Question - Frameserving from Virtualdub.VdubMod to Tmpgenc Express 3.1.5.82 No.53439
Batfink  2005-04-16 12:18:24 ( ID:.t2yyuxd81h )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

ok, this is driving me nuts, having bought tmpgenc express it does everything i want .....except frameserve properly from either Virtualdub or Virtualdubmod.

I've asked in a few forums and so far nobody has been able to help me.
Here's whats happening.

I can load a file in Virtualdub/mod and start the frame server (yes the frameserver is installed), I can save the frame serve file as either .VDR or .AVI (dont really matter).

In Tmpgenc it will load just fine, i can edit it, cut it, play it with sound, add or remove filters..whatever..it behaves exactly as you expect it to.

However as soon as i click on that "Start output button" i get this error "File is not supported. (error code 0x80048003)"

Now obviously the frame server is working fine since tmpgenc express accepts it just fine. Funny thing is, the only plugin i need active to make tmpgenc accept this file is the AVI File Reader..i reallt thought it would involve one of the VFAPI plugins

Hopefully somebody here has solved this riddle..i'm still scratching my head

Many Thanks
Batfink

I have the same problem but I found that using Verison 2.5 resolves it.

THIS WORKS!!! I finally got it!!!

open tmpgenc 2.5 Plus, and load the "DVD (NTSC) or DVD (PAL)" settings, then save the click file, save project. Open the project you just saved in 2.5 as the source in 3.0 XPress, change the settings to your liking, then encode as you would, and it works!!!

I'd say "WORKS" is a pretty big stretch -- here's my experience with your work-around:

* I could only get this to "work" with TMPGEnc Plus 2.524, which has a different Project File format from earlier versions.

* It was necessary to Enable the TMPGEnc Project File Reader 2.524 in TMPGEnc 3.0 XPress (Preferences -> Input plug-in settings)

* The TMPGEnc Plus 2.524 Project File had to be Added in TMPGEnc 3.0 XPress as a source file, not opened as a Project File

This did indeed enable TMPGEnc 3.0 XPress to get the correct source frame rate, but other weirdness (e.g., incorrect pixel format) led to unusable video (e.g., wrong frame size) with no audio.

This may not be exactly what you want, but ... Use AVI Synth as a front end fro VirtualDub (don't know about VDubMod), all you need to do is to generate an AVS file that opens the target source file within VirtualDub (eg "return MPEG2SOURCE("video_file_spec")" ). As long as VirtualDub can openit successfully, then jump into TMPGExpress, select all files and load the AVS file. Works like a charm, saves a lot of disc space not having to create all the intermediary files.

AviSynth works! In other words, instead of using VirtualDub to frameserve into TMPGEnc 3.0 XPress, use AviSynth instead -- TMPGEnc 3.0 XPress won't encode from VirtualDub, but WILL encode properly when frameserved from AviSynth!

Question - Converting licensed video? No.53437
Head  2005-04-14 16:10:42 ( ID:/92n/0gejjm )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I have licensed video (which I legally possess) that I am attempting to convert to another format.

Is this possible? Whenever I attempt to convert it in TMPGEnc 3.0 XPress, I get an error stating that I need a license for the file (which I obviously have, since the file plays in Windows Media Player).


B_Racer  2005-04-20 17:25:55 ( ID:0jd4rmr3tyn )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

DRM ONLY works on Microsoft Media Player. No other Software is able to read a DRM protected file. Therefor, there's no way to convert it.



Bug report - "Floating point number divided by 0" error. No.53436
Head  2005-04-14 16:07:06 ( ID:/92n/0gejjm )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Whenever I attempt to convert a video, I get an error, "Floating point number divided by 0."

This has happened the last five times I've tried to convert video.

Anyone got an explanation for this?



Question - TMPGenc 3.0 No.53434
sergiobn  2005-04-07 18:37:12 ( ID:cqjtv45m.u6 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I have installed TMPGenc 3.0 Express.
How do I import Quicktime movies? I could not figure out; there's no Quicktime movies option in the open dialog box.


sergiobn  2005-04-08 13:42:51 ( ID:cqjtv45m.u6 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I have checked the standard plug-ins in Preferences and there's no QuickTime plug-in in the list.
I remember that when I have installed TMPGenc 3.0 Express in my old PC the QuickTime plug-in was there as a standard plug-in.
What's the workaround here?

Use virtual dub to extract audio to a wav file then select the wav files for your sound in TMPGEnc Express.



Question - tmpgenc xpress encodes fine then goes black No.53431
vidman  2005-04-03 11:25:18 ( ID:mpwpv837utc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

hi, im using xpress to encode my sharks tale when it its the black part of movie
(when oscar gets put in the trunk at the race track , its stays black.
when you movie the slider past this point (in the the cut section) you can see the movie still, if you play (in the cut section) when its hits the black point it still stays black.

