Hi, kind of a weird error this time as Ive never had it before.

I have 2 mpeg files that Id like to merge&cut together into 1. Both files work fine in Windows Media Player (or any other player for that matter) but when I go to edit the length of the files (in merge&cut) I only get audio when I move the slider across. There is no image at all eventhough it plays fine in WMP (and was fine when I initially converted the 2 files in TMPGenc).

As Im not seeing any visual but am hearing audio, Im guessing that it may be a codec problem but then why did it play fine during the initial encoding and why do they both play fine in WMP?

Any help is appreciated and if you need anymore info then please ask. Cheers :)

Maybe you need a MPEG2-Decoder like m2v.vfp (http://www.marumo.ne.jp/mpeg2/m2v_vfp-0.6.51.lzh)

Downloaded the decoder (just to make sure I didnt have it) and still nothing. The Merge&Cut window still stays blank whilst the audio plays along fine.

Thanks anyway B_Racer :)

To anybody that can help.

I have TMPGEnc Plus 2.5 / Free version, and am tryign to cut a file in two. but everytime i go to complete the seperation the second half of the avi that i am trying to cut doesn't complete itself. the length of the avi is 2 hours 13 minutes. and the size of the file is 1.3 gigs, so i want to get it splint and on a disc, but the second half only wants to produce approximately 20 minutes, and not the 1 hours and 5 minutes that i want it to produce, can anyone help me with this problem?

Use VirtualDub instead of TMPGEnc which is a MPEG-ENCODER!

What do you mean 'cut'? TMPG wouldn't even allow you to cut an AVI at all as it would see it as an illegal MPEG.

Please explain what you mean properly instead of confusing people.

hello!

I am using Windows Xp(w/ srv. pk 2), Tmpgenc 2.5+, and this guide: http://www.videohelp.com/forum/userguides/153058.php
To join subtitles to a divx movie(divx 4.5 was used -*i think)

Problem being...
When i goto "start" Tmpgenc is freezes. I have followed the directions to the "T" but no luck...

Any help would be EXTREMELY and FOREVER appreciated!
thanks sooo much!

I had this problem until I installed "service pack 1".

>I have followed the directions to the "T" but no luck...

What does that phrase mean?
I thought it went 'I have followed the directions to the "letter" but no luck...'

Well it not really a bug, just a tiny grammar mistake:
Is: Option > Task Priority > When actif - Normal Priority.
Should be: Option > Task Priority > When active - Normal Priority.

You noticed that too, eh?

Hi,

I try to convert the 640x360 (16:9) Xvid AVI to mpeg using the TMPGEnc Plus 2.5, but everytime I convert it change to 4:3 ? No matter what I've set in the Expert Setting for Source!!!

Please help!!

Well, the ouput will still be 4:3 if you are only changing the source settings.
You need to alter the output aspect ratio to 16:9 under the 'Video' tab

To anyone who can help.... My computer crashed and we had to reinstall Windows XP. Unfortunately, we lost everything and of course I didn't back anything up(lesson Learned!). I'm trying to find out how to reinstall TMPGEnc Plus 2.5 (purchased last year) but I don't know how to do that and of course I don't have my original registration code. Does anyone know whre I can go to get this information? I've looked everywhere in the Pegasys website and the TMPGEnc website. I realy don't want to have to buy it again.
Thanks to all who can help.

Just simply re-download the TMPG zip file again and unzip it to your drive to install it. You will need to contact pegasys to explain your situation and they may re-send your code.

I agree. The serial was in windows registry, HKEY CURENT USERSoftwarePegasys Inc. TMPGenc Plus2.5.
I really hope you got it correcly, ot Pegasys won't re-send you it again...

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.
http://unserboard.free.fr/dv/settings-movie.png

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

robert

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,
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.
http://www.digital-digest.com/dvd/downloads/showsoftware_ac3towav_28.html

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.

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.
