I have just downloaded this.........is there a tutorial so i can learn how to use it

DVDRhelp.com

After encoding some AVI files to mpeg, sometimes I only have 1/2 second of audio and then nothing more. Video looks fine.
Audio file is created with Adobe Premiere
If I export the files separately from Premiere (avi without audio and WAV file) then provide them as separate input, everything works fine.
Has anybody experienced this kind of problem? Do you have any solution?

WHEN I CONVERT MY OGM TO MPEG2 ES VIDEO ONLY THE IMAGES TURNS BLACK AND WHITE FRO THE ORIGINAL COLOR VIDEO. IS THERE SOME SETTING I AM MISSING

I think it's your CAPS lock that is stuck.

Sorry about stupped question.
All the time what I stoped convertation
and after any time try to continue -
it's start from "start point".
What's wrong?

You cannot continue from where you left off.
You could use the source range function to begin the encoding from the point you stopped it though.

Sorry for the double post. Confused the meaning of title. LOL.

Good day to you all. I have this problem I hope expert here can help me.
I try to merge 2 mpg files using TMPGEnc. It merge & play successfully but whenever it reach the point of joint, it would sound a short beep. What cause this? Anyway to solve it?

Thank you very much in advance to you all.

So that's why people post with that daft 'Mr' subject line is it!

When you join ensure you click the 'Correct' button first.
If that doesn't cure it then try moving the join a few frames. I.E take a few frames off the end of the first part or take a few off the beginning of the second part.

There are people having the same mistake as me?? :D

I tried all this before. Hopefully you still have other solution?

Anyway, thank for the help.

Hi there.

Need help. I just downloaded the 2.5 and I'm trying to convert some of my AVIs. I'm using Pinacle Studio AV/DV to capture videos then edit them with Adobe Premier Pro. From there I export my video to Microsoft DV AVI. From that, I take the DV AVI file and convert it using TMPGEnc 2.5. Thing is when I do that, like I said, I end up with a blank video. Anyone seen this? Any know what I need to do?

Another thing is when I export the video using Studio 9 to AVI then use TMPGEnc, it converts just fine. So why not the videos I make with Premier?

Hope anyone can help. Thanks in advance for anyone who'll try.


Gene.

I record vob files from a Panasonic dvd recorder. When I bring the vob files into TMPGEen the length of the video under properties is very short when compared to actual length of the video. Is there anyway to reset the length of the video to the actual clip length? This causes problems when I try to recombine the audio and video as it cuts off at the originally listed length.

I have a little problem here that irritates me at times. I have an old TV-Tuner card and that old TV Tuner Card only support AVI files. I had to choose uncompressed AVI to prevent frames being drop out during recording. Well, the uncompressed AVI files really eats up my 40GB Harddisk - 10 minutes for almost 2 GB!!
When I tried to encode these captures into Mpeg files to save space, TMPGEnc will encode for first few 4000-7000 frames, it will claim it is finished. (but it was not...) This will always happens on the 8 - 10 minutes video capture. In worst cases, the Operating System hangs.
This is my system specification:
AMD Duron 800MHZ
WInsonic WSV6A17 (VIA KT133 Chipset)
Gigabyte ATI Radeon 7000 64 MB DDR
256MB PC133 SD-ram
Hauppauge WinTV Go! PCI TV Tuner Card
Maxtor DiamondMax plus-8 7,200RPM 2MB Buffer 40GB
Windows 98 Second Edition

This used to be an old problem with the AVI size limit barrier in TMPG, but it should now be fixed.

Open TMPG and go to Options>Enviromental settings>Vfapi plugins and raise the priority of the 'AVI2(Open DML) file reader' to 2 or 3 making sure it is top of the list then try again.

If you still have porblems after that you may need to frame serve the file with AVIsynth.

By the way if you want to improve your capture rate try changing your capture software.
I use to capture with a P3 500 and 128mb RAM at 400x300 without dropping any frames.
Some people say don't use DIVX for capture, but I used to get excellant rates capturing with DIVX 5 and setting the the Performance/Quality to fastest.
Fastes won't reduce the quality, but it will use less compression and create a bigger file, but far less than an uncompressed AVI.

Make sure you have WDM drivers installed for your capture card and use WDM capture software.
The best capture program I have used and will give you a better capture rate than most is IUVCR. You can also use the modified and improved WDM drivers that they have for your card.

Ah ha! I works completely! I even works with my AVI file that is 2.51GB (windows 98 claimed the file size is -1592908800 bytes) Wonderful! Thanks you Ashy. How I can encoded them without spliting and recominding them now. Thanks a lot.
(*psst: now then I know why is program haven't been updated since 2003, it has no more problems and doesn't needs an update!! :D)
Once again, Thanks.

Glad u got it sorted.

Uh-Oh....
I have the same problem again for today's TV show... :D
I made the piority to 20 and it don't seems to work...
Anymore way to solve this problem...

i tried to load my movie into tmpgenc and it doesn't have sound.?

the sound works fine when played in nero showtime. the video is actually perfect too. its just when i play it in the dvd player that it looks like the tracking is weird and there's no colour.

You need to find out what the audio is in your source.
If it's an AVI it is likely AC3 or VBR mp3.
If you download a little utility called AVIcodec it will tell you what you need to know.
Post back with the info.

Your DVD playback problem sounds like you are trying to play the wrong format in your player I.E. NTSC in a PAL player.
If your DVD player is connected by SCART then have a look in your DVD players video output settings and set it to RGB output.
This may cure the problem.
If not you will have to do a format conversion.

hmm...it appears that i am a not quite the computer genius....i tried changing the setting on my dvd player from "multi" to "ntsc"...hee hee ...and it worked...blush...

thanks ashy

The m1v codec is not playing on several test machines. How do I correct this?

What do you mean the M1v codec.
M1v is not a codec it is the name for an MPEG1 video only stream.

You must have an MPEG capable player on your sytem to play it.
All windows OSes come with support for MPEG1 such as Windows media player

What is the error you ahve when trying to play.

ive got a few avi files im trying to put on dvd. i know questions like this have been posted and im looking through them for info but im not getting anywhere. heres how im doing the conversion:
i use vdub and save the wav, then save the avi with no sound.
i convert the wav to mp2.
i use tmpgenc and select dvd(ntsc) and select the mp2 sound and the soundless avi.
after its converted and i play it the sound is 3 seconds slow. like the peoples mouths will move and then 3 seconds later i hear what there saying.
ive tried using the wav instead of the mp2 but i get the same thing. i also tried cbr and vbr.

the movie is fine before i encode it its just after that this happens.

all the other avis ive done work fine..... could it be something that has to do with a codec or something?
im gunna keep looking through old posts but please help me out with this id really appreciate it.

the fps is 23.976 btw

Why do you create another AVI without sound? Just use the one you've got and the new wav.

The first thing to do is to use Virtualdub. Load your existing AVI with audio then load the the wav you have created as the audio source.
Play it in Vdub, is it in sync?
If not use the audio delay feature until it syncs. When you find the right value you can either use that in the source range of TMPG and re-encode or you can add the value when muxing using BBMPEG.

By the way, why do you need to create a wav in the first place?

i heard it was faster if i split the 2 before i used tmpgenc. when i play it in vdub it works fine.
