I just bought and install this product. I select everything and pick start output. After 30 seconds i will get the error. I have uninstalled and reinstalled. I have the anti-virus program and windows firewall turned off.
I've been a licensed TMPGenc user since at least ver 2.5 but I don't think I'll be using this new version 5 unless they make alternate skins available. The change in colors and the ridiculously larger and garish icons are so visually distracting and confusing that I don't even know what to do from screen to screen -- and this is from someone with hundreds of hours of experience in version 4, which is probably not too different in the nuts&bolts.
The GUI of this product is really horrible. I hope you guys can do something about it. I won't be using version 5 as long it gives me a headache to look at.
For me, the GUI is not a dealbreaker...I'm actually a bit shocked you dislike it that much. I personally had no problems using TVMW5. There's a bit of a learning curve in timeline mode, since they've never done anything like it before, but other than that, I don't see how you could be confused; everything other than the timeline is setup very much like 4.0 XPress.
I believe that's sort of a "rating" where the level will be higher for videos that have been watched more. Thus, you can organize videos by how popular they are.
IMHO software CPU based encoding is always as good or better than using CUDA or even Sandy Bridge. The only thing CUDA and Sandy bridge offers is speed.
After simply cutting out a short part out a Blu-ray .m2ts file, how can I tell TMPGEnc Video Mastering Works 5 to simply export the edited file without the cut out part? Does it have to re-encode it for hours?
If this can happen by setting the Output format to be exactly the same as the original .m2ts file, where can *all* original file's properties be viewed so that they can be entered correctly, is there no simpler way to instruct the program to make no other changes, just cut out the small part out of the file as edited?
That way the operation should take as long as it takes to copy paste the original file more or less. Can this be done?
Thank you for your reply. I have tried to cut out a small portion out of a 30GB Blu-ray .m2ts file without success using videoredo, tssniper, h264_ts cutter, and tsMuxeR. They are just too buggy for the end result to be OK.
Any suggestions as to another one I can still try?
TMPGEnc MPEG Editor 3 and TMPGEnc Authoring Works 4 have smart rendering. As long as your Blu-ray is MPEG-2 encoded and conforms to the official specs, it will not be re-encoded except for the edited parts.
I'm trying to find a capable video editing program.
I need these features:
import and edit wtv files (both h264 & mpeg streams)
output them as wtv files
preserve closed captions
cut commercials
open two (or more - but at least two) videos simultaneously in order to cut and paste frames from one video to another.
Can any of the TMPGEnc do these things? If not, can you point me in the right direction?
TAW4 can import MPEG-2 wtv files and cut commercials, but it cannot output as wtv since this is a program for making DVDs, Blu-rays, and DivX Ultra.
None of the TMPGEnc products can output wtv files nor can they import h.264 wtv. TMPGEnc products with a cut-editor can cut commercials and combine two or more videos in any way you want, though not through copy and paste; it's more a process of splitting clips and then arranging the pieces.
Check out a program called "Videoredo." I have it alongside of Masterworks 5. It can output wtv files, and it has an auto-detect commercials function that edits them out automatically. It can also convert to other output types, but I like the options available in Masterworks 5 for converting. To cut and paste frames of one video to another I think you need a dedicated video editing program (like Sony Vegas), but they do not typically make good converting programs.
Good luck
I just upgraded from TMGEnc. However, where it used to take seconds to import a file to work on (.avi, .mkv, .mpg, etc), it now takes almost 30 seconds for each file to come in. Is there a setting I need to adjust? Thanks!
I purchased the upgrade to 5, but have not been able to get it to install. Any ideas??? I double click the exe file it goes through the install, then an ugly gray box pops up with message: Install Failed OS--------
Has anyone else run into this error? Am running Quad Xeon 3.4GHz and 4GB RAM - should be enough to make it run. Windows XP Pro
Is this software compatible with XP or is it Windows 7 only??????
XP Pro does not have SP 3, the last update for 64bit XP Por was SP2. This is not a 32bit system.
Got no helpful support with this problem other than that the software does not work on 64bit systems and toght luck. NO REFUND, and now they have blocked the licence on my version 4. This company stinks. They are useless and have a bad product with no support.
DO NOT PURCHASE THIS PRODUCT FOR A 64BIT SYSTEM. IT DOES NOT WORK.
I'm not sure exactly why you are having issues with your particular install attempt and perhaps, by now you've solved it. I just want to let everyone know that I've been using TMPGEnc products for years now; TMPGEnc 2.5 all the way up to VMW 5 and including the DVD creating tiltes. All of these run just fine under 64Bit OS's from Microsoft. I urge everyone to stop blaming OS and software vendors for the users inability to READ software and system requirements prior to purchasing and installing them. 99.9% of all computer problems start between the Keyboard and the chair while the remaining happen honestly.
Hallo,
Is this possible with this software to get a 25P MPEG2 file from a source 24P MKV file by speeding up the source stream - NOT by adding a duplicate frame.
(and to get a 24P MKV movie from a 25P source by slowing down)
