im trying to convert an avi file to vcd and everything i try keeps making the file size to big to put on 700mb cd-r can someone please help with directions on how to get it to the size i want it to be for this and all other formats
How long is your video? If it's over 74 minutes, it will not fit. The video CD format has a constant video bitrate at 1150kb/sec, so there's no getting around that time constraint. Once you change the bitrate, it will no longer be a valid Video CD.
If you don't care about compliance, you can use the "MPEG Output" button that appears on the right side of the format screen. This will allow you to alter the bitrate and use the bitrate calculator where you can set your target size and it will calculate the bitrate for you. Obviously, the MPEG output button only appears for MPEG formats.
Well, that's too long unfortunately. You will not be able to make a compliant VCD. Does it have to be a VCD? How about converting it to MPEG-4 AVC? It'll be a smaller file size and the quality should remain. Or as Goldstar_one mentioned, just make a DVD and spend a couple bucks more on discs.
Well, again, that material is too long for a VCD. If you're stuck with a CD-R, you have three choices:
1) Cut the material down to 74 minutes in order to make a compliant VCD.
2) Split the movie into two VCD discs, so each disc has 74 minutes or less.
3) Create a non-compliant video that fits on a CD-R.
Personally, I'd do option 3. Use the H.264/MPEG-4 AVC format and cut the bitrate down until the output file is 700MB or less (this may take several tries if you are using a variable bitrate). You won't be able to play it on a VCD player, but it should work fine on a computer.
Or, instead of buying a CD-R or DVD-R, buy a USB thumb drive that's a couple GBs. They aren't too expensive nowadays and you'd be able to save at a higher bitrate.
Hi, i have a .mkv with video h264 audio aac and subs srt and i want convert it to .divx with subtitles embedded in video, with a file .avi i don't have any problem because opens fddshow and then the subtitles and video are encoded togetehr
but with an .mkv the fddshow does not appear and neither the substitles within .mkw and .srt external file appears on video and then cannot embbed the subtitles in video,
You may need to extract the .srt from the mkv beforehand. Once you do, you should be able to import the .srt file using the subtitle filter and it can then be encoded into the video.
There is a program called MKVExtract that should be able to extract the .srt file. It might be kind of old so there might be newer alternatives. http://www.dvd-guides.com/content/view/157/59/
My request is to add the ability to create VOB files for direct DVD burning from TMPGEnc Video Mastering Works 5.
I want to be able to create a DVD straight from VMW5 by outputting VOB files or a VIDEO_TS folder or .iso file that I can burn directly to DVD without having to go to another program to mux the .m2v and .ac3 files into VOB files.
Thanks
For those with discrete video cards on their machine and Intel Sandy Bridge by now you must have noticed that you can not access Hardware encoding for Intel Media SDK. I am not going to architectural explantation but a solution is coming up in near future:
It looks like you would still need an integrated video out on the motherboard since all video is piped through the integrated GPU. See the diagram on this page: http://www.lucidlogix.com/product-virtu1.html
I'm sorry for you....
I'm using TMPGEnc 5 with a core i7 2600k and Lucid Virtu and a Geforce 560Ti but TMPGEnc couldn't use intel Media SDK Hardware...i could only use it in software. For the assistance
Please let us know if your graphic device is enabled on-board ?
You must connect display cable to on-board graphic device.
Please update your graphic card drivers.
.
The monitor and graphic card need to be connected by all means,
in other words Intel media SDK has to be connected to monitor.
That is the meaning of such function.
Please check about this:
*The Intel Media SDK hardware mode requires a CPU using the GPU with
the Sandy Bridge core.
*The use the Intel Media SDK requires the MPEG decoder and Video
encoder settings and a compatible Intel CPU.
So you're outputting from the integrated video and it still won't use hardware encoding?
If you go to Options-->Preferences-->Input/output format list, what does it say for Intel Media SDK (hardware)? Mine has "-" for both input and output which means "present but not usable".
I have no chance of changing that since I do not have an integrated video output on my motherboard, but if you are doing that and still not able to use hardware encoding, then that is interesting.
>In Preference for the intel SDK HArdware I have Present but unusobable
I 'm using encoding with x264 or CUDA I don't use Intel SDK Softwre It's too slow..
I have forget.. I'm using a motherbord ASUS Maximus GENE-Z with Lucid Virtu a Intel Core i7 2600k "Sandy Bridge" and a Graphic Card Nvidia Geforce GTX 560 Ti.
When I'm making a link in Lucid Virtu Software with TMPGEnc I have a lot of error message in TMPGEnc...
Is it possible to create VOB files for direct DVD burning from TMPGEnc Video Mastering Works 5?
I want to frameserve 1080i video from Premiere Pro CS5 timeline into TMPGEnc VMW5 and output VOB files into a VIDEO_TS folder (or .iso file) that I can burn directly to DVD without having to go to another program to mux the .m2v and .ac3 files into VOB files.
Thanks
I have bought a new Imac with Core i7 sandy bridge which has AMD 6970M graphic processor. I have not been able to detect or activate Intel SDK Hardware encoding for H.264.
