I've been having a problem lately with tmpgenc 2.58 (plus)...I load a movie to encode(DVD format)and when I click start I get a message that says "write error occured at address 77f52109(sometimes #77f51024)of module 'ntdll.dll'with 00000000"....I've tried to change priority of "direct show" & "AVI VFW compatibility reader" in the environmental setting and neither doesn't work. The movie is NOT corrupted,I know.....maybe I'm not changing the settings far enough? help me out please! Oh,I also get an "invalid point operation" message at the end of the encodings when I DO get it to work...can somebody give me some feedback on these issues please??
K, having read all these messages at all the threads, I figured it was time to find a solution. Á solution, cuz it might not work for everyone. Think it depends on the diff used codecs in the movies.
What I did to get rid of the "ntdll.dll"-error.
I used a Xvid movie (being 8mile).
Opened VirtualDub, saved the .wav file. Renamed the .wav to .mp3 (cuz it's still compressed) and decoded it to .wav with MusicMatch (seems to be the fastest)
Then I set -> audio, to -> no audio. Set ->video, to ->direct stream copy.
And saved the video file.
Then I loaded the new video file, and set ->audio to ->wav audio and selected the wav-file created with MM.
Started frame serving it to TMPGenC and pointed it to the .vdr.avi file.
TADAAA.......error gone.
All that re-saving the Video and Audio wasn't necessary.
Why didn't you just load up the XVID AVI in Virtualdub and frameserve straight to TMPG as it was or just use Virtualdub to convert the audio to a wav and load it directly into TMPG.
I downloaded a compressed AVI, When I tried to convert AVI into a VCD format (MPEG-1) the video was choppy and not fluid. I found that breaking it into both Video and Audio and converting those files into a VCD format (MPEG-1) works a little better than direct convertion. The problem I'm running into is the video is still not fluid... its choppy (not as bad as before). I'm still hacking my way through TMPGEN, does anyone out there have any ideas or tricks to correct this. Any help would be great. Thanks in Advance for any help.
When I try to encode my audio and convert the frequency using toLame and SSRC in TMPGen. When I hit the Start button, I get a error message "TMPGEnc.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows. You will need to restart the program." I am running Windows 2000. It also tells me an error log is being created. What is going on? Where is this error log?
The error Log is Part of your Opperateing systems error reporting system, read your User manual...Maybe try useing a seperate audio encoder or not useing "Toolame" & "SSRC"....
I have saved a project that I was coverting to vcd. But when I go to open the project then I hit the start button to continue it says that the file already exists do I want to overwrite. No, I don't want to overwrite it took hours to get it to the point where I am at. How do I continue from where I left off?
What exactly do you mean by "How do I continue Were I left Off"???? if you started to encode a File and you stopped encodeing for some reason you have to start over again...Once you start a encodeing Project you can not stop it and start were you left off......

I have a movie called "The Gift". It is 700mb and the video is Divx3 Low-Motion, and the sound is MPEG-1 Layer3. The movie is 112min long.
Problem 1 - TMPGEnc will not convert the sound. The picture converts to a vcd file fine, but no sound. No error, just no sound.
Problem 2 - I used VirtualDub to get a wav of the sound but when using TMPGEnc to combine the sound with the original avi file the sound was out of sync and I can't find an easy way to correct this.
Problem 3 - In Environmental Setting (VFAPI plug-in), the DirectShow Multimedia File Reader is set to priority -1. If I make this any higher TMPGEnc will freeze immediately.
Problem 4 - I choose a bitrate of 750kbs so that I could fit the entire movie on one 80min CDR and TMPGEnc indicated the output file would be 790mb, however it came out over 1gig. I have tried samples with various bitrates and they all come out the same size no matter what bitrate I use (?). It's as though TMPGEnc ignores my choice of bitrate. I am using MPEG-1 Video-CD (non-standard) as the Stream type.
