Where exactly do I have to fill in my serial number to make the programm run after the test period is over?

Go back to the site where you purchased the serial from and you should be able to work it out from there.
As far as I'm concerned if the serial is legit then I can't understand why you don't know the reason you're having this problem because everthing is explained.

I just upgraded to version 3 and the ac3 plugin (from 2.5)
My edit computer does not have an internet connection, this is common sense!
I had to steal a modem from another computer in order to cativate the software, only to find out that I need to do this on a periodic basis, that is not good since I bought the software and I have the license key already.
What is the definition of periodic, once per week, once per month, once per year? if less than once per year, I must get my money back and I will continue to use 2.5 which works excellent. I simply don't have time to install a modem on a regular basis to activate software that I already own!

Same here. After one Day of testing (nad extra installing and removing XP to be able to test it), i'm back to TMPGEnc 2.5.
Periodic Licencing ? How long will this be supported? What to do in a couple of Years? Maybe the company will be gone some day - and then? Throw the software into the Trashcan?
I definatly will not use such restrictive software.

TmpegENC3.0 ... Weekly relicensing? Your kidding, right?

With the new so called "Intenet Viruses" being the new frontier for hackers, you don't have to do anything to get infected except be connected to the Internet.You cannot connect safely to the Internet with a Microsoft product.

My edit computer is my livlihood. It has never been connected to the Internet ... never will be.

I hope you folks at TMPGEnc Net change your policy because I can't afford to change mine!

Cheers,

I agree, this really stinks. With the quality of this trial not even working, due to expiring one day after I get an e-mail advertising it. How do I know they will be up and running tomorrow? I can't get the trial to even start the first time. I find it hard to trust this quality in the long term.

To be able to try out this new software, you can download a Trial Version, but must have an Internet connection in order to use the functions.
Consider these three points:
(1) In most cases you will have to disable your Firewall !!!
(2) I want to install TMPGEnc Xpress on a different computer which is not connected to the Internet. Why? My video capture computer has NEVER been connected to the Internet, and that is why it is still virus free !!!!
(3) If and when you want to rebuild or re-install Windows, you'd better hope that Pegasys is still in business, online on the Internet, in order to reinstall Xpress.

Sorry Pegasys...After purchasing TMPGenc Plus, DVD Source Creator, and TMPGEnc DVD Author.....You've lost me !!!

When trying to go into the chapter edit cut menu, the DVD author is putting the software on not responding.

This happened after upgrading my processor from 1.7 tot 3.06 Ghz, and changing the videocard (Hercules AIW 9800SE)

Does this sound familiar to anyone ???

I just downloaded the trial version of 3.0 express. As soon as I installed it, it said the 14 day trial was over. Kind of hard to do since it hasn't even been out for 14 days. ANy input ?


Thanks,

Tom

Please verify your computer'calendar settings. On our side we are changing the activation server settings to avoid this kind of problem in the future.

Thank you. I shall try it tomorrow again.

This happened to me too. Now that it has failed, our computers will probably never be able to install it again. (The registry will have a record of the expired trial.)

Is it even worth the effort to try again if this is the quality we can expect?

It works now after a re-install so it appears they have resolved the issue. I would try it again.

One word....NOPE!

It's not fixed! Glad you got it working. I've tried it on different computers, too. Uninstalled, reinstalled, and modified. Nope, not working here.

Two days later, it now works. Can you afford to wait days before you start each project?

Trial still expires upon installing here - so problem not fixed.

Never had TMPG Express installed before.

Pegasus loses my business with this kind of nonsense.


My computer is set to EST for business reasons. I am in PST time zone.

No way I am going to change my time zone for any program!


Good Bye Pegasus!

The Title says it all... My Encoding-Machine is running under Win98SE - very stable, very fast. Too bad, i can't change to TMPGEnc 3.0, not even try it.

2000 pro is a vary stable os and it gives you NTFS so your not limited on file size. 98 is just about obsolite you should think about upgrading

Dear all, Pegasys Inc released TMPGEnc 3.0 XPress. For this occasion, we also open a new BBS where everybody will exchange idea, provide help, constructively disert about XPress or the art of encoding, in a mutual and lawfully respect, and desire to achieve the best. The Pegasys team welcomes you, and wish you a good day at the TMPGEnc 3.0 XPress BBS.

I need to run TMPGEnc automatically everyday to convert some video clips I captured from TV. How could I start it in command line?

Thanks.

Please help me get up to speed. I am standing in for the regular engineer and having to get experience by trial by fire. Using a 2.8Ghz, 1GB RAM, 800FSB PC with Win 2000 and the latest TMPGEnc version as an encoder, we compressed over a dozen MPEGs to 352X240 29,97fps CQ_VBR 90 Layer 2 48000Hz 120kbps. Most of the inidividual projects created a great reduced size file. But about 8 of the compressed MPEGs dropped the last 3.3 sec of audio when we played them. They started at 30.3 and the audio cut off at 27.0. All the video was fine, full 30.3 sec, but silent at the end. As a learning tool, I had downloaded a copy of the TMPGEnc software on a PC at home (Pent II, 266Mhz, 128MB RAM running Win 98 SE). I took the 8 original files home to experiment and the final product was great. Same template was used at both locations. Can anyone explain this? I really need the machine at work to do the job for us. What do I change?

I think a little more detailed info on your actual problem and what you are trying to acheive wouldn't go amiss here.
Also why the hell did you post it as a bug report?

@satelanewsnetwork

Guess the Video was from interlaced Source.

Try this with AVIsynth:

AVISource("neogeo.avi")
BicubicResize(352,240,0,0.6)
v1=selectevery(2,0)
v2=selectevery(2,1)
vid=Interleave(v1,v2).weave()
#vid=Interleave(v2,v1).weave() #don't know the right field order
Return(vid)

This results in a Half-D1 interlaced Video (29.97 fps).
(can't test it here, but it should work)

iwant to convert to 320x480 INTELACE &
2progissive FRAME convert to 1 intelace frame


but TMPGENC convert 29.97P only

Hi,

Everytime I try to open an AVI file I get an error saying that the format is not supported. I have the NIMO codek pack installed and I'm able to watch the movies on my computer. I'm running on windows XP. Does anyone knows whats happening?

Thank you

Try opening TMPGEnc and then go to the Environmental Settings. Under VFAPI plug-in, right click on the number next to "Directshow Multimedia File Reader" and click on "Higher Priority" again and again until that row is at the top of the list. Then, try opening your AVI again.

Hi, everyone. I hope someone may know what's going on here, because I definitely don't. LOL

I have an AVI that I have been attempting to convert successfully for the past 7 hours, and have been failing miserably. I am using TMPGEnc to convert to MPG (or m2v and mp2) so that I can use TMPG DVD Author to output it to DVD. However, every time it converts the AVI, the audio is choppy (it skips every few seconds), even though the video does not. It still ends up lining up with the video, but it hangs for a split second, then stutters, then plays like it should. I've tried so many different fixes that I'm not even sure what I've tried and what I haven't. I've kind of exhausted all of the options I know of, though.

AVI STATS
----------
Video Codec: MP43 (S-Mpeg 4 version 3)
Runtime: 00:02:42 (4,900 fr)
Bitrate: 273 kb/s
FPS: 30.303

Audio Codec: divx (same as wma) (0x0161) DivX Networks
Bitrate: 22 kb/s (11/ch, stereo)

Please let me know if any other info is needed. Any help is VERY much appreciated. Thanks so much!

Just encode the audio to wav first with an audio editor and use that as your source.

Are you sure, you don't have compressed audio? well if not sure why not give a try and do the same procedures you'd made afterwards...
