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?

Thanks
Confused

I have an mpeg2 video that receives the error message "can not open, or unsupported."

The file has a resolution of 352x480, aspect ration of 4:3, 29.97 fps and with no audio.

I do not understand why this file is not supported. I tried the original mpg which still had the audio and it doesnt work either.

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

Is it possible to export to segmented mpeg files like VirtualDub?
i.e. limit number of video frames per segment or file size to specific MB

Hi,

I want to convert large avi files to Mpeg1, with highest possible quality, for playing in my DVD player. I don't want a VCD or SVCD, simply Mpeg1 files, and size is not important.
If I use the Project Wizard, I'm limited to 352x288(PAL) low resolution files for VCD.
I'm quite lost among so many parameters in encoding and converting. Can someone tell me what parameters are important for better quality, and how should I set them?

Thanks in advance.

Hi folks,

I hate to sound dumb! But, I have downloaded the TMPGEnc 2.54 Freeware version ... WHERE Do I download the TMPGEnc Plus 2.5 version ... so I can do MPEG2 also???

Thanks,
G!

You can purchase TMPGEnc Plux 2.5 from the Pegasys website: http://tmpgenc.pegasys-inc.com/en/shopping/tp_d.html

hi tmpeg folks. i am trying to encode (with 2.5 free) a file asf in avi.
the format is composed by
audio: Windows Media Audio 9.1
48 kbps, 44 kHz, stereo (A/V) 1-pass CBR

video: Windows Media Video 9.

the video is converted in divx well but the audio is non existent. do i need a plug in or is it the format not compatible?
the file is 560 MB and i tried to convert in mpegI but it stopped when reached 500 MB converted. is the size a problem?

another question: why is it that the options for mp3 audio offer sample rate up to 24000hz only?

thanks for your patience

I had the usual problem with VBR audio, that the VCDs I burned using Nero were out of sync, with the audio way behind the video. So I read around and found the "extract audio into .wav" solution, and then used TMPGEnc to put them back together. The problem is, a file for which the video & audio are 40:41 comes out as 40:43, and the audio is now IN FRONT of the video.

Any ideas?

I used TMEG plus 2.5 to convert my AVI files. It seem to me that the color of the video pixelate like streaming of color. I don't know how to attach picture to this web. I tried to fix this so many times but it didn't work. The AVI file seem to be smoother with color.

Ok, here's the deal... Ill give an example to start out. I used to be able to encode a fairly high-quality DivX file (with 2.5) that would be about 2 hours, and it would take only about 2.5 hours total (converting to mpeg2 for dvd). Now I go to do it today with a few videos, and a 2-hour vid is taking about 4 hours. Any reason why this could be? I have no extra processes running, have used the exact same settings (even tried encoding at lower quality, but still slow), and I haven't changed any hardware or anything. I'm stumped! My guess is that I might need to defrag since I have been doing so much downloading, transfers, encoding, etc lately. I'll give that a shot, but does anyone have any other ideas why?

I am getting impatient! After many attempts to encode 110 minutes mpg VBR from a 22GB AVI huffyuv, I conclude that TMPEG is just not suited for the job. I've used this freeware program for years but the bugs are starting to annoy me. I know TMPEG can't join files without bugging them, but now it seems, it also can't encode files without bugging them.

I get several error messages when I open the encoded mpeg1 file in VirtualDub. Anachronistic timestamps indicates improper joining. But I haven't "joined" the file at all... Audio & Video was encoded in "one go" with VirtualDub frameserving.

I want an error free encoding, so I can be sure the file will play one any DVD hardware player.

Could you please direct me to another freeware program?
