Hi, I have used tmpgenc for a while and it was working fine in conjunction with Nero.
I downloaded new version and now when I convert to MPG, it works fine on my pc. I then convert it to VCD as I have done many times before, now when I go to watch it on my DVD player, it is 1 quarter the size of the screen and is alwasy in the top left of the TV, yes it is the full picture, just shrunk. All my previously created VCD's still play fine.
Here is what is Confuseing me, You said that the Mpeg file plays fine on your PC Screen , but then you convert it to VCD as you have done Many times Before...If it is a Mpeg file shouldn"t it allready be a VCD(VCD is Mpeg), there for you don"t need to convert it to VCD cuz it is allready a VCD??? Anyways if the File Plays fine on your Computer then it isn"t a Tmpgenc problem But a problem with your Burning program...Encodeing the File to The Wrong Resolution will Cause the Problem that you are Haveing, so check that the Resolution of the VCD file is Compliant with VCD Specs....
Ok, when I meant convert to VCD, I mean take mpg file from hard disk and use nero to put it onto a cd so I can watch it on my DVD player, which is a conversion of sorts as it adds the VCD player software.
If I use winoncd 6 to create the VCD(it also does a new conversion as it says the mpg file is encoded incorrectly) then it works full screen fine.
Anybody know default tmgenc settings for creating full screen PAL ? Thanks
You are obviously a novice at this even though you say you have done it before many times.
To use TMPG to convert to standard VCD all you have to do is select the VCD PAL template then use the VCD option in NERO to burn and you can't go wrong, but if this file is working on your PC it can't be the encoding process unless you have encoded to some weird resolution which your DVD player cannot handle.
If the MPEG isn't encoded properly then NERO will tell you so.
Also did you split this MPEG? If so did you set the stream type to 'MPEG1 VCD'.
I was just wondering if it is possible to 'clip' off elements of an audio track and then just to have an earlier element repeated in it's place. For example i have a 3 second video clip and I want to remove the audio of the last second and then repeat the sound from the first second I've tried going into "other settings" (4th option on the "source range" page). In the "MPEG" settings page I then went to the "audio" tab. Then with audio edit highlighted I tried to remove the last second of audio, but this doesn't seem to work. I'm at a loss, if you can, please help. Thankyou in advance.
When I try to encode a mpeg 2 file it says its not supported, I installed a few dvd player programs like mediamatics dvd express, cyberlink power dvd 4 and a few others and every time TMPG still gives me the not supported error I have tried almost everything
Since you have Power DVD Installed you should have the Cyberlink Mpeg2 decoder installed so Tmpgenc can open Mpeg2 files, So check the "Vfapi Plugins" and see if the "Cyberlink Mpeg2 decoder" is Registered, and if it is Try raiseing the Priority of the Plugin...But I still Find it Much easier and Faster to use DVD2AVI to Frame serve the Video to Tmpgenc to encode(Don"t encode the audio Cuz it is allready in Mpeg format)..DVD2AVI is a Faster Mpeg2 decoder that the Decoders that Tmpgenc uses....
insert the avi in tmpg
check the "source" box
a new box will open
at the bottom u will see audio gap correct
this bit is trial an error to get the right setting so do a few tests
That Might not work either depending on what type of sync problem it is...If the Audio is the Same amout out of sync the whole way through the Movie then the method described above will fix it But if say the Movie starts out in Sync but By the end of the Movie it is way out of sync then this is Much harder to fix and you would need to stretch the audio to the length of the video with an audio editing program...
I used DVD2AVI and created a .D2V file. Some directions I have states that I need to download VFAPI plug-in in order for TMPGEnc to recognize the .D2V as a legal file type. I can't seem to find a download link that works. Please help.
One note I found said you can download it from TMPGEnc's homepage, but I sure don't find it there.....
You don't need the VFAPI plugin for DVD2AVI project files. The TMPG VFAPI plugin is so TMPG can read it's own project files and is already included with the TMPG download.
Just copy DVD2AVI.vfp from the DVD2AVI folder into your TMPG folder. If you still have problems raise it's priority in the VFAPI plugins.
I'm new to this so please forgive me if this has been asked before.
I've recently downloaded some AVI files which I'd like to convert to VCD format. I have other software which copies directly from DVD to VCD and the video quality is excellent, even with just VCD settings.
However, after I've encoded the AVI using TMPGenc to MPG format, I played the MPG file on my PC and it was fine, but then using the same software that I used to copy DVD's, I copy the MPG image to VCD, and the video quality is very poor and choppy, but the audio is fine.
Could anyone please help me and tell me if there are any settings I should be doing in TMPGEnc to create a higher quality MPG file? I don't know if my player supports SVCD files or not.
I've used VCDeasy to create the VCD from DVD's and MPG but the quality is different. I obviously can appreciate that DVD quality is better to begin with, and if this is why the result is so different, then so be it. But if anyone also knows settings for VCD easy that have worked for them, I'd really appreciate it.
If the Playback is Choppy then that could be because of many things But usually because you have encoded to the wrong Frame rate..You have to find out the Frame rate of your AVI file then encode to that Frame rate, if you use a Frame rate that is Different that the AVI files frame rate then you will get this Jumpy effect when watching .....
I set up 8 projects last night. All about hour clips. It highlighted them all and hit run. I woke up to find 4 done. What about the rest. Then I did the same with the remaining 4. Well i come home and it stopped after 2. What gives? I know my system can handle it. Any suggestions?
I have a SVCD version of a movie here. My stand-alone player tho only plays VCDs, so I wanted to use TMPGEnc to convert the file (AVSEQ01.MPG of the SVCD) into MPEG1 to burn it on a VCD. But as soon as I select this file for import, the HD works but the program hangs and after a while I have to close it via Windows Task Manager.
You need to copy the file to the hard drive first. It's not a good idea to try and work directly from a disk like this as you will have problems, as you have noticed. It's not hanging, but just loading the file very very slowly.
Read error occurred at address 00402F40 of Module 'TMPGenc.exe' with 6461654E
this is what happens when I just tried encoding one of my .avi files, after not being able to open it in the program, but then i had put the priority option of DIRECTSHOW up to 2, and it allowed me to open it, but when I hit "START" to encode the problem at the top is what occurrs.
Error/Program Closes When I try to load .asf and .avi file
Its worked for most asf files and avi files and mpg files, but I got a few files that I want to convert to mpeg for a VCD, but when I open them the program immediately says theres an error and closes.
Make sure you have the Latest WMV/WMA Codecs installed, and if you still have Problems go to "Options" to "Enviromental Settings" to Vfapi Plugins" and Raise the "Direct Show" to "2"..And see if that helps..And I warn you that you might not get any Audio output from your ASF Files cuz Tmpgenc can sometimes have problems with the WMA audio format used By ASF Files, it is a Good idea to encode the audio with a different audio encoder....
