I am trying to open an uncompressed AVI file that I made with Premiere 6.01, and it gives me the error

File "xxxxx" can not open, or unsupported.

I am able to open other uncompressed AVI files with the program, and the above file opens fine with any other program but this. Any ideas?

Did you edit the clip in Premiere?

did you get your avi through dv capture? or useing a dv codec?"Tmpgenc" is only compatable with certain types of dv.I think it only supports "open DML" and "video for windows" .I don"t do capture so I"m not keen on on the settings for it, but maybe someone elce knows,or maybe it isn"t a capture.....

I edited the file in Premiere and exported the timeline as an uncompressed movie. The compressor was listed as "Microsoft DV AVI (NTSC)". What is funnier is that if I open that exported movie in Adobe After Effects and save it with the same settings (uncompressed AVI), I can open it with tmpgenc. Any ideas?

when you export the timeline there is another avi option - something like MS AVI (note that it does NOT say "DV" in the title.

this is the format you need to use.

k guys,

When I watched my movie yesterday, the sound (48 khz) was great. I only had 2 little probs:

1) I used pal 4:3 625 lines >> The screen on TV was to heigh. How do i fix this??

2) after each =/- 5 sec. the film delayed a little. I used 25 bit/s. is that enough? how do I fix this one??

Thx it advance, greets scorp

I meant 25 fps instead of bit/s

You must have changed the output framerate from the original framerate.

Also if your movie is widescreen you need to chose 16:9 and 'full screen(keep aspect ratio' as your source setting.

PROCESSADORES AMD NO EXECUTABLE?

I dont know. I haven't ridden a bike in ages.

If you question is "does can TMPEnc run on a computer with an AMD Processor?", the question is yes. As long as it's fast enough.

It will be nice to have a minimize to tray option

I Totally agree with you 100%, it would be really nice to have a minimize to tray option

i am having problem with audio gradually going out of sync with video on a dvd-r backup. Everything goes great, ripping dvd to hd, run dvd2avi, then tmpgenc plus for dvd ntsc template 4000 cbr, and authoring/burning with ulead movie factory. the audio looks to be in sync at beginning of dvd-r playback on standalone dvd player but goes out of sync as the movie progresses. looks like audio gets behind about two seconds with the video. Can anyone help me with this?

Sounds like you might have made your mpeg file with a different frame rate than the avi,but if that isn"t the case then see if your audio track is longer than your video,if it is you can use a audio editing program like "cool edit" to speed up the sound track so that it matches up with the video track ,and if your video is longer you can slow down the sound track to get it to sync up with the video, it is a tricky procedure but I have done it before.......

Hi,
This is my second posting.

I have Sony P4 1.7 Ghz, 512Mb RAM, XP HE, etc.

Recently, I can not import the mpeg2 done by TMPGenc into DVDit! SE v. 2.52 Ligos. I get error message "Could not find a suitable decoder".
I have the same TMPGenc settings for the past 3-4 releases (PAL, 60min, VBR, encode mode - Interlaced, DC component 10, motion prec. - Highest quality, etc.) I never ever touched GOPs.

Initially, I thougth that encoding bit rate is to high, decreased to the 6000b/sec but still got the same problem. I tried all here proposed solutions but none of them worked. I went to Sonic DVDit! forum, tried all proposed solution there - nothing worked.

Then I talked to DVDit! helpdesk - got private number from one of the guys. They tried something remotely but it did not worked.
Then, they asked me for the sample mpeg2 - not bigger then 4Mb. Amazingly, what ever file I create by TMPGenc up to the 4Mb (approx. 7 sec of movie) DVDit! process it without any problems. Even if I cut "bad" mpeg2 file to get small file - everything works fine.

But I do not want that crazy to cut all my movies in the portions of 5-7 sec.
Then I tried to upload TMPGenc mpeg2 files done 2 months ago (with the same settings) into DVDit! - no problem.

I propsed sending bigger "bad" mpeg2 file to Sonic via FTP so that they can see what's going on - but nobody answered so far.


The only thing that come son my mind is that Microsoft made recently XP "fix" for mpeg encoding - I upgrade my system and ever since then I fail with DVDit!

The worst is tha Sonic charges per incident US$29.95 but they should provide fix. I have no problems paying that amount - ALL I NEED IS fix. I do NOT want to get rid of TMPG cause I think it is great tool - better to scrap DVDit.

Does anyone has idea what should I do.

