TMPGEnc 2.5 (Free or plus version) BBS [ Sorted by thread creation date ]
hello all, have a big problem i hope you can help me with.
I have xvid avi. I have no problems loading it however the file size goes up 3 times. I have read that you need to increase the directshow filter. I did that and it corrected the problem of the file size.
Now i have a problem that the final result is jittery. So i went back and reset the enviroment and the result was a long file that was not jummpy. It seems that when the directshow filter is raised to 1 then TMPengc wants to change it from a film to video.
This is driving me crazy! Right now either i get a long file that is unusable or a jumpy one. Can you please help!
I process large batches at night using TMPGEnc Plus 2.521. Sometimes these batches fail during the night. I need the encode log to be emailed to me everytime it saves the encode log to file automatically. Other programs have this feature but it doesn't appear to be in Tsunami. That leaves me with the option to learn Windows scripting to try and auto-generate emails or paying someone for their programming expertise. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!
What I have read thus far on the problem of extracting VBR audio from AVI, converting that audio, recombining it with the video, and burning a working DVD that will actually play in a DVD player and display on my TV, is very vague at best.
Can someone direct me to a comprehensive howto manual?
I have just applied TPMGEnc (using Merge & Cut)to join two 5GB VOB files (from home movie DVDs)and convert them to MPEG-2. The result? Video works ok, but no sound. Is there something else I should have done? Can anybody advise me on the correct settings? Many thanks.
You've not done anything wrong, but the .vob files probably have Dolby Digital AC3 audio in them. If so TMPGEnc won't work as it doesn't support that audio codec. Use DeMultiplex feature to see the audio codec.
Reply back with the audio codec and I'll tell you what to do.
P.S. How did you extract the VOB files from the DVD?
You don't need ffdshow. All you need is TMPGEnc to convert an AVI film to MPEG2
The quality of the finished product will depend entirely upon the quality of the original AVI film.
You probably have a weird video codec that only Windows Media Player can understand. Use the program from http://avicodec.duby.info/ to find out the codecs and post them here. I'll try and help.
Hi! I've converted anime AVI to MPEG and everything looks fine when I preview everything but once I burn into VCD and play on the tv, the subtitles are cut off at the bottom of the screen. I only see the tops of the letters. I've used 1:1 (VGA) with Full Screen and also 4:3 with Full Screen. What am I doing wrong?
Be careful to check the size of the VDO. It depends on TV standard. For NTSC or FILM VCD you need 352x240 for PAL it's 352x288. So if you've made a PAL disc and are playing it back on an NTSC player/TV you lose some of the screen.
Hi there,
I am working with the trial version and have imported an uncompressed AVI video file and a WAV audio file. When i tell it to encode it comes up with the error message AN ERROR OCCURRED WHEN ACN WAS INITIALSIED. Any clues as to what this means?
Transfering AVI files to put on DVD, worked fine with free TMPGEnc, which has no expired so I have had to get TMPGEnc plus.
With the free version all I had to do was open the avi as the video source and it auto loaded the audio source, the same file. However with plus this does not work and when I try and load the audio source it says it will not open or if unsported.
I have the same problem! i select the avi file for the video but the audio line stays blank. if i manually choose the avi file for audio, it says it is unsupported. i'm guessing it's a version of avi (xvid, etc) that tmpeg does not support...??
1.) Run VirtualDub, click on "File", select "Open video file", and choose your AVI file.
2.) Click on "Audio and select "Full Processing"
3.) Click on "File" and select "Save Wave"
4.) Use this wav file as your "Audio Source" when encoding your AVI file using TMPGEnc Plus
An alternative is to:
1.) Convert the AVI file to a M2V file (no audio)using TMPGEnc Plus
2.) Convert the wav file to a MP2 file
3.) Multiplex the two files together making a MPG file.
To Convert the AVI file to a M2V file:
1.) Open TMPGEnc Plus
2.) Click on "Load" and select a DVD template
3.) Choose your AVI file as the "Video Source"
4.) Click on "Start"
You can convert the wav file to a MP2 file using dBpowerAMP Music Converter.
You can find the latest version of dBpowerAMP Music Converter for free at: http://www.dbpoweramp.com/bin/dMC-r11.5.exe
To convert the WAV file to a MP2 file:
1.) Open dBpowerAMP Music Converter
2.) Open your WAV file (from VirtualDub)
3.) Choose Mp2
4.) Select Frequency 4800 and Bitrate 384kbps and click on "Convert"
To multiplex the video and uadio together into a MPG file:
1.) Open TMPGEnc Plus
2.) Click on "File" and choose "MPEG Tools"
3.) Choose "MPEG-2 Program VBR" and brouse for your video input (M2V) and your audio input (MP2)
4.) Click on "Run" and it will multiplex the two files into one DVD compliant MPG file
When using the new version of TMPGEnc the resulting mpg file comes out too small (it doesn't fit the screen). The old version didn't do this. When I ply the VCD created from the mpg that used TMPGEnc 2.5 the video gets blown up to fit the screen making it blurry. How do I create a mpg that starts out bigger? If I try to make a 640 x 480 video using the Advanced tab the video just goes outside the working area. Help!
I am trying to join 2 mpeg2 VBR files. I used MPEG Tools and it created the joined file but didn't take any audio from the second file. Did I miss something??
I have this "problem"/bug too. And I know audio is the samekind, because those all are ripped from the same dvd. And it always looses the audio, but I've just lived with it. (But because there is no "save project" option, I think I'm not going to edit those videos again, even that bug would be fixed.)
