When I try loading my d2v file that was made using DVD2AVI, it freezes for about 10 seconds, then gives the error: "Tmpgenc has caused an error in KERNEL32.DLL. Tmpgenc will now close." Then, it gives this error: "File C:... can not open or unsupported." I've had the d2v files work from other movies, but with this one I'm having troubles. I've got the DVD2AVI.vfp in the environmental settings and everything. Any suggestions?

Make a New D2V file with DVD2AVI....

How do I cut a large mpeg file (718 mb) into smaller chapters?

Well I guess the odvious way would be to use a Mpeg editor.you can try the "Mpeg Tools" Merge & Cut" ...Go to "File" to "Mpeg tools" to "merge & Cut" and you can figure it out from there.it"s easy as Pie...And a 718MB Mpeg file isn"t a Big Mpeg file...You can fit it and More on a 700mb 80 minute CD-r....

He can use a 74 Minutes CD-R.

74 Minutes = 737 MB
80 Minutes = 797 MB

And Chapters without cutting into parts can be done with VCDEasy.

I just wanna say that yes people, I am pretty much a beginner.I've been encoding for about 5-6 months and I'm STILL learning more from experience and experimenting with different projects.You people teach me alot of what I need to know. I wanna thank everyone on here for all your advice, support and help for everything!!

when I'm encoding a movie and when it's done, I get no sound...I have before, but since I've cleaned my hard drive things have changed alot, and this is one of the issues I'm experiencing now. I'm sorry people for all the questions and problems but I like encoding movies myself and learning how to at the same time from you guys teaching me! please help me with this issue and I'll try to stay off here for awhile...and maybe I can give someone else some advice when I learn enough from you all. (LOL)...thanks!!!

Well the audio in the source file is probably not supported By tmpgenc, or you don"t have the proper Decoders installed on your machine..What you need to do is Extract the audio from the Avi file to a WAV file with Virtual Dub then use that as the audio source in Tmpgenc...

Does TMPGEnc limit the source file size to 4 Gigs? If so, how do you get around this limitation?

No Tmpgenc does not limit the File size But your Opperateing system Might...

I am running Windows2000 with NTFS which does not limit the file size. Any other ideas as to what it might be?

Nope I have no idea...I run XP and use encode mpeg file bigger than 4 gb quite often...You can try encodeing it in 2 parts and joining the 2 files after....

about 4% into encoding i get this error index of scan line is out of range 360

I seem to be having problems encoding some programmes! I have encoded films like James Bond from avi files fine! But when i encode smaller files the sound becomes all jumpy! There will be sound for a second then a second with out! and it keeps repeating itself over and over! Can ny1 tell me what Im doing wrong?
Thanks In advance!!!!

Well tell us what you are doing then Maybe we can tell you what you are doing wrong...But what it sounds like to me is that the avi file has "VBR MP3" audio which is not supported in Tmpgenc..You need to extract the audio to a WAV file with "Virtual Dub" then use the WAV file as the audio source..It is a Good idea to do this with most files so you don"t have audio problems later...

Sorry I am a complete beginner.
If I rip a dvd to my hard disc using smart ripper and then encode with Tmpgenc the first vob file auto populates the audio field and works fine but vob 2,3 and 4 wont and can't be picked manually so no sound!
What am i doing wrong?
It all works ok if I us eazy DVD to do the whole thing.
Many thanks

You DONT load Vob files directly into Tmpgenc...Tmpgenc can"t differentiate between Audio tracks and video tracks and subtitle tracks, and Can"t properly decode Dolby Digital Audio and it is 5 times slower to encode the vob files directly and the quality isn"t as good doing it that way...If you Used "Smartripper" to Rip the Vob files to your Hard drive then you should have a file in the Vob file folder called a ".D2V" file, you load this file into Tmpgenc and encode it..and to get the audio you use something like "Vob2Audio" to extract the correct audio track to a WAV file then you load the WAV file into tmpgenc as the audio source...Or what most poeple do is use "DVD2AVI" to extract the video and audio from the Vob File then encode to mpeg with Tmpgenc...if you do it this way you will see a BIG improvement in encodeing speed and Quality....

Many thanks.
I understand now.

what program do you open it with

Explain what your Question is......We don"t read Minds!!!!!

Windows.

I used the mpeg tool to cut a SVCD with 2 audio channels but I found that the resulting SVCD has only one audio channel. I used Merge&Cut MPEG-2 Super VideoCD (VBR).

well Use something else...There aren"t any Special settings that will make it work...Either it works or you have to use something else...

Hey everyone,

I am looking for a plugin for tmpg which will allow me to export to a .mov file, and lets me set the options, like of like how Discreet Cleaner 5 does it.. Any suggestions?

There is a "Mov-Quicktime Plugin" that will allow you to encode Mov Files to mpeg, you can get it in the Quicktime plugin here:http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/4942/svcd.html ....

I am getting a buffer underflow while replacing a MPEG2-fileheader (SVCD-format) to a MPEG1 file header (VCD-format) with TMPGEnc, MPEG-tools section, single-multiplex tab. How come? .

You ask how come when you are doing something that is totally against the Mpeg specification??the reason is Because the Packet size for VCD and SVCD are different so the buffers overflow or underflow cuz the data packets aren"t the correct siZe..you should try useing the "Merge & Cut" instead of the Multiplex to add the VCD header..you just load the file in then change the setting in the Drop down menu then choose the "output" directory the click "run" and it should change the header without giveing you the error....
