Question - Cuda is not working for me No.58533
aztec  2008-11-27 16:14:44 ( ID:qcakrejw5a2 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Hello, i have version 4.6.2.266 of TMPGEnc 4.0 XPress and i'm trying to use the gpu to encode.

i went to Preferences/nVidia CUDA 2.0 and i checked the 3 option but it does not work.

it takes 6 minutes to encode a video with or with out those options checked.

WinXP64-Intel Dual-core@3200-nvidia 8800 GT

i have installed the 64b CUDA Drivers 2.1 would that be the problem ? should i get the 64b 2.0 driver ? (because in preference says "nVidia CUDA 2.0")

regards


aztec  2008-11-27 17:11:34 ( ID:qcakrejw5a2 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

i've tried with Cuda drivers 2.0 and its the same, does not work...

I think you guys have an unsupported grapgic card model.
In their website they have written in red text this:
"*Speed improvements are dependent on your hardware specifications.
The GeForce8800 GTX/GTS video card using the G80 core is not currently supported. Thank you for your understanding.
Decoding benefits apply to MPEG-1/2 video only and may produce unexpected video output quality compared to regular CPU decoding."
Reference:
http://tmpgenc.pegasys-inc.com/en/product/te4xp.html
so I think you should get a new CUDA card.
good luck

im having the sape problem too, im using the Nvidia gtx 280 which is the newset of nivida and Cuda is not working for me even with the latest driver.
any idea about fixing that isue.


tkrave  2008-12-01 22:58:58 ( ID:lgrl8ryjzyl )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Are you guys applying video filters? Are you decoding MPEG-1/2? If you are not doing either of those, you will not see a difference in encoding time. Simple as that.

Also, update the software to the latest version; they just released 4.6.3.267.


worldcitizen  2008-12-05 16:37:25 ( ID:py4r.all6km )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I have the same problem. Before Cuda would show up now it's always on 0.0%. I'm using an 8800GT (G92) with the latest Nvidia 180 drivers. Is it a bug in the latest 268 release because version 267 worked ok?


tkrave  2008-12-05 18:14:13 ( ID:lgrl8ryjzyl )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Have you guys run the performance optimizer? If not, do it; it may solve some problems.

And again, if you are not applying video filters or using the MPEG decoder, you will not see a difference in output time, nor will CUDA be used.



Question - 1080i AVCHD to 720p MPEG 2? No.58531
Lloyd  2008-11-27 08:31:42 ( ID:ptve11sazj. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Forgive please my newbie question, but I am planning on buying a camcorder (Canon Vexia HF100) that produces only 1080i AVCHD files. But my projectors are 720p. So can I use TMPGEnc to convert the 1080i AVCHD files to 720p mpeg2 files?

Thanks!

Lloyd


myself  2008-11-28 08:36:45 ( ID:uexq2jhhhql )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I think its possible, just check about MPEG-2 output template settings and choose the size, if I remember well you dont need to set it since its already set by default.
But before buy the software I recomend you to test its Trial version first.
good luck



Request - Utilize 100% of all of my CPU cores No.58529
JustMe  2008-11-26 18:33:12 ( ID:nehw92igjlo )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

This is more of a question and if the answer is NO, then a request.

Is it possible to utilize 100% of all four of my CPU cores to encode a movie? I can see that during the encode all four cores are being used, but the encoder never uses their full potential. Even when encoding 2+ movies at a time (while running one instance of the batch encoder) it never goes above 50% utilization of all four cores. It uses nearly 100% of core 0, and about 33% of core 1, 2 and 3. I would really like to be able to fully utilize all the power of my quad core to reduce my encoding time.

To clarify, I CAN fully use 100% of all four cores by running two instances of the batch encoder and then setting the affinity of one batch encoder to cores 0/1 and the other batch encoder to cores 2/3. This is a lame work around that I shouldn't have to do, but works fine for encoding more than one movie at a time. My main complaint is when I only want to encode one movie. It takes twice as long as it should because all cores aren't fully utilized.

Is there some setting I missed to fully use all four cores? If not, I would really like to see a fix for this in the near future.

Thanks


myself  2008-11-28 06:14:48 ( ID:uexq2jhhhql )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I think this is not consern from the application speed regarding the cores, its about codec's speed so it depends on the codecs used and its features.
For example by encoding with QT the speed is not full since QT codec does not or supports to use all the cores.
good luck



Question - Select Audio Track No.58527
streetsounds  2008-11-26 10:04:57 ( ID:78u/hwkma.2 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I am running TMPGEnc 4.0 XPress 4.6.3.267. When I load a .m2ts stream (for example after ripping one of my Blu-Ray disc) it shows the video and audio stream as eg 0001.m2ts). Now in some cases I am good and it plays english audio and I can convert the movie. However many times yo get frensh or spanish as language. Any idea where I can select the audio track or how to make sure I get an english audio stream ? The help file does not give any info about it.


myself  2008-11-28 06:10:06 ( ID:uexq2jhhhql )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

You have 2 options;
1st-- Download the Editor 3 Trial version;
http://tmpgenc.pegasys-inc.com/en/download/tme3.html
and try this:
-1 Open the MPEG Tools [Demultiplexer Advanced] from Editor 3, and
input your .m2ts file by drag 'n drop into the "Input" part.
-2 Click the "Start" button to demultiplex your file (the output files
must be in the same folder).
-3 Input the video and audio files in XPress 4 at the Clip properties
window you can set and choose the Audio English file already
demultiplexed from from Editor's 3 Demultiplexer Advanced.

