Question - Read Error in Mpeg Tools No.18460
drisley  2002-04-09 07:46:45 ( ID:ydlbwkwvpxw )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

In all the versions of Tmpgenc that ive used, when i try to use the the "Merge and Cut" tool, i have a problem...
If i click on an mpg in the list and edit the start and end points, when i come out of it, i get a "At address 73f91D04,Read error occurred against address 73f91D04".
I can continue on without problems, but whenever i go into an mpg to edit the strat and end points, i am greeted with the above message when i exit.
Any ideas?

I use Winxp PRo (but i beleive this happened on Win2000 as well).

And on Windows ME. Same prob as I and many others. Never affects the file, so it's probably just a bug. Just ignore it.

Hi,

What's wrong with my VCD making when I get only the voice but not the picture at all?

I've done everything by the manual: starting with the virtual dub, encoding with TMPGEnc and burning with VCDEasy or NERO. I don't see the picture of the movie in the virtual dub, but I don't see it in TMPGEnc either. When I start to watch the original (avi, divX) movie file with media player it works beautifully, but in the TMPGEnc (v. 2.53) I only here the voice...

WHAT'S WRONG???


Techno  Home )  2002-04-09 10:16:48 ( ID:82zqdopxre6 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

TMPGENC is NOT compatable with DIVX v5.

uninstall DIVX v5, install DIVX v4.11 or 4.12

encode and all should be well.

What are you encoding? MPEG2 files? Do you have elecard codec installed? Is this the white box appearing? if so, it is the elecard codec.

I received this error when trying to merge two .m2v files.
Error Not Enough Memory
Windows Out Of Memory
Your sytem is low on memory. To insure that windows runs properly, increase the size
of your virtual memory pageing file. For more information see help.

The files sizes I was trying to merge were:
1.)movie_1.m2v = 3.45gig and
2.)movie_2.m2v =4.49gig.
My windows 2000 Virtual memory paging file size is :
384mb initial size and 4095mb maximum size.
Total paging file size for all drives:

Im not sure but I think there is a 4gb limit on file sizes within the windows platform,all windows systems work on the fat32 system which has a max file size of 4gb.....this could be your problem...........

Try converting your file system to NTFS.

Techno


Ashy  2002-04-09 13:28:46 ( ID:4adzcnohuc. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

The 4gb file limit is only imposed on Windows 9x and Me systems.
Windows NT 2000 and XP practically have unlimited file sizes within the limits of the file system of course.

It seems your problem is probably your swapfile isn't big enough to handle the job your trying to do.
There is a limit for swapfiles which is 4095mb.
The way around it is to create another swapfile on another partition of maximum size.
Windows will then use both swapfiles and effectively gives you a total swapfile size of 8190mb. This should be enough.

If you don't have another partition then I suggest you create one with partition magic or other software as this will not only make things easier but will also increase the performance of your system.

If you don't want to do either of this there is a way to create multiple swapfiles on one drive but involves some registry editing and isn't really advisable when you have the other options at hand.

ASHY:

in Windows NT, 2000 and XP, you have 2 choices:

FAT32 or NTFS.

I think he has chosen FAT32.

He can convert to NTFS without having to format the hdd.

Thank you all for helping me out....sorry I forgot to add and this I should had I already have a NTFS file sytem going because I ran into the 4 gig error in WIN9X so I did a duel boot system with WIn2K and did a NFTS fdisk/format....I beleive that it is my swap size and I will create another partition like sugested and specify it for swap size , but how do I do that....I nkow how to use partition magic so all I need to know is how to specify the new swap. I have another HD in the system and I think I allredy specified it as an additional swap, and if I did it the way suggested the result is still not the answer because it still does not work.


Ashy  2002-04-09 17:37:38 ( ID:n3gjkhi6dvc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Techno,
Iam well aware of the choice NT 2000 and XP give as file systems, but the point is that the error that windows was giving to the gentleman is that there isn't enough virtual memory and no amount of changing to another file system such as NTFS will change the swapfile size barrier.
It will still be 4095mb and the only way around it is to do as I suggested. I didn't even mention about formating the hard drive, so where that came from I don't know.

To access the Virtual Memory property sheet, open System Properties from the Control Panel. Then follow these steps:

Click Advanced

Click Performance Options

Click Change

Then you should see a list of your drives. Click on each one then change the maximum size to 4095 and click set for each one.

I can only give advice and help on the information I was supplied with and to my knowledge this is the remedy to the problem for the error which windows is creating.
If it doesn't work. I'm all out of ideas.

Hope it does.

