OK well a while back I posted praising TMPGEnc for the ability to load AVI segments and encode as a single video file (I still think it rocks)! Then I said in the future, the ability to chain together mpg segments into a single encode would rock too..
Ashy then posted and said it already does this, try it out..
So I did? I have mpeg-2 segments named exactly the same as the AVI segments were. The AVI segments all load up properly chained together in TMPGEnc. But the Mpeg-2 segments will not. It still just loads the first one then stops. Am I missing something obvious here, or was I right to begin with that TMPGEnc will not load multiple mpg segments as a single animation?
Hi, thanks for the tip. I downloaded m2v.vfp and put it into TMPGEnc folder. Then in environmental settings I made sure that the MPEG-2 Video Plug-In was enabled. Now, when I opened a segmented mpg 2 file, it did load all of the segments! I had 109 minutes of mpeg-2 video loaded all at once.
BUT, it shows 'video file' only? The Audio File source doesn't load at all. The mpeg-2 segments actually consist of both video and audio. If I just were to load one of the segments by itself using the normal intervideo mpeg-2 codec, TMPGEnc would load both the video and audio streams. With m2v it doesn't load the audio stream at all.
Am I doing something wrong? Is this plug-in supposed to load the audio with the video source so I can output everything together?
PS: What about Mpeg-1 files, there is no way to load them as segmented source?
I'm trying to convert a QuickTime MOV file to VCD format: What a nightmare.
The file MOV to MPG VCD conversion stalls at 12% each time I try it.
So I thought I would try converting to AVI first, and then going AVI to VCD. This appeared to work okay (it didnt stall at 12%). But when I played the AVI file, colors were a mess, there were red, green, and blue horizontal lines through the entire video, all of the action scenes were basically grayscale, each frame basically consisted of 3/4 of one frame and 1/4 of another frame, and the entire video displayed at about a 25 degree angle.
There HAS to be a way to make this conversion. I'd appreciate any suggestions!
I did MOV to AVI the same way i would convert anything else (such as an oversized MPG) to AVI - Used TMPGEnc, Divx codec, pretty basic stuff that *always* works fine. Can you think of any reason why it turned into such a disaster?
I'm using TmpgEnc v2.58 to convert AVI file ( Divx ) to Mpg file ( VCD ).
It' s a very good software. But i've a little problem with an AVI file.
When I look the movie in windows media player it's Ok. After encoding, when i look the Mpg file ( in windows media player or with BsPlayer ) the Movie freeze and the sound continue normally !!! Strange isn't it !!!
I found the problem the AVI have some frames corrupted. The player can read, But TmpgEnc can't encode correctly and freeze the picture just before the corrupted frame and freeze.
I correct the problem with AVIedit to encode a new time the avi file ( with the same parameters ). Now, TmpgEnc work correctly.
This experience say me that the software like DivFix ( to repair corrupted avi file) doesn't work efficiently, Better work is encode the file a new time.
So, I hope that this experience can be of use to the other users of TmpgEnc
I am trying to convert still jpg pics to mpeg, everything works fine except the audio plays for the full duration and the picture just flashes for a second? Any help would be appreciated...
What do you mean it Just flashes for a Second??One image or Jpeg Picture is Only 1 frame so it will only appear for a 1/24th of a second, you will need at least 24 Jpeg pics to make a Second of Movie with the Frame rate set at 24fps...What you should try is to set the Frame rate to "1fps/24fps Internally" this will make a single Jpeg appear as 1 second of of Movie....
Could you make it to where tmpgenc can do the 2 pass at different times? for instance set up to save the info from the first pass to a file and then at a later time load the file to do the second pass.
I've got about 120GB of video that I'm finally getting around to writing to VCD. I'm trying TMPGEnc for the first time and it seems to work really well. I've been able to make 3 VCD's.
However it is very time consuming. I have to go through and manually select each source file and then manually change the target directory. Manually Clicking on each screen as it comes up. Needless to say this is taking a lot of time.
Is there a way to just select a source and target directory and tell it once what format I want?
