I have a 1.3G file that I am trying to cut to fit on two 80 minute CDs. I used edit in MPEG tools and managed to set the start as 0 and the end as 1 hour 18 minutes for the first one. But it will not let me set the start as 1 hour 18 minutes and the end as last. I also notice in the scroll bar at the bottom of the edit screen is blank. Are there any options that I need to turn on/off in order to make this bit work. I always seem to have trouble with this part in the edit screen. If I press the play button the movie plays OK, but I can not use the scroll bar to move to the frame I want to. As soon as I click on the scroll bar the movie stops and the marker doesn't move with the mouse.
The Tmpgenc Editor can be buggy at times...Download this: "http://www.marumo.ne.jp/mpeg2/m2v_vfp-0.6.42.lzh" it has a Simple Mpeg editor that you can use to Cut Mpeg files, hopefully this will work better than the Tmpgenc editor...Cheers

I have many MPEG2 files, all were enconded in TMPGEnc. I'm sure, that they differ only in length. Here's description of one of them from utility AVIcodec:
File : 87 MB (86 MB), duration: 0:04:58, type: MPG, 1 audio stream(s), quality: 72 %
Video : 78 MB, 2200 Kbps, 25.0 fps, 352*288 (16:9), MPG2 = MPEG 2 (SVCD/DVD), Supported
Audio : 7.98 MB, 224 Kbps, 48000 Hz, 2 channels, 0x51 = Mpeg-1 audio Layer 2 [0xc0], Supported
I need to merge them into one single file. When I try to do this in TMPGEnc, several files report this error:
File _.mpg is not compatible with other MPEG file. Why ? Every file was encoded the same way.
Well it's no good just posting the specs of one file. You need to post the other file you are trying to merge with it so we can compare and see what the problem is.
If you know any other utility, which can tell me more about that file, I can try it. Uploading whole file somewhere or sending via e-mail would be problem. Maybe a few bytes from header will do. Just ask.
I have had Problem mergeing files with Tmpgenc also, even files that are exactly the same...I would sudgest useing a Real Mpeg editor like "Mpeg2VCR" you can download an older full version at h**p://www.apachez.net in the tools section....
When i try to convert a file using this program i get the error "Read error occured at address 00011EE3 of module "TMPGEnc.exe" with 911F9005". Are thre any solutions to this? I'm trying to convert a .d2v video file and .wav audio file into a NTSC VCD file, although this has happened before.
What are good DVD burning apps to use with TMPGEnc? I have DVDIt at the moment but are also interested in getting TMPGEnc DVD Author. I have downloaded Cheetah DVD burner as well.
The moment I heard of TMPGenc DVD Auth I bought it, based on my good opinion of the TMPGEnc Plus encoder. I have made more than 50 dvds up to now without any major problem. I keep to simple menues. I tried the moving menues just to see (I don't need that). Tried to specify AC3 audio once for fun. Have backuped some old bilingual VHS (work nicely). My burner is a Sony I got last April (work well with the burning engine included with TMPGenc DVD Auth).
There are regular updates of the programs.
The forum is not really busy but this prove the good quality of the program.
The authoring program that came as a freebee with the burner I bought last April (along with other junk) was a pure waste of time and nerve.
Good luck !

I am trying to encode a TGA sequence and getting nothing but trouble.
The trouble is what I found over and over again on this board, slight jerky motion, only on interlaced frames. When playing in WMP (Windows Media Player) its so slight you can barely tell its there, the second it hits my DVD Player its crazy screwed.
The source has Interlaced and Non Interlaced frames in it, basically I am writing them out from a Velocity (editing system) some of the video is coming from TV some from film, some from game cinematics, so basically its a miserable source and there is nothing I can do about that.
So I am treating the whole thing as though its non interlaced.
Its acting like the fielding is bad, but I have tried every combination I can till my head is spinning, interlaced and non with source and output as well as reversing the fields back and forth.