Thanks

I have "dvdit pe 2.5" and I have problems getting about half of my mpeg files in to "dvdit" so I switched to "ulead dvd movie workshop" and it seems to accept any mpeg I throw at it,and it has most of the same features,give it a try if you can"t find another solution,you can e-mail me and I might be able to hook you up with a copy.....

I manage to get the "correct" TMPG settings from SONIC DVDit! team. I do not know what is really difference but I solve the issue. SONIC promised to see what was wrong with those TMPGenc settings by examining the "bad" file I sent. As soon as I know something I let you know.

SONIC also could no process my file created with my "ld" standard TMPG settings.

Anyway, if somebody need those SONIC TMPGenc DVD mpeg2 settings let me know and I can mail it or ftp-it.

hi

when i run virtualdub of nandub
for a movie from avi to vcd with tmpge

then when i make with nandub the file plop.vdr
is ok but then i must open the file in tmpge

then say can not open it or incorrupted

only under in98sec not under win 2000

what must do for under win 98 se


please

the mpeg2 trial has expired, how do i register this or atleast get it to work again,

regards frank

click the banner at the bottom of this page, then you will know how to
purchase it.

The latest version of TMPGEnc, 2.54a has information how to do it, but
I guess what you are using is 2.53 or before.

Or, you can visit "Contact" page, but do not send E-mail to author, you just need to read the test there.

download the 2.54 version, or the 2.54a.....

Hy there,

what do I do wrong ? I add an 10 sec trailer to an 45min mpg movie, they both have the same format, but the file grows with about 4MB, and even when i try to put it on cd ot is grown with more than 50MB. Could somebodey explain, and give me seome advise.

TNX

maybe dont join the trailer just burn it as the first track on the cd then your movie as the second track,they seem to join up pretty good when useing "nero"..at the begining of all my svcd"s I put a 20 second animated trailer that I made ,at the begining of each movie and I just burn it as another track and seems to work fine accept there is a 5 second pause on the last frame of the trailer before the movie starts but it still looks good...

Go ahead and try Minions way.
To remove the pause just right click the file after you have dragged it into the window and change the pause settings to 0 and set the record mode to disk at once.
This will give you a fluent movie which plays smoothly without pauses or gaps.

Is there a way of taking multiple avi's and convering to one mpeg?

No ,but you can join them all in to one mpeg with the "merge&cut" feature....

Now I'm frustrated... Managed to fix the PoPackage.dll errors... But now, I get an Application error still at 22% that stopped everything and kicked me out entirely out of the program!!!

Exception Eaccess Violation in module NTdll.dll at 00003207.
Write error occured at address 77F43207 of module `NTdll.dll` with 00000000

Ouffff!!! Is converting and burning CDs always like this?????

I might be new, but I didn't think I was that stupid.

Can someone PLEASE help me??

When you request help can you give a bit more information? Like what operating system your using I see NT dll is it NT,2000 or XP your using? What version of Tmpgenc you running? What task you trying to do?(ie.Make a MPG1(VCD) from AVI.etc.) Could you acomplish this task before you installed the latest version of Tmpgenc or ever for that matter? Any way it sounds like software is not getting along well with another software or maybe it could be settings or then again you could be trying to convert a format Tmpgenc isnt designed for Or maybe your source file has errors in it and when Tmpgenc encounters them it is forced to close. Well let us know some more info k? I am running the following with Zero errors Windows XP PRO(Solid OS I love it) 256MB 266MhzDDR, 1.33Gighz AMD Thunderbird, Pioneer DVD-116, Yamaha 16-10-40Cdrw, Divx4.12(5 sucks to much political BS and marketing hassle), Tmpgenc 2.54a(awsome), Power DVD, AVI2DVD, VCD easy(Sweet), DVDDecrypter 30017 and total recorder for those stuborn WMV conversions where you need to seperate the video and sound to be able to convert to a new format. I have no problems converting to Mpg1,Mpg2,AVI(Divx4.12+128K mp3) formats or creating VCD or SVCD's. To convert a whole DVD To MPG or DIVX it only takes 2.5 to 3.5 hours dependeing on movie length. :o) Speeds have vastly improved with version 2.54a of Tmpgenc Rocks!! Good Job TsunamiMPGenc Author keep up the good work!!