At this point I am not clear if only grahic chips produced by Intel can utilize this feature.
According to intel forums:
The hardware implementation is installed by the graphics driver and should be under \program files\Common\Intel\MediaSDK\s1\2.0 to ensure the hardware implementation libraries are on your system . libmfxhw32-s1.dll is the Sandy Bridge hardware implementation library.
Also even if the above dll is present the following can prevent the dll from being accessed:
Yes, libmfxhw32-s1.dll is the Sandy Bridge hardware implementation library. If the file is present and can’t be loaded, then there could be a few things that can be going on.
- There’s a discrete card in your system that’s set as the primary video card. This will turn off QSV, and prevent the HW DLL from loading
- The registry values are incorrect which prevents the MSDK dispatcher from finding libmfxhw32-s1.dll
I would assume that only Intel graphics chips can use Quick Sync. How does an i7 have an AMD graphics processor anyway?
I myself cannot use the Intel SDK hardware encoder because I only have discrete graphics on my machine. Kind of annoying that I'd have to buy a new motherboard just to try this thing out.
Just took a look at the imac specs. I see what you're talking about now with the i7 and AMD processors. I think you won't be able to use Intel Hardware encoder since the iMac is using the AMD/Radeon processor to display video; it would need to use the i7's GPU.
Well I have found the solution which is not yet available. This should work for anyone with discrete video card. I am going to post this on its own thread
It depends on your output format. Certain output formats have the option to convert the keyframes into chapters. MKV and MPEG for mobile device formats have this option in the "Other" tab. There might be other formats that have this option, but I haven't checked them all.
Hi. I'm trying to convert an avi to mpeg using mastering works but it won;t recognise the audio, which is a channel ac-3 stream. I presume the format simply isn't supported so i'm wondering is there a workaround or something i can do to change the audio so MW will recognise it. Thanks.
- started i new project with a clip
- then edited it
- then i used some filters
- then clicked on "timline" an choosed my clip for the new timeline
- now i'm in the clip-timeline-editing-mode
- then i added some layer with mosaics
- then i switched to 'format' and choosed my format
-> finally switched to 'encode' and 'start'
Problem: every layer with the mosaics and every change in the timeline-editing-mode were ignored
Is there is hidden 'apply to movie'-button or something.
> Also, is this a legit version of the software or a crack? In the past, there have been bugs and issues that only occur in cracked versions.
Ah, ok. This is a cracked version. I bought TMPGEnc 4.0 XPress and other Software from Pegasys in the past -- just wanted to know if it's worth it to buy or not.
Well I don't think a cracked version will give you an accurate view of the product. Try the trial version; I'm pretty sure you won't have the same issue.
Should work; I'm using a GTX 460.
The Cuda functions should help speed if you add a lot of filters to your video. You can also use it to encode H.264 but it may or may not be faster--depends on how fast your CPU is.
Is it possible to encode 1080i video in VC-1 elementary stream using TVMW5 ?
I understand selecting "Windows Media Video 9 Advanced Profile" produces VC-1 video (and allows for interlaced output), but the output container is always .wmv, with or without audio.
My authoring program (Sonic DVD it) expects .vc1 as (ES) as file format for VC-1 video (SMPTE VC-1 (elementary streams only): AP@L3 and AP@L2 ).
Will simply renaming the xxx.wmv file produced by TVWM5 to XXX.vc1 do the trick ?
Or is a true VC-1 elementary stream a different animal ?
BTW, I noticed that although Microsoft Expression encoder is installed on my computer, TVMW5 only uses the "old" VC-1 implementation, i.e. "WMV9 Advanced Profile".
There is a difference in the produced output:
With Microsoft Expression Encoder, MediaInfo reports:
Format : VC-1
Format profile : AP@L2
Codec ID : WVC1
Codec ID/Hint : Microsoft
Description of the codec : VC-1 - VC-1 Advanced Profile
and with TVMW5:
Format : VC-1
Format profile : AP@L2
Codec ID : WVC1
Codec ID/Hint : Microsoft
Description of the codec : Windows Media Video 9 Advanced Profile
But does that have an impact on the Blu-ray compliance of the produced video stream ?
Impossible with any sofware....You can put your vc1 elementary stream into mkv using graph edit firt with matroska muxer filter or new VLC video player can put it into ps stream using convert option and without any encoding, like direct stream. That's works very well.
Cheers.
It looks like TVMW5 is assuming that the input video uses the full RGB gamut (0-255), and hence, converts to "legal" video (RGB 16-235).
This is causing a problem (at least with some codecs) when the input video is already fully broadcast compliant and needs to be converted without affecting the color/luma values.
This problem occurs e.g. when using Avid's DNxHD codec in .mov containers as input file, to be converted to DVD-compliant MPEG2 files.
The solution would be, like in competitive products, to allow the user specify the color range of the input file (0-255 or 16-235) using a check box box or dropdown list at the "File Import / Clip Properties" page.