Bug report - QuickTime source causes TMPGEnc to quit No.18445
JamesCMurty  Home )  2002-04-09 01:38:33 ( ID:waufv9in1oa )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I'm trying to encode QuickTime DV streams to MPEG2 with TMPGEnc Plus (just registered yesterday in the hope that it would make my problem go away). Anyway these files are between 10 and 50 minutes in length and range from around 2Gb to 12Gb. I've also tried transcoding them to PhotoJPG first before running them through TMPGEnc with no further success.
The problem is that TMPGEnc quits around 300 frames into the encode. The machine appears to be thrashing then it just quits without warning.
I've got the QTReader.vfp plugin, I can see the vision progressing quite rapidly until it gets to around the 280-300 frame mark, then it finally slows down and quits.
The box is a dual processor 700MHz P3 with 300Mb of RAM running Windows 2000.
Any clues?

Hey,

I had the same problem until I let the wizard set up a dummy project for me. I looked at the settings it creates and noticed that two parameters I was assuming could use the defaults in fact could not. Under the "GOP Structure" tab in "Settings", set "Output interval of seqquence header" to "1" and "MAX number of frames in a GOP" to "18". That fixed the problem for me. I still can't get a 2-pass encode to work. Any ideas on that one?

I downloaded a movie in .avi and DivX. I can't encode it in .mpg with TMPGEnc presumably because it is the version 5 of DivX. What can I do to burn it to a video CD ? Is there an alternative ? If someone can help I'd appreciate it.

you can try to encode it to divx3 or 4 with "virtua dub" this should work but I haven"t tried it,well not with divx5,I try to stay clear of divx5 cuz it is the worst developement in encodeing technoligy there ever was.....


Ashy  2002-04-09 14:37:17 ( ID:4adzcnohuc. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I don't have and never had have this problem with Divx 5, so I can only assume it's a configuration problem and not a fault of the codec itself.
Having said that the simple way would be to remove the DiVx codec and install DiVx 4.12 as this codec has the ability to decode all DiVx content including DiVx 5 and then open the file in TMPG or if that doesn't work frameserve it to TMPG with Virtualdub.

I converted divx avi to mpg, thought it was ok, so i deleted the avi. Now im left with the movie with the first half with no probs, but later in the movie it just goes out of sync. Ive cut the sync problem out and de-multiplex'd it. Now i cant figure out how to add more time on the .mp2 file so when i multiplex it, it will sync up. Is there a program that will edit .mp2 files?

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Ashy  2002-04-09 15:00:42 ( ID:4adzcnohuc. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

You're going to need MPEG2VCR.
This program will allow you to add or remove a delay when you multiplex the video and audio together.
Works a treat.
Don't worry if you cant choose the MPEG1 VCD option when you multiplex just choose the MPEG1 systems option then run it through TMPG simple multiplex option, choosing the same file for Video and audio and choose Mpeg1 Video cd as your 'TYPE'

Hi

I am going to use phillips vcd toolkit to author vcds. I have read an article that says that it will only accept white book mpegs and that tmpgenc does not create these 100%, it creates files that are compatible but not 110% white books standard. I have also read that you can solve this by demuxing the file created and remuxing with the toolkits mux. If some body, ANYBODY can tell me a definite answer I would muchly appreciate it.
Thanks

PS dont stop replying if you see someone else has replied, I need to know an answer.


sherlock  2002-04-09 02:34:11 ( ID:a6p1jd3ovjw )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

the easy answer is to use a a different program to author vcd"s,I personally would not use a program that was that picky,Is you dvd/vcd player as picky as your authoring program?if it isn"t use a different authoring program,the good thing no great thing about useing a program that does not need 100% vcd compliant mpeg"s is you can raise the bit rate and there for raise the quality,cuz the quality of 100% compliant vcd"s is less that desireable,I make my vcd"s with 200% the bit rate of standard compliant vcd"s and they have the quality of svcd"s.......this probably the answer you are looking for but it is the right answer,unless you have a dvd/vcd player that is picky,my player costs less than $100 and it plays every thing...so think about it......sherlock

Paul, what you have said is quite right, tmpgenc VCD .mpgs are not accepted by toolkit and need to be demuxed then muxed with the utility supplied with vcd2tk (or another compatible muxer like DVMPEG)


Ashy  2002-04-09 13:59:16 ( ID:4adzcnohuc. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Sherlock is absolutely right.
There is no reason for an MPEG1 file to be absolute white book standard as these standards are intended for VCD players and not DVD players.
DVD players are inherently variable bitrate machines and therefore will accept a bitrate lower or higher than the standard.
It seems pointless to me creating a vcd at the standard bitrate ( which quite frankly isn't that good ) when you can up the bitrate and use that extra space on an 80min disk that usually gets wasted. Like Sherlock says you can practically double the bitrate and increase the quality two fold.

