Hi,
just used the downsampling feature. Had an impute film (m2v) of 2:50 hrs. Now TMP started the compression (Q50 2500-3500) but reaching 100% the film had been cut at 1:34 Hrs / 2,xx GB .. what did I wrong why didnt it covert the entire film ? help by mail - thanks !!

I don"t know why it didn"t convert the whole film but What I do to encode "m2v" files and allways works is use "DVD2AVI" to make a d2v project file and encode that with Tmpgenc, I have never had a single problem useing this method for encodeing mpeg video files......

I assume the problem is file size limit based on FAT32 filesystem.

To make a file above 2g size, you have to use NTFS.

4gb is the Fat 32 limit 2gb is the Fat 16 limit, and not many systems run on a Fat16 system anymore..I think the bitrate is a bit high if you are doing a svcd then you are going to have to put the 3 hour movie on 4-6 cd-r"s...

These are the pics I got for you to see how bad the quality is .. maybe you can tell me why this happend?

Those are Interlaceing artifacts, and you will get them with most interlaced sources, you correct them by going to "settings" to "advanced settings" and double click in the "De-Interlace filter" then a window will pop-up with you movie displayed in it , you go to were the lines are really noticeable then go through the filters untill you find the one that looks the best, usually the "Even Field" gives good results but it depends on the field order of your file.......

Hi people!
There are so many options to specify in TMPGenc! How do I know which option is correct! For instance, how can I specify the correct Video Source Setting when I don't have that information! I have a source file (MPEG, that's all I know) and I just want to convert it to SVCD format. No quality loss, if possible.
I know I can use Nero for this, but whe I do audio gets out of sync (about half a second).

i tried to turn a AVI file made with the tmd codec into and MPEG and it just had a black screen once it finished, the sound was there but no picture was present. I was wondering if there was a way around this problem?

I"m not sure what format "TMD" is but you can try to raise the priority of the "direct show file reader" this works with Direct show formats like divx/mpeg4, go to "options" to "enviromental settings" to "Vfapi plugins" and raise the "Direct show File Reader" to "2"...

tmpgenc stiil encode my avi to mpeg2 very bad
it worked before untill i swicth from tmpg 12 to tmpg2.53 2.57
if i reinstall tmpg12 again no difference


i tried all templates none of them worked

when is ready with encoding movie stutters skips or shocks

i read some where that it can be your o.s with the sofware that can give this tmpgenc problems ... like kazaa .. true/false

That skipping jumping effect could be caused by encodeing to a differant frame rate than your source file,You should only encode avi files with a frame rate of "23.9/24/25/29.9/30/FPS"if your avi file has a different frame rate and you encode it with tmpgenc you will get that jumpy skipping effect....

but the movie i encode is an 23.97 to 25 fps

I use Windows XP, Premiere 6.0, Avisynth and Tmpgenc, newest release. After converting to SVCD there is no sound. What's the problem?

You have to make sure that the audio in your source file is Wav format, you can extract the audio to wav from your source file then encode that to mp2 audio then multiplex it with you svcd/mpeg2 file.....

Has anyone had any luck using TMPGenc as a bridge between Vegas Video 3.0 and pinnacle impression?

Yes I tried but impression will not accept the mpeg file, tried different settings but nothing.
If you where able to import something to Impression please let me know.
Thanks

What is MOTION SEARCH PRECISION? how does it work?

Hi,
I have encoded several .avi files using tmpgenc. I burn things with Nero. However, on all of them, Nero is not recognizing the files I have encoded as being vcd-type files. How do I fix this? I tried to bypass the standards (Nero asked if I wanted to re-encode, bypass, or cancel), but then my DVD player can't read the CD. It tries, I get sound, but the picture is all screwed up. Anyway, in short, how to I make a Nero-burnable VCD so I can watch it on my DVD player?

Thanks
Goldie

you should encode the stream again throug tmpg in the right format pal or ntsc
and this should fix this problem

Yeah, you need check with PAL or NTSC first.
For example, Europe uses PAL standard, USA uses NTSC standard.

Nero might have some restriction to accept MPEG format, but
choose "bypass" as you did.

Also, you should check if your DVD player can play VCD (I hope you did already).

after opening the avi file, make sure you are loading the proper template = vcd mpeg-1; select either PAL or NTSC depending on where you are.

Many burning programs have issues with files encoded by tmpgenc. Nero should be okay. Could be that your DVD player does not play VCDs; or you may have to use a cd-rw disc instead of a cd-r disc (some players read only cd-rw).....you'll have to experiment. If all fails, you might try the free VCDEasy to burn or to creat the bin & cue files which you can then feed into Nero. See vcdeasy.org.

good luck,
leralph

Help! Please tell me what that means and how i can fix it "index of scan line is out of range (272) "

thank you very much

Hi Ya Folks...

Just performed a fresh reinstall of Win2000 with all relevenat apps and codec. But now TMPGEnc doesn't list my 2 DivX codec when using the "Output To Avi" Option. All it shows are the standard window codec...

Any ideas about fixing this... ?


Happy Huntng...

I had this problem once well actually it would only show some of the codecs and not all of them, and I just re-downloaded Tmpgenc and installed it..But I don"t know if it will work on Your system but you can try it..

Nope, already tried a reinstalle of TMPGEnc & no joy :(

Another quick question. I live in the USA. My DVD player plays commercial DVDs made in the NTSC format. When I go to encode an AVI file with TMPG sometimes the program says that the AVI file is in PAL format. Now when I make an MPG to play on my American DVD player I have, in the past, used an NTSC template.I thought that it was necessary to do this so that the VCD I would burn would play on my DVD player. After reading a lot of these pages today I am no longer certain that I am doing it correctly. Can anyone clear this up?

A Pal movie encoded to the "NTSC" Template will cause the file to have jumpy and out of sync playback when plated on your NTSC DVD and TV, and if you use the "Pal Template" the movie might not play at all..There isn"t an easy way to convert NTSC to Pal and Pal to NTSC, it involves extracting the audio from the avi then changeing the frame rate of the AVI with "avi frame rate changer" then useing a audio editing program like "Sound Forge 6" to Stretch or Shrink the audio file to the new length or the avi file so they will sync up..It is not a procedure for the unexperienced..There is a program called "DV Film Maker" that will take a "25fps" avi file and convert it to a "29.9fps NTSC" file,but It takes quite a while to do..

I sugest using AVI synth... Version 1.7b has an option of doing PAL<->NTSC using a small script and it works quite well...