I downloaded and installed Tmpgenc 2.54a. I never used any conversion programs before so I could'nt tell you if it worked before :( I'm trying to convert a Avi to Mpeg movie. When looking at the movie on my computer the quality is fantastic. I would really appreciate if someone could offer some direction and assistance

The following are my computer specifications

Microsoft Windows XP
Family Edition
Version 2002

Compaq 5000 Series
Pentium 4 CPU 1500MHZ

256 Mo of Ram

Newton can you PLEASE write in separate paragraphs and sentences.

I'm quite accomplished at encoding and even I find your explanations difficult to understand.

After halfway of reading I gave up 'cos it was giving me a headache trying to focus my eyes on the words.

Thanx

ASHY

To answer your question, this usually refers to a location in memory and TMPGenc for some reason couldn't write to that address in memory.

This could be because you have some background programs running which won't relinquish this part of memory.
Unload any antivirus programs or memory optimizer programs or indeed any programs which run in the background.

Also disable any BIOS or Graphics card shadowing options in your bios.

If you still get the error then it's likely you could have corrupt memory installed and need to change it.
Maybe try to borrow some of somebody or if you have more than one module installed remove one and try it again.

Right I have a bad habbit of rambling on with out proper sentence structure. Sorry will try to post a bit more structure in the future. v/r NewtronX

Any way you suggest it could be another program causing a memory collision? Well personnally I think its more than likely software settings in Tmpgenc.
Normally windows if it has problems with a program it tells on that application . "Norton Anit-virus caused a Exception Eaccess Violation in module NTdll.dll at 00003207." But since he didnt mention another programs name my guess is its Tmpgenc setting or the file it self caused the fault in the NTdll.dll.
I agree as to memory access error as it plainly shows an address write. "Write error occured at address 77F43207" But those can be caused by inproper settings or file types that Tmpgenc cant handle. Their is a chance that the memory might cause these errors but my experience says that if he doesnt experience errors with other programs for memory then its unlikly to be memory. I have put many computer together and have experienced only a few bad sticks usually when memmory goes south every thing starts getting screwy..
I realize my article was a bit confusing and I was getting tired laast night so my apologize.:o) I noticed it last night thats why I through in those hyperlinks to a few guides.

This is the most important thing from my response.
See if tmpgenc setting are correct. Go to Options>Enviromental settings and ensure DirectShow multimedia file reader is second from the top at least that its higher than any other AVI option. You can change this by right clicking the option and selecting higher a few times if needed.

If this doesnt fix it you may have to seperat the Audio and video first then rencode them together.

Also take a look at these links http://nickyguides.digital-digest.com/AVItoVCD.htm http://www.divx-digest.com/articles/avi2mpeg1.html

I agree it is quite likely a software problem.

I also have much experience building PC's. Infact I have a qualifiction I gained from a course at college for it, also two qualifications regarding operating systems. So I do have some knowledge behind my answers.

The only reason I suggested the memory problem is because I remember another post someone from someone who was having EXACTLY the same problem and no matter what he tried the error remained and ONLY got the error when encoding.

The problem was sorted instantly when out of the blue he just replaced the memory. This is why I'm suggesting borrowing or taking one out if he has two and swapping them over to see what effect it has.

I know for a fact that shadowing in the BIOS can cause this problem and so can other software which hasn't been coded properly and can cause improper memory handling. Windows won't necessarily show the software thats causing it in the report.

The suggestions are simply to exonerate the obvious to see what effect it has.

The first thing I would do is to shut down any other programs because I know from experience this happens.

Encoding is very intensive work for a PC and thus uses and needs all it's resources to accomplish the task. This is why memory errors or hardisk errors or whatever may only surface when the PC is 'pushed' to it's limit.

Other software may never create the same errors as they are no where near as intesive or resource gobbling as encoding.

Having said this if all software problems are exonerated then all that can be left is a hardware problem. Simple as that.

But like you say the first thought is software, so I would suggest a few things such as.
Download TMPG again or another version.

Install new motherboard drivers.

After all other settings have been tried and other software exonerated then do a system reinstall.

If all else fails check hardware.

Is there a way to remove the scrolls at the end of a movie once it has been converted to Mpeg and before it is burned on CD. There is about 4 or 5 minutes at the end I would like to remove. It might give me a chance to fit it all on 1 cd if its possible

Thanks
Drareg

Do you mean you just want to cut a piece of the end?If thats what you want to do then you just go under"file" to "mpeg tools" then to "merge&cut" and load in your file then choose your output directory then click "edit" and there you choose were you want to cut it......make sure you choose the right format at the top of the screen or you will have the wrong header on your file and it wont play.....
