hi there. In converting 2 different avi files i¡ve experience this error.
The file size is 600-700 MB in size and abuot 65-70 min. in length. But when i convert the file using the wizard it tells me that the new file size is apr. 2500 MB or 350 % the capacity of the disk space.
Can anyone tell me what the problem is ???
hey kalleboy,
well the difference is if your trying to convert 2 videos or just 1.. A 600-700mb movie usually goes into from about 800mb upto 1.4gb... so it depends on what movie you are going also... and the resolution is a key.. its not a problem.. its just that your trying to make a divx coded avi into not that big.. and its not going to happen.. its not a problem you have, you just have to know what its going to be before you convert it.. WhiTeRuM
i've just converted my asf file to mpeg. except, i noticed that there are some blurry, spotty areas because the quality of the picture is not very good. is there a software that i can use to fix up the picture to get good quality mpeg? thanks.
The only real way of inproving the quality is to re-encode the asf file to mpeg but use a higher bitrate, the quality of a file is directly related to the bitrate used to make the file and of cource the quality of the source file...
Hi,
I'm relatively new in DVD to Mpeg conversion. I'm using the conversion to SVCD, but I read that CDV will get best results compared to SVCD.
How can I get a template to convert to CDV format?
That isn"t necessarily true, with cvd useing the same bitrate as svcd you get slightly better image quality but you actually loose about 25% of your resolution which distracts from the quality, but if you want to make your own cvd template just load in the "svcd template" and change the resolution to 352 by 480 then click "save" in the bottom right corner and name the template and you have a cvd template....
Turned out you have to pull out the audio first, then encode to mpeg using the divx file as the video source and the audio file you created as the audio source...
Hi again, Thanks to Minion I was able to fix my prior problem with the error message, but now the VCD won't work in my DVD player. I know that my player plays VCDs, I have before, but when I insert this one in it says it can not read the disc. I am using Nero, for the first time, a burning software. I have used Adaptec Easy CD Creator before, and the VCD it produced worked fine in my DVD player. Anyone have any answers, please let me know. Thanks, Emily
I don"t see why It wouldn"t play if it was burned properly unless your dvd/vcd player is really picky and the mpeg was out of compliance, I guess you can try the other burning software and see if that is were the problem is....
Also check www.vcdhelp.com - DVD players list to see what brand of CD are compatible with your player ... not all brands work on certain players ... mine (Sony DAVS300) is very picky for instance and only plays 5 or 6 different brands .. fortunately for me one of them is a cheapy one from Argos 100 for 30 quid
Hi, When I try to split a file under 'Source Range' in TMPGEnc, I can enter the starting and ending frames I am wanting to encode, and in the bitrate section I am entering CD-R 80 minite(VCD/SVCD), then I specify the file name and OK to create a new file in that name, but when it goes to the transfer screen an error message comes up as 'Can't load "P3Package.dll"'. Please, does anyone know what I am doing wrong. Thanks, Emily
Recently I have recorded some live piano music with my camcorder. Then I noticed that after encoding with TmpgEnc the sound was very thin and distorted (as if it is too loud). The problem is only in the mpg-file as the sound of the AVI-file is good. I followed the advice on this board and used SCMPX and TOOLAME as external encoders in TmpgEnc. But TOOLAME gave no improvement and SCMPX resulted in a sort of beeps and no clear sound. I reduced the audio volume via normalizing to 50% but no improvement. I left the sample rate at 48 kHz (instead of 44 kHz), only a very small improvement. I tried 128 and 224 kbps: no difference.
What have I done wrong? Do you need to setup these external encoders with some input data and how do you do that? Is it necessary to split up the video and audio first?
I'm having the same trouble with piano. Very nice recording until I go through TMPG to VCD. Noticable ringing/buzzing in the audio after encoding. Same experimenting with normalizing, etc. Also tried drastically reducing the level of the audio before going into TMPG: no improvement. I don't know what to do.
Follow-up. I found the solution for my problem: I needed to switch my input audio sample rate to 44.1K which is the sample rate of the VCD format, rather than 48K which was the default for my other software. Sounds OK now.
Can anyone help, when I split a file and output it to MPG, it plays perfectly wll until about halfway through the file, then the sound goes off? Is this a usual problem? My PC has a Pentium III processor running at 800Mhz with 256 Mb of RAM.
i have an identical problem, please let me know how you fixed it?!
i have a P3 800 mhz fast all around.
I got a SVCD and tried editing it and when i cut it and listen to the output file, the movie plays fine but the last 10 mins or less the audio cuts out
Has anyone successfully converted mov files to mpeg with tmpg? There is a plugin on the web, but I couldn't get it to work--something about module error.
I have used the DVD2SVCD and TMPGEnc programs to convert file to VCD. When I play the newly created VCD (using Nero software) on my player, the screen seem to shrink from right to left (about 1/3 to half). What have gone wrong? How to rectify this problem?
I have never used dvd2svcd. However, I had some problems burning vcd's with Nero a while back. Since then, I have been using vcdeasy, which I personally think is the best program for burning vcds or creating vcd images. It's a free program too. Get it here: www.vcdeasy.org. TMPG files work fine in it. Hope that helps.
How do I make my own custom templates. I have a dvd player that will not play minidvd's. It thinks it's a "vcd," and then it goes to a bluescreen. I've found the problem--the audio. I need to create a dvd template that does not use sound greater than 324. I can open mcf templates in worpad, however I cannot save them in the mcf format. What program allows me to edit mcf files?
If You just want to make a template so you don"t have to keep doing all the settings every single time you load a file in well that is easy you first load the "unlock.mcf" template, then adjust the settings to the settings you want the template to have then click the "Save" button in the bottom right corner, then you just name the template and save it and thats it......
Well what"s the problem??You got to make 3 files one 720 by 480 one 176 by 112 and one 96 by 64,Then put them in the Jacket-P Folder,What kind of files are you encodeing?What"s not working?I don"t know much about dvd-rom but Tmpgenc shouldn"t have a problem encodeing to those resolutions..
