why does it say it cant load cant load p3package.dll when i am trying to finally rip a dvd? i have gone through all of the steps up until where you fill the video and audio directory, and i hit start and it doesnt work, it gives me the previously stated message
Language like that isn"t going to get you question answered but might get you ignored or banned...What my learned Colegue was trying to say is that if you use the search function at the top of this page you will get your question answered more quickly cuz this question has been answered many times.......
I think that it would be good idea to add bitrate/GOP/etc. analisys tool. Until now found only one program that can do that, and I think it costs too much for what it does. In theory it should be easy, after all, alot of info is already saved into the log files, all needed to be done is to present it graphically with statystical info...
BitRateViever is also a good tool and the price is ok, too. But why have thousands of tools, when you can have it all in one tool together. By the way, i think TMPG is allready a good combination of good tools, look at all the MPEG-Tools TMPG has (Multiplex / Demultiplex / Merge / Cut). But i think this can be extended, i would like to have a "Bitrate Viewer" included in TMPG too, and also a Multi-Pass Encoding feature, as i wrote above. There were not many NEW features in the last version, most of all was bugfixes. I would like to see more new ideas (even from this board) put into action.
I really did reffer to BitrateViewer... I would like something similar that would give me a graph with info on bitrate and similars, but if TMPGenc costs 48, then spending 25 for some graph program is a bit stupid I think...
Maybe I'll just try to make myself (using very primitive tools) a program that will read TMPGenc log files and display the info in graphs... Though wouldn't be much help for anything else if no log is present...
Hello
I have this problem with tmpg when i try to encode to mpg2 from any source it pops up a message after a few minutes that says. (Read error ocurred at address 00481837 of module `tmpgEnc.exe` with 6E1C14E1.) what can i do?
it could be the hard drive?
when you load a template some settings cant be changed. I guess so you dont accidentaly mess it up. I want to keep mpeg 1 video but i want a higher bitrate (so nero lets me burn the disk). Is there a way that i can change the settings while a template is loaded.
I have a 732MB .dat file of a movie which is like 1h18m in length. Whenever i use the simple demultiplex in the mpeg tools option the resulting m1v and mp2 files are both 39m54s in length. Why is the de-multiplex option cutting the film just before 40mins? This is happening on all the .dat files I demultiplex. What could be the reason?
I just used tmpgenc 2.56 to convert the Spiderman avi file that I have to mpg. My problem is that after the first few seconds, the audio disappears. How do I prevent that from happening? Will 2.57 fix that problem?
This could be because the audio is "VBR MP3" and tmpgenc does not support that format, what you need to do is use "Virtual Dub"to extract the audio to a wav file and use that as you audio source......
I was just wondering. I am trying to decide which encoder to buy. TMPGEnc is so much cheaper than Cinema Craft Encoder. Does that mean it does a poorer job. Which of the two is better/faster and why? If anyone knows I would appreciate it. I am sure everyone here are big TMPGEnc fans but please help be be objective. Or at least refer me to some good reviews that have been posted somewhere on the net.
Personally I think that TMPGEnc does a wonderful job. And VCDHelp too... they said that TMPGEnc was the best encoder avalaible. It has a lot of options and possibilities and as you said it is cheap. So why pay more for less or equal features???
Cinemacraft encoder is, in a good percentage, faster than TmpegEnc. BUT... no resize, no filters, no VFAPI, does no accept avisynth/virtualdub frameserving (Version 2.62 and later), no tools for mux/demux mpeg streams,... CCE only encodes *.avi files very good and fast, but no more.
I think It was originally developed as a "professionals only" program.
It depends on what you want the program for.
If it's for commercial MPEG2 production then you can't beat CCE for speed and quality. As for MPEG1 production there is no better encoder than TMPG, not even CCE comes close.
Having said this TMPG does an excellant job at encoding MPEG1 or MPEG2 and it's MPEG2 output is better than most other encoders and is by no means unacceptable. On the contrary the quality is very high.
As has been said the advantage with TMPG is it's versatility and filters, much more bang for your buck than any other encoder I know of.
Regarding the quality of CCE MPEG2 encoding and TMPG MPEG2 encoding. I would say the quality difference is really only noticable at low bitrates and is where CCE shines, the other advantage of CCE is it's multipass capability. Where TMPG has only a 2 pass, CCE can acheive 9 passes.
Unless you are a serious quality freak then I would say TMPG will more than suffice for most people and for the money no other encoder can touch it.
I guess every ones has there opinion but I choose CCE hands down for encodeing speed and mpeg2 quality, there are no filters or resize but that it what Tmpgenc and the Vfapi converter is for, so you can use the filters and resize from Tmpgenc in CCE, so it is like haveing all the exelent features of Tmpgenc but with the speed and quality if CCE, the best of both worlds.....
Well B_Racer that is your opinion that CCE is only a fairy tale regarding it's superior quality, but most people who have ever used TMPG and CCE, and know what they are doing it comes to encoding, will agree that CCE has the edge over TMPG.
I used TMPG for a long time before trying out CCE, so I know how to get the best from TMPG, but as soon as I started to use CCE I saw the quality improvement immediately of it's MPEG2 files.
I have yet to see another software encoder which comes close.
As for your opinion about the Panasonic encoder being best for MPEG1, I think you mostly on your own with that one.
Hello everyone I need your help! I have a 920 megabyte MPEG file on my c: drive is it possible for me to convert this mpeg into a cue file? And how could I achieve this?? Thanks guys for your help :)
Thanks for your reply back Ashy! Actually I will be burning to 99min cdr¡Çs, so I wanted see if it was possible to do it with out splitting it up??? again thanks for your help!
It is possible. I think Nero is your best option as you may end up with an error if you create a cue file.
You will most probably have to use Nero's overburning option in the expert features to achieve this. Set the overburn to 99mins and select DAO when you burn. This will pop up a window asking if you wish to overburn the cd.
When trying to convert an AVI File to MPEG, I sometimes get a message stating "Can not open, or Unsupported" Why am I getting this and how can I fix it?
Hi,
when I am rendering a mpg with more than 4000bit/s,
my sound gets fuzzy and I hear a deep sound all the
time, like an earthquake.
My sourcevideo contains a lot of high sounds,
so maybe someone here could tell me if that's
the reason, why my sound is so bad.
TIA, Hajo
I have been researching the difference between SVCD and VCD. On many websites it shows that A VCD and and SVCD with the same bit-rate can be the same file size. IS this true and if so would there be any difference in quality?
It depends MPEG1 is basically the same as MPEG2, but MPEG2 supports extra features such as interlacing and 3:2 pulldown. It is also better suited to high resolutions and allows more tweaking, so in theory MPEG2 is better than MPEG1 if you know how to tweak it.
