I have a load of avi files I am trying to convert to mpg. All the other types of file have been fine. Extracted the wav with virtual dub and then used tmpgenc to convert to mpg.
But I have 3 which seem to be encoded differently, as "xvid-tcm". I couldnt get virtual dub to work with these files at all despite installing appropriate codecs for direct show and vfw.......it just didnt like the audio. Eventually I gave up and found another program that would extract the wav from these files.
Now, however, I cant get TMPGEnc to work with them either. I am getting no error messages but the output is a mixture of just all black or green blocks. Seems like this is the kind of thing that would happen if didnt have required codecs, but the avi plays fine and also used GSpot to identify there are 3 appropriate video and 4 audio codecs installed.
The audio problem can ba solver by settting in VirtualDub Audio___Direct Stream Copy and de/compressing the 'fake WAV' file you made with BeSweet to 'MP2 for SVCD'.
The video problem is more serious. I cannot imagine how to solve it.
My problem is that when i'm converting my AVI file to MPG I loose my audio. ( I've read som threads here already, so I see that you are confused over why people even wants to do this. )
My excuse for doing this, is that I want to make my subtitles permanent on the file. So I can burn them on a DVD with subtitles.
I manage to get my subtitles on the right place. But, as I wrote erlier I loose my audio when I do this.
While converting videos realised with Premiere 6.5 (acquired with Matrox RT.x10) TMPEG 2.5 begins the conversion ...and then, almost "randomly", the program exits with no reason.
I tried disabling SSE and SSE2 cpu intructions, and even the floating poin in the Matrix is disabled, but nothing to do: the piece of file that is converted is perfect, but the conversione nere arrives at 100% of the file length.
Maybe a codec problem... but not sure; does anybody can help me, please?

I answer for myself since - trying and trying - I found the "bug".
The solution is in the nVidia chipset "nTune" utility: it effectively encreases performances, but causes small problems with intensive fpu utilizaion.
So it's enough to delete the "performance selection" directly from the rin service of the registry (regedit.exe ...etc).
Reboot and the problem is solved and locked.

I have an MPEG of a song consisting of audio and video in a single MPEG that I took from a VCD. I need to split off the audio by itself and burn it to a CD. I can't figure out how to seperate the audio from the video. Could some kind person give me a tutorial as I'm extremely inexperienced with this program. Thanks. MS
Open the MPEGtools in TMPG and then load your file into the 'Simple de-multiplexer'
Delete the video part from the video box then run it and you'll end up with just an audio file.
If the file is MP2 then you can't burn it to disk. You will need to either convert it to wav first or convert it to MP3.
TMPG can do this, but the procedure is different to the above if you want to do it.
No audio even though it is mp3 audio.
I keep trying to prepare an avi for DVD but tmpg is not picking up the audio. The audio is mp3 according to AVIcodec, but I still get no sound.
TMPGenc often cannot tackle with some type of compress ausio.
Read http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/129217, extract the audio as an Uncompressed WAV and load it or convert it to .MP2 with BeSweet (+ its GUI)
When I convert a .vob file in TMPGEnc, it only converts about the first 13 seconds of about a 2 minute file. I think it only converts until I pressed the stop recording button on my camcorder. I use a sony camcorder that records directly to minidisk. Does anyone know why tMPGEnc stops converting, or, better yet, how I can keep it converting until it converts the entire .vob file?
First of all if you want to convert your VOBs to MPEGs then simply run the VOB through the simple multiplexer in TMPG and select 'MPEG2 Program VBR' as the 'Type'
If neither work then to convert your VOB audio to a usuable format use Virtualdubmod to extract the audio to a WAV.
You can also use DVD2AVI to create a WAV from your VOB.
a 1000 times I used befor the mussing funktion of tmpgenc plus without any problems.
Now I have the following problem: I want to mux an mpeg-2 video file (an original stream file from digital TV) and an ac3-audio file (I streamed video and audio seperately because that's the only way for me to get the ac3-audio, if different audio-streams exist)
With the funktion "simple multiplex" it say "illegal mpg video/audio stream"
with the funktion "multiplex" tmpgenc does nothing without any notice but the list of stream stay empty.
I don't understand this. The files are correct! the ac3file I can play with the WMP.
I made the many times before with the same kind of streams. Why this doesn't work????
can anybody help, please !
Try loading one at a time into the multiplexer, not the simple multiplexer and see if TMPG can read the headers of the files.
If it can't read the headers of one of the files then there is your problem.
However if it can display the header info of the files then try running just one or the other of the files through the multiplexer to see which one gets rejected.
I am running vob files through TMPGEnc without any problem unless the file contains chapters. Then TM processes only the first chapter and ignores the rest.
Im sure there is a simple solution but I cannot find it.
The simple solution is 'DO NOT' run VOB files through TMPG.
VOB files are NOT simple MPEGs. They contain other components that could affect the encoding.
For instance you cannot select the required audio track with TMPG.
The tried, tested and best way to encode VOBs is to use DVD2AVI as frame sever.
Simply open the VOBs with DVD2AVI, select the required options, audio track e.t.c. and then create a project file.
After a few minutes you will have a compatible file to load into TMPG.
I'm trying to convert an AVI to MPEG, so i can put it onto dvd, but when i load the avi, TMPGENC fails on me. I can play the file in a media player, such as windows media, and divx, but why is it failing when i try to load it? I've reinstalled all my codecs, and have restarted me PC many times, anyone know what i can do to get it to work?! Thanks in advance.
Nope. And what happens if you open the video with VirtualDub and, just for tamporary file, you compress it with Xvid codec set at maximum quality (AS @ L5 and maximum quality)?
