I was wondering..
how do I add subtitles to vcd/svcd..?
do they even support it or is it just dvd thing?

Thanx,

grabbag

I don't think u can add subtitles in TMPGENC.

There maybe 3rd part software.

Techno

You need virtual dub with vobsub plugin. this proggy runs along side tmpg whilst encoding and adds the subtitles. It's also freeware as well :-)

when i tryed to make a avi to an mpeg1 there stands "an error occurred when audio was decoded", whats the problem and what should i do???????????? please help

"I have been struggling over the past couple of weeks with the "no sound" problem when converting from .avi to .mpg. It is possible that for some reason my problems began after upgrading to TMPGEnc 2.53.35.130.

I was able to solve the problem by going to Option/Environmental Setting... and clicking on the VFAPI plug-in tab. I suspected that multiple plug-ins for .avi support was the culprit. In my case, I had the AVI2(OpenDML) File Reader (checked, priority=0) and AVI VFW compatibility reader (checked, priority=-2). All I had to do was uncheck the AVI2(OpenDML) File Reader and the conversion went fine with audio.

I'm sure that there may be cases where I need to check the AVI2(OpenDML) File Reader, but for most of my current encoding purposes, this change seems to correct my problems."


I had the same error message you got then I tried what Bob suggested and it worked.

Thanks Bob!

When I try to load an SVCD using the wizard I get an error message cannot load or unsupported

is it possible to encode faster?
say i download oceans eleven cd1 avi then put it through this program to transfer it to mpeg1 for a vcd. It is taking 4 hours for 50mins of film.
Is this normal?
cheers

Yes, it is normal. The faster your system, the faster the encoding, usually, will be. It also depends if u have used any filters, this will take a while longer

Techno

cheers mate

I was trying to open a file to encode, even the sample file, but I get a Windows memory "read" error and the program closes out. Any suggestions?

Well, i want to encode a movie but i always get after few minutes a message that aborts the encoding telling me about something related to the floating point. The problem is that i have encode other file and it works but only this one is giving me trouble, does it related to VFAPI or something like that because the file is perfect and i have use it before to create a vcd but i want to improve it. What is causing this error message.

Basically, uncheck/check all the boxes in the quantize matrix settings.

Techno

You cannot uncheck all the boxes. The one for decimal calculation is always on. I am having the same problem by the way/

I've been having this problem since I installed the QTReader.vfp file. If I delete it, everything works fine.

I also was haveing the Floatin decimal point error encoding divx movies..I tried everything..Tried Unchecking boxes and checking boxes,Removing quick time files and also ran it through Virtual Dub framescan..Nothing works!!! The newest version of TMPGenc sux!!!..I finally got online last night and searched and downloaded the older beta version TMPGenc 12j...And all problems were solved..Good Luck..and if you find a fix for the newest version please post it!!

Check out http://screw.wz.cz/test/downloads.htm and go to the utils section.
I use avidefreezer (the site has a guide too) to get round this sort of problem.

I tried Olli's method and it worked. Downgrading to a previous version of TMPGenc did not. 8 hours later, and I think this video is finally going to be on a CD.

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am using DVCII for video capturing. I have converted DVD(MPEG2) Captured

file to VCD format (video @ 352x288, PAL, 25fps, 1150 kbps, audio @ 44100

Hz/sec , 2240 kbps, Stereo)using Tmpgenc 2.0 . The converted files plays very

well in Windows media player with audio. But when I Try to burn the converted

file using Nero 5.5 it gives it is unsupported format ( i.e it says the audio

stream is 2 channel instead of stereo), when the VCD is burned switching off

the standart vcd format in Nero. The Resultant VCD has no audio.

Please help ? what happened to the audio , Is any settings wrong, If so provide

the correct settings

B.Venkatesh ( venky609@hotmail.com)

Make sure the audio IS MPEG1 layer II 44100Hz and 224KBPS

Techno

Thanky Mr Techno. You are correct , but instead of that I used Tmpgenc 2.5 the latest one , using wizard vcd(pal) the problem got corrected. Any way thankyou for your response !!!!!!!!

Ok here's my problem: I've installed WinDVD and Nimo Codec Pack 4.4.
In WinDVD i am able to view MPG2 files. But Windows Media Player and
TMPGEnc won't recognize them. In WMP the following error occurs:
"Class isn't registered"
I tried many different mpeg2 codecs and dvd players... always the
same problems.
There's only one Codec that works: Elecard Mpeg2 Codec.
But i don't want the Elecard symbol in the upper right corner of
my movies. A big Thank goes to Techno. He tried to help me but without
success. Perhaps anyone else can help me ?

Thanx
Dirk

Did you remove the Elecard crap before you tried to install the other codecs.
If you don't remove the Elecard codec first the others won't register.
Remove any other MPEG2 codecs first too (there is usually an Unregister.bat file with the codec you installed). Also uninstall any software DVD players you have installed then reboot your machine and re-install WINDVD.
This should allow you too open Mpeg2 files in media player.
If you need an MPEG2 codec for TMPG then go here:
http://www.vcdhelp.com/download/m2v_vfp-0.4.6.zip

Just extract the files and place them in your TMPGenc folder.

Yes, he has removed it.

What to do is to make sure that the DVDaudio.ax and DVDVideo.ex are registered in the registry, if not, email me so I can make a program which will do it for you.

Thanks

Techno

If those filters you mention are the FreeDVD filters then these filters will not work for SVCD MPEG2.
These filters are for decoding Mpeg2 and AC3 encrypted video and audio only.
Stinkys Mpeg2 codec will work but wont give correct aspect ratio in windows media player.
In anycase why the need to play MPEG2 through media player when you have WinDVD?

No, they are NOT freeDVD filters ashly

I am trying to encode a Quicktime .mov file into VCD format, but it freezes up at 6% each time i do it. The file that is made plays the first 6% fine, but i am wondering how to get it to finish the entire video. I am wondering if it is a problem with my VFAPI plugin, if i should get a better one, or what. I have tried two plugins, both giving the exact same result, but they might be the same file with different names. Please help!

Trent

Download the Quicktime plugin

www.vcdhelp.com

Techno

that is the one i was using, QTReader.vfp, and i also tried another one i found on a french website called qt.vfp. Both gave the same result.

hmmmm, What OS u running?

Techno

Win 98 on PIII 866 with 128 megs of RAM, all other encoding works fine.

I have the same problem...but only when using Very High Quality. I would also like to know why this is happening.
Thanks,
John Reda

Hi,

i've recently captured a mpeg-1 video with 29.97 fps and i wanted to change its audio channel from stereo into mono. so i De-multiplexed the mpeg file using TMPGEnc. it was a 29 mins mpeg but the De-multiplexed video stream is now 24 mins! which means the video is faster than the original. any comments?

I want to know how to rip region 0 anime DVDs that have both dubed and subtitled dialogue. I want the japanese voice and the subtitles in the resulting VCD compliant files. Is this even possible?

I cant remeber at the moment if its possible with non SVCD's but have a look at