1. Yeah, that's nearly normal if you convert some AVIs with VBR encodet Sound.
Try a modified Version of VirtualDub to extract the Sound (VirtualDubMOD).
2. See 1
3. Maybe you have a conflict between some Codecs. If all is correct, TMPGEnc will not freeze.
4. That's a Problem with TMPGEnc 2.59. Use an older or newer Version for Multiplexing Non-Standard VCD.
> Any suggestions?
Yes! Read the Board! None of your Questions is new.
Try useing the "Clip Frame" and "Video Arrange method" settings in the "Advanced settings" ,You can add Boarders to the Top and bottom of the screen so the Frame doesn"t get Cut off By the TV Screen....
Actually, when you clip the frame, the frame doesn't get clipped. How do I make it so I don't clip anything? Also, TMPGEnc is acting very strange. First, when I clicked on the AVI file for video/audio source, it says it was unsupported! It worked in the past and I can play the source files. When I tried again, it only worked for the video source while the audio source is blank and the output is a m1v file. Argh! When I finally get it to work after a few tries, TMPGEnc closes automatically, or it freezes or it just won't encode or, it encodes the first frame and the rest are black leaving only the audio!!!
Well it seems that you are asking the Impossible ,You want to change the image so you can see the Subtitles But not change the image ,this Just can not be done you have to take the good with the bad...You can use the "Video arange Method" to add boarders without squishing the Image it just makes the image a little smaller with Boarders on the top and bottom..You can"t Move the subtitles so they are higher on the screen or anything like that, it just can not be done....as for the "Unsupported" message you can usually fix this By raiseing the Priority of the "Direct Show File Reader" in the "Vfapi Plugins" to "2"...
Yes, how do I add borders to the bottom (and maybe left and right)? I tried selecting "center" but then the characters in the video seemed squashed. Same with "center (keep aspect ratio)". I'm making an SVCD for my friend so it is 480x480. I hope it works on her player. Is making an SVCD/VCD for a friend allowed?
You seem to be going about things wrongly here. Surely the subtitles can't have been added so far below the T.V screen area so that you can't actually see them. This would be a TV set problem with a severe overscan setting not a problem with the movie.
I take it this movie is full screen in the 4:3 ratio.
If so make sure you set the input aspect ratio to 4:3 525line(NTSC) and the output ratio to 4:3.
Select 'Full screen (keep aspect ratio)' as the 'Video arrange method'
If this still causes the subs to be below the Screen area of a known good working TV then shoot the guy that made this Movie cuz he obviously did not know what he was doing.
If this is the case then select 'center(custom size)' as the 'Video arrange method' using the 'Arrange setting' button in the 'Clip frame' filter and adjust the image as required.
By the way if you are making a SVCD. You will have to set the output frame size as 720x480 first so you can adjust the image without the aspect ratio distortion of SVCD.
Once you are happy with the image simply set it back to 480x480.
Where can I find the diffrences or bug report for NT2000 and Win98. I have noticed that there are things that I can do in the 98 os that I can't do in 2000, when using TMPGenc. An example, when I Simple De-multiplex in 2000 I don't get the whole video however I get it in 98.
hey i'm sort of new to this, but i'm learning fairly quickly. i have ran into one problem, however. after encoding an asf file to mpeg (for vcd)the sound only works about 30 min or so into the movie then stops completely. any help would be appreciated.
Tmpgenc sometimes has Problems with ASF/WMV audio, so you have to extract the audio to a WAV file then use the wav file as the audio source in tmpgenc..To do this you will need a Audio encoder that can extract ASF/WMV audio and decode it to WAV audio...one Good Program for this is called "DB Power AMP", you can download it for free at " http://www.dbpoweramp.com/ " you have to Download the Main Program and the WMA audio codecs,once the program is installed and the Codecs are properly installed you just have to right click on the ASF file and go to "Convert" then choose "Wav" from the conversion menu..this is a Very good audio encoder and there are many codecs that you can download to convert many different formats, just read the instructions carefully on how to install the WMA codecs....