2nd-- Look in Google or other portal this freeware application "tsMuxerGUI" and tri it.
good luck

Question - Can I make Tmpgenc accept AC3 5.1 audio? No.58519
Tonyh  2008-11-24 10:23:48 ( ID:dil/oc.rnjr )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I remember way back in Tmpgenc Xpress 4.2.3.193 I can import AC3 audio with full 5.1 channels by plugin TSP-AC3-1.3-install-EN. Now I do the same with Tmpgenc Xpress 4.6.2.266 but this time it does not accept 5.1 channels but just 2 channels. Does the new Tmpgenc Xpress supports old plugin? Or is there any other way to enable 5.1 channel support in Tmpgenc Xpress?


myself  2008-11-28 05:51:17 ( ID:uexq2jhhhql )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

If my memory isnt bad, TXP4 does not support to output in Dolby Digital 5.1 in anyway.
good luck


old-hack  2009-01-07 19:49:26 ( ID:xlaelkhtbnr )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I create Windows Media Video output files in High Def (1920 X 1080) with AC3 5.1 audio using Xpress all the time. You might want to consider installing AVISYNTH, K-Lite Codecs Package, and Windows Media Encoder. All of these are free and support numerous codecs that may not be available in the standard installation of Xpress 4.0. Then you can output all types of video resolutions and audio configurations.


Modify_inc  2009-04-23 00:48:42 ( ID:ifkmfpme582 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Yes you may be able to choose 5.1 surround under audio WMA 10 Advance, but when you check it in any audio receiver it will only register as 2 channel/stereo. They need to fix this issue as everything now days is in surround sound. What good is ripping your Blu Ray, and only to get it played back in stereo. That's a joke...



Bug report - CUDA not available to limited user accounts??? No.58516
aesir  2008-11-21 14:25:18 ( ID:s3bbpyofedh )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I have installed the latest evaluation version of TMPGEnc on a Win XP Pro system, with a 8800GT card and nVidia drivers v180.48. Under the administrator account, it has no problem identifying the CUDA capable card and using it. However if I log on with a limited user account then running TMPGEnc gives a "insufficient geforge version" message, specifying that CUDA needs v178.13 drivers and above. Is this a bug?


tkrave  2008-11-21 19:51:07 ( ID:lgrl8ryjzyl )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I don't think it's a bug; the system requirements say that you need to run it under an administrator account.


aesir  2008-11-23 20:06:34 ( ID:doo.2pjlztm )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

That's something maybe they should look into, I am interested in buying this for the company I work for, but I cannot allow users to logon to workstations with admin level access accounts, which is common logic I suppose. I don't think it would be so difficult as to make it possible to run under limited user accounts.



Question - Save Layout for Subtitles No.58511
Howard Pasternack  2008-11-19 22:00:11 ( ID:pjwfaqlwora )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Is possible to save a layout for subtitles using Tmpgenc 4.0. There are ADD and DELETE buttons in the layout editor, but they don't seem to anything.


tkrave  2008-11-21 19:04:04 ( ID:lgrl8ryjzyl )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

When I click on Add layout or Delete layout it DOES do something.

Clicking Add layout adds a new layout. By default it will be called "05: Layout #5". You can then edit the layout to whatever you want. Then, whenever you add a new subtitle, you can select Layout #05 from the Layout dropdown menu.

The problem is that the layout doesn't get saved. Once I close Tmpgenc and then reopen it, the layout is gone. I tried the ADD routine using both Layout #05 and a custom name, and in neither is the layout available in another session.


tkrave  2008-11-24 19:21:29 ( ID:lgrl8ryjzyl )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

It only saves the layout for that particular project. So if you start a new project, you'll have to recreate your layouts.


old-hack  2009-01-07 19:58:35 ( ID:xlaelkhtbnr )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Demux the chapters information from your DVD or Blu-ray. Strip out the chapter names so only the time and text is left. Save it as a text file. Rename the text file moviename.subtitle. Then select edit and import subtitles to bring in your subtitle list.

Hi,
Anyone knows of plans to support CUDA for AVCHD input files? Badaboom is already doing it.

thanks in advance

Question - Dolgy Digital audio - no sound when played on PC No.58506
Martin_Edney  2008-11-18 19:13:33 ( ID:rxyz68aikh. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I've created a "DVD Standard MPEG-2" file using TMPGEnc 4.0 Express, with the audio set to Dolby Digital. When I play this file on the PC using Windows Media Player, there is no audio, but there is audio when I use VideoLAN.

I encoded this file onto a DVD using TMPGEnc DVD Author 2, and found that the DVD plays fine (with sound) in a DVD player, but there is no sound when the DVD is played on the PC using Windows Media Player. Again playing it with VideoLan gives audio. TMPGEnc DVD Author's Simulation screen also played without sound.

The same PC can play commercial DVDs that have Dolby Digital audio without problem, again using Windows Media Player, so I don't think the problem here is the standard "missing AC3 codec" problem. This wouldn't be a problem, as I can just use VideoLAN on my PC, but I also need the PC to play on other PCs where VideoLAN cannot be installed, so I have to be able to get files playing with sound using Windows Media Player.

Is there something non-standard in the Dolgy Digital audio that TMPGEnc 4.0 Express produces?

Thanks.


myself  2008-11-28 05:49:09 ( ID:uexq2jhhhql )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

This could be about decoder, may be your output file needs other codecs to be decoded by WMP or viceverse, try to update Directshow to the latest version.
good luck