If you need a VCD authoring program and you don't want to use Nero. Try VCDEASY. I used to use NERO, but have moved over to this excellant program which is not only free, but probably one of the best and easiest programs to use and allows you to do all sorts including adding stills and burning chapter points.
Check it out.

OK,I have done about 150 movies and not one single movie has come out properly,the video looks great and the audio sounds great,but they wont sync up even if my life depended on it,I have tried to speed up the video but that doesn"t work cuz the the amount of de-sync changes from a few seconds to up to 15 minutes,the problem seems to lie with d2v files cuz I don"t have this problem when I convert the vob"s to avi.,and it could be with "tmpgenc" project files for batch encodeing.......is there a method that would solve these problems?the sync problems have seemed to gotten worse since I started doing dvd rips to mpeg2/svcd........I don"t have this problem when I use "Cinema Craft SP" but I have other problems with it like buffer under flow....can any one help?

I split the avi with virtualDub into 2 parts...takes about 4 minutes..

Then I use TmpgEnc vers 2.53.35.130 with the svcd temlplate to build the mpg..

burn with nero 5.5.6.3 using the svcd template....

absolutely flawless my living room dvd player... no sink problems....

Sherlock I used to have A/V sync probs myself and have tried all sorts of methods to correct this. The method I have now is the fastest and NEVER gives me A/V sync probs.
It's up to you give it a go if you want, but you already know my methods work.

1. Start with the latest version of Smartripper and rip your movie.

2. Open the d2v in TMPG and do the usual encoding, but make sure you choose Video only. If your gonna frameserve to CCE then choose the DVD template, but unlock it and make sure you change the framesize and change the settings to 'video only'.
Tip: before you encode clip out any black borders just past the line where they meet the movie. It is where the black borders meet the edge of the movie that takes up a lot of bitrate as this is a complicated part to encode.

3.Once you have your Video, now do the audio.

4. Using VOB2AUDIO (I know u said u had probs, but I can't understand this because there are no settings you really need to change) find the Voblist file with a .lst extension and open it. Choose the first audio stream, usually Ac3,0x80,Sprache,English then choose your 'Target' and save it as a wav then click 'Start'.

5. After you have created your wav download a program called MPEGDJ ENCODER
http://www.xaudio.de/pages/encoder.html
Start it up and and goto Options>setup ancd click the 'Codec' tab. Change the settings to the ones below.

MPEG Layer: MPEG 1 Layer II (Mp2)
Bitrate: 224
Samplerate: 44100
Channel Mode: Stereo
Untick Normalizing.

Back in the main window click the 'Wave encoder' tab and find your wav then drag it into the bottom window. Click encode.

6. Multiplex the Audio and Video together using MPEG tools in TMPG.

7. Split the movie and burn at 4x (important) no higher.

If you try it let me know how you fare.

ASHY.

R.E RIP.

FlaskMPEG is pretty slow.
MPEG2AVI is much faster. Usually runs at 34-35fps on my P4 1.7ghz.
Give this cracking program a try RIPITALL which uses MPEG2AVI and all the other best encoding binaries.

thanx Ashy, I"ll try your first sudgestion,but with vod2audio it freezes as soon as I open it,and rip it all doesn"t read my divx codec.I have tried to download them multiple times but I"ll try again...but I think my sync problems might come from useing the "source range" option ..I use it because the merge and cut allways freezes on me....and the "source range" on cce does wierd things like it will do the passes for the part that I want to encode but then when it comes to encodeing it does the whole movie instead of the part that I want it to do,which wouldnt be so bad but it has only doen the passes for the first part so I get buffer underflow for that rest of the movie,if I could only find a mpeg cutter my problems would be solved......

Sounds like you've got some serious compatability issues there Sherlock and they all seem to stem from the same thing.
It sounds as if you may have a corrupted Directshow engine.

My advice, if you haven't done this already, would be to reinstall DirectX 8.
If that doesn't fix your problems then I would go for a full reinstall of Windows because even though DirectX will re-install it still doesn't update corrupted files sometimes (and that is from experience).
The issues you're having seem as if you are having compatability problems or conflicts somewhere.
If you do a re-install of Windows, try not to go crazy and whack a load of codecs on there you probably don't need. Try installing the programs and only the codecs you need first to see if they work ok and then install more codecs.