I am encoding from unencrypted dvd on HD, It plays ok on pc software, even created new ifos for it. no luck I also had bRatz encode in black from the start.
others are fine.
changed bitrate,resolution, templates etc no luck
encodes with flaskmpg fine.

thanks



Question - some mpg 1 files will not open video No.53430
JoeNezz  2005-03-30 15:07:01 ( ID:h.vkaywonm6 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I have several clips that are good quality & I wish to convert them to DVD
The problem I am having is TMP 3.0 readears will not open the video portion of the files
I have tried different combinations of the mpg readers & priories with no sucsess.
G spot identifies it as "MPEG 1 payload" codec; NTSC 4:3 VCD format
codecs already installed.

These files play fine on any media player
does anyone know of a plug in or codec that will allow TMP3.0 to read these files?

Thanks



Question - Normalizing audio in avi video No.53429
MikkoS  2005-03-28 21:40:02 ( ID:kwfi1qhp012 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Hello, is there a way to normalize (or adjust the volume) of the audio only in avi video without touching the video part in the file. The problem is that the file size is multiplied by 4 even though I use the same codec as the original file had, this is why I would prefer to leave the video part untouched.

Alternatively is there a batch process to replace the audio in avi with the correspongin wav files that have been processed by audio editor.

First, you can use any DV-Codec available on your System. I'm using Mainconcept or Canopus DV, both of them are much better than this Microsoft-shi....

DV-Codec do know exactly one Screen-Format: 720x576, 25 FpS (PAL) or 720x480, 29.97 FpS (NTSC). If you have other Params, you can't encode with DV.

Second, you should use a specialised Program to do what you whish, i recomend VirtualDubMOD.

Bug report - Mr No.53423
MButler  2005-03-10 21:42:07 ( ID:uggl1b16g8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I am having problems with the batch tool in TMPGenc 3.0 Xpress just like everyone else has described. I have read the answer provided in the FAQ on this issue but regret that I am not sure I know exactly what it means and so I do not know how to correct my use of the tool. If I add a number of files but do not register them in the batch tool they all convert properly. It is only when they are registed in the batch tool that every other file ends up all black. This is a great product which I will continue to use except for the batch tool as it is unreliable. Perhaps the development team should reconsider the answer that has been provided in the FAQ to assist us in achieving functionality for the batch tool.


drose12  2005-03-18 02:59:56 ( ID:aubtnpwr0yc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Yes, I have this problem too. I can save the project, and convert the file and it works fine. Take that same project and register it in the batch tool, and I will only get audio, no video. You can tell right away too, since the file size is way too small.

It does not seem to be easily reproducible for me tho, if we could get it reproducible, we could give it to support to fix.


MButler  2005-04-03 16:06:39 ( ID:uggl1b16g8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

With the latest revision to TMPGenc 3.0 Xpress the batch encoder tool is now working properly. I have used it successfuly for several projects. Thank you for listening Tech Support.



Question - Playback time discrepancy No.53422
bfinney  2005-03-07 01:17:42 ( ID:imwgov5lsmk )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I've noticed that m2v files encoded by TMPG are always shorter in duration than the source avis. For example, I recently encoded an avi that was 1:18:53 in length. The resulting m2v (and mpg when I didn't go to elementary streams) was 1:18:48. The corresponding ac3 file was 1:18:53, as expected.

So the question is, what accounts for the 5 second discrepancy? This isn't a one-time event, and the time difference seems to vary linearly with the length of the clip.

Anybody know what's going on here?



Question - Mr No.53420
BJ and the Bear  2005-03-02 15:58:57 ( ID:dro3epfsbrn )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Can anyone advise. I have been using TMPGEnc Xpress to convert AVI to DVD format (or rather MPEG2) ready for putting through DVD Author and creating a DVD.

I have a 2.7ghz Athlon processor with 1gig of RAM and to convert 2 AVi files of say 120meg each is taking in the region of 8-9 hours.

Where am I going wrong?

Any help would be appreciated

BJ


Zortag  2005-05-20 12:19:23 ( ID:ojvwqr3fono )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Don't focus on the AVI file size, it can be very misleading in determining how much processing you are asking to be done by any format converter. Major factors are frame size conversions, frame rate conversions, be aware that some audio filters require re-encodeing the entire audio. If its an AVI to DVD conversion, you are more than likely doubling the size of each frame, may be changing the frame rate (NTSC/PAL), and more than likely the entire must also be decoded and re-encoded while maintaning synch with the video, and finally compressing the whole thing to your specified bit rate. Believe me 8 hours is not that unusual.