Summing, NonInterlaced works like a charm, its only the interlaced stuff thats screwed... I simply dont get it. I actually had this working a few months back but didnt save any settings and havent played with it in that time so I forgot it all anyhow.
You can't mix interlaced and non interlaced Video and encode it in progressive Mode.
You have two choices:
Deinterlace the interlaced Part and encode progressive.
Encode all the Stuff in interlaced Mode (the better choice).
Maybe you should just use an area based or adaptive de-interlacer such as the ones that come with AVIsynth or Virtualdub.
These work by looking for interlace lines in each individual frame and therefore will only de-interlace the frames needed to be de-interlaced. You can then simply frame serve the material to TMPG.
Encoding all as interlaced should work as the field order is correct. If it doesn't then maybe you should try frame serving through AVisynth or Virtualdub anyway to see if it handles it any better.
Correction:
>Encoding all as interlaced should work as the field order is correct
Encoding all as interlaced should work as long as the field order is correct.
OK, so my DVD has a main menu and 3 sub-menus. For some reason, when you open my third sub-menu on a standalone DVD player, you can't select/click any of the buttons! For some reason, however, it works on a DVD-ROM drive! I think this may have something to do with compatibility, when i was building the DVD imagine it said "compatiblity: pc-based software dvd players"... is this the problem? if so, how do i change it to work on a standalone? if not, what is the problem?? any help would be greatly appretiated!! thankyou!!!
Hi, I just got a new home theater [I had a multi format read-everything no name DVD player before]. Most of my SVCDs work fine - I encoded those back at my parent's house. And now I can't encode a single working SVCD at my computer using the same exact software and same CD-Rs. I don't know if it's a burner, or TMPGEnc, or Nero but here's what happens. I burn the 1st part of the movie on a disk and that disk usually reads fine on my theater which is by the way Panasonic SC-HT700 and then the 2nd part of the movie encoded and burned in the same exact way doesn't [there's digital lines all over the screen and sound gets distorted - unwatchable]. I just don't know what the problem is - 1st part reads fine but it's always the 2nd CD that's choppy [same exact DivX]. Help anyone?
It sounds like an error in your Mpeg4 codec, Maybe try re-installing the Mpeg4 codec or installing "FFDShow Decoder" and configure it to decode Mpeg-4 files...Cheers
That encoder seems to only be For Mac and allmost all encoders use an adaptive GOP structure cuz all Gop structures vary somewhat depending on the source file, That encoder doesn"t seem like anything really special and it doesn"t seem to have any thing really that much different than other High end encoders but being on the Mac Platform I guess we will never know...Cheers
I have been using TMPGenc perfectly for months, then one day it took 30 minutes to just START the app (disc drive spinning like crazy, 100% cpu load). Once loaded it would take another 30 mins to load a DVD or MPEG file. After that processing was normal again, around 14 hrs for 90 min of video.
Any ideas why the excessive load and browse times? I've deinstalled and reinstalled to no avail. No further hardware changes to the PC.
Well if it is Takeing a Long time to load Mpeg2 or Vob files then i would go to "options" to "enviromental settings" to "vfapi plugins" and Raise the Priority or the "CRI Mpeg2 decoder" to say "2"...But if that doesn"t help then I would do it the Proper way and Not load the Vob or Mpeg2 files into Tmpgenc, Instead I would use "DVD2AVI 1.76" to Frameserve the Mpeg2 video to Tmpgenc, This is Much Faster than Loading the Mpeg2/Vob files directly into Tmpgenc and I seems to get better results this way....But if you do not want to learn a better way which a Lot of Poeple don"t you can try installing this Mpeg2 decoder for Tmpgenc:"http://www.marumo.ne.jp/mpeg2/m2v_vfp-0.6.42.lzh" I think it is better than the one that comes with Tmpgenc and it comes with a simple Mpeg editor...Cheers
