Hello, I have a couple questions. I am trying to take my home movies(lots of them) shot on a Sony camcorder TRV103 digital and capture them onto my computer(Windows XP, only couple years old) and convert into a SVCD so we can watch them on the DVD player. OK, so I capture them into WMM2.1 as a DV-AVI file, clean them up or whatever I want to do with them and then resave them as a DV-AVI file again. Now mind you the original file off of the camcorder is well I call it RAW. If I look at it in the viewer in WMM2.1 it looks good, but when in WMP10 has lots of vertical lines. This is not my problem, I figure it is because of the interlacing problem in WMP. Ok so I take the DV-AVI file and i put it into TMPGEnc to change it to a MPEG-2 file. If I skip this part and go straight to Nero to burn the AVI file, it looks like crap. So I am trying to figure out how to do this so that my SVCD's look at least like the quality of a VHS tape which isn't bad. I am new to this, and have looked for help on all kinds of sites and have done at least twenty tests on the same video clip and burned at least 7 cds with tests. I found that I need to set my project on interlacing, and the on Bottom field ( B ) with an aspect ratio of 4:3 525 line NTSC, with Full screen (keep aspect ratio). The Detect Scene Change is set and I have it on highest quality. I don't really mess too much with the other settings. Then I encode a 2 min file of my kids swing dancing and it takes about 30 mins. When I put it in my DVD player it kind of looks ok, but every time they move it gets pixelated. My son has writing on the back of his shirt but it looks like one of those mosaic settings on a camcorder or where they bleep it out of a show to protect the innocent. So my questions are, what am I doing wrong? I would love to be able to put my movies on SVCD for enjoyment and then store the tapes away for safe keeping, but it is really hard to watch a pixelated movie. Someone please help me, I have spent hours on this so far just testing this little clip. I would love to be able to just do it. Is VCD quality any easier to create? I can't do DVD cuz I don't have a DVD burner. Sorry this is so long of a post but I felt as if I needed to explain what I have done so far to get to this point. Thank you for all your help!!!

I own a media company, and we have a need to have NTSC MPEG2 Clips converted to PAL. I need someone with some good expertise because the final product will be for mobile phones. Will be able to pay per clip converstion. Please send me an e-mail if you think you can perform these tasks. Best regards, Jason

On Mobile Phones, there is no thing like PAL or NTSC...

I am currently starting a buisness i need straight answer as to which program is the best to use for encoding CCE or this. And Which takes the most time the files we will be encoding are 40gb Quicktime files. Please advise

CCE is a lot faster, but you have to know exactly what you'r doing if you wish a real good quality.

I'm wondering why.
If I select the language to be English in the program and I trying to load in a MPG file, it says the MPG cannot be openned.

However, if I change TMPGEnc to use other language, I can load in the MPG file no problem.

Can Anyone tell me why?

when i convert my video clips the picture quality reduces drastically. is there something i can do to rectify this?

Give some information about the files you're converting and the options you're using.

Hi
I am trying to convert a XVid AVI file and WAV sound file, into a SVCD file but when I playback the converted file the video motion isn't fluid, it hubbles (or "pauses") about every second.
The AVI file is 1,01 Gb and the Wav is 1,16Gb. Could it be the size? I converted a, smaller, DivX file to SVCD with NO problem at all.
Any ideas?
Gratefull for your help.

Maybe there is Framerate-Trouble.
Or you have converted the Video from NTSC <-> PAL with TMPGEnc - this always results in jerky playback

when I start to encode I get an error, Index of scan Line is out of range, what is going on?

i have a movie file that is 640x272... when i play it in my dvd player it doesnt show up in the middle of the screen.. it shows up at the top..

.. i was wondering why its not showing up in the center. when i view it on my computer it shows up fine but there i cannot figure out how to make it work on my dvd player. i have used 1:1 // also 16:9 // i set the motion search precision to highest(best quality)..

can someone please help...

thank you

640x272 is far away from the standards (720x480 in NTSC). And you can not compare a PC to a standalone.
Your Player is showing you, what you tell it to show: Only a part of the full screen.

Hi
If you are using the Wizard, in the third or fourth step there is a button named "Expert". Click it (if you're not, just click the "Setting" button on the bottom of the screen). Go to the "Advanced" tab and in the "Video Arrange Method" change to "Center - Keep Aspect Ratio".
This should solve it.

Why am I getting an error message every time I try to encode?

It says, "Can not load P3Package.dll"

The P3Package.dll file is located in the same directory as the TMPGEnc.exe file.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks.

im having the same problem and trying to look at the reply but i dont see it saying anything but repeating you're message..

this is my first time on this site i typed the error code in google and it came to this site so if i am reading reply wrong please let me know

If you are using a shortcut to launch tmpgenc than it is possible that it is not set to start in the proper directory. Go to the directory that the actual program file is located in and launch it from there. If that works, edit the start in line on the properties for your shortcut, so that it starts in the directory that the program (and the dll) is in, that way it will be able to locate all its dependent files. If this isn't it, it could be that there is another progam using that dll, or maybe another instance of tmpgenc running in the background. Use the task manager to shut down all nonessencial programs, if that works start them agin on at a time until you find the problem. Hope this helps.
