game on it.
There are 5 to 6 choices for the defalut prperties, and I don't know which one to choose to get a full screen. I am really unsure about this. I have tried both 4:3 and 16:9. Sometimes I get a full screen, other times I don't?
OK, so your video file is 16:9, but what about the actual video content? If there are black bars on the left and right of the video, it sounds like the content is 4:3 but it's been encoded as 16:9. If your source video is 4:3 and your TV is 4:3, you should change the encoding setting to 4:3 in Need 4 Video.
Is there anyway you can post a screencap of your video before you put it into Authoring Works 4?
Hi, I've been using DVD Author 3 and now trial TAW4.
I have recorded .ts files (h.264, multi-audio-tracks). So I demux the tracks to the elementary streams (.264, ac3). When I'll open the .264 file i get an error, that the file coudn't be opened? (in DVD-Author 3 i can open .264 files!). So why i can't open these? The problem not using the .ts stream is a asynchron audio/video track. In the past it was the best (when will also cutting scenes), using elementary streams.
Any Help or Information for me available?
thanks for help a lot
cheers

Is there a preferred video format that is best suited for use in TMPGEnc Authoring Works 4, or a format it was specifically designed to work best with?
Thanks
I don't know why tmpgenc authoring works doesn't have an option for making a blu-ray with h.264. The only available format is mpeg-2. I hope that you are working on it; if not, then you are getting late.
In my opinion, the German translation of TMPGEnc Authoring Works 4 is not very successful. It would be nice if you could improve on that in the future or at least allow the user to activate the English version with the serial number he bought.
I have been searching for som4e time but found no answer:
Is TAW4 able to force subtitles - maybe in dependency to selected audio?
I have a movie in german language "filled up" with some deleted and never shown scenes in english. I want to show german subtitles on (only) these scenes automatically, regardless whether the user had selected subtitles or not.
At first I thought it wasn't possible to force subs, but I just found that it is indeed possible. You can force subs only per track and not per clip.
To do it, go to the Source stage and click on the "Settings" button for the track you'd like to force subs on. In the track settings window, for "Default subtitles stream", just select which sub stream you'd like to force.
Verify by going to the Simulation stage or using the track preview button.
It would be nice if TMPGEnc Authoring Works would not complain about the maximum bitrate of transport streams as long as they do not actually exceed the limit. It is common practice for tv stations to set the maximum bitrate to 15 mbps just to be on the safe side, while the stream never actually exceeds 5 - 7 mbps.
I imported a transport stream, but the video is completely distorted. Most of the frame is covered with huge green blocks. The sound plays fine. Since I have no trouble playing the clip with VLC Player or opening it with other applications, I guess the source file has to be all right. I rebuilt the stream with other tools and suddenly the problem was gone (while new trouble came up, unfortunately). Possibly TMPGEnc Authoring Works gets confused by some additional information in the original file that is discarded when rebuilding the stream?
I may add that the video stream is anamorphic. I hope this information helps, since I would love to buy your programmme as soon as this problem is fixed!
sound slike its apple related ie quicktime and itunes software.
so i would unistall both of those aswell as any codecs releated, clean the system and then rbeoot and reinstall NEW updates and if that doesnt do it, re install works 4
thanx for your reply.. i think it is the OS as i tried a demo version of nero media and that too shuts down too so i think it is my OS .. ohh well i didn't really want to format and put the stuff back on again.. but it looks like i dont have any other choice.. thanx for your replies :-)
