I have downloaded some wmv video from our state broadcaster, but as I have
trouble playing it on my media box, I need to convert it to mpeg.
I start a new project, and add wmv file.If I go to cut-edit section, and
play back different parts of the file, the audio is in perfect sync.
I click ok and select DVD standard mpeg file as format, 16:9, CBR and
dolby digital.(have also tried pcm).resolution is then set to 720x576, 9200 average bit rate for video, and 224 kb rate for audio.I then go to encode section.here I can do preview as well, and the audio is still in perfect sync.I start encode, and it finishes after some conversion time.and then I have an mpeg file with audio severely out of sync.the audio is a few seconds ahead of the video.
mpeg file is tested with vlc and wmp.is this a bug in tmp, or did I do something
foolish setting up the project? thanks in advance for any help.
I have a problem with TMPGEnc DVD Author. I've created a subtitle within the program, but it's not save. The video comes as a .divx file. So probably the subtitle should be saved in the same folder...
What's the thing? Where do the subtitle go saved?
I have a FLV file specs below which my coppy of TMPGEnc 4.6.3.268 will not open so I cannot convert.
Is there anyway to get it too work?
It's very annoying, this a bought product, but the free Any Video Converter 3.1.0 which I searched and found WILL!!!!
General
CompleteName : F:\xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.flv
Format : Flash Video
FileSize/String : 429 MiB
Duration/String : 2mn 45s
OverallBitRate/String : 21.7 Mbps
The answer I got from TMPGEnc was that I should try and upgrade, and that FLV1 and FLv4 were the only flvs supported, nothing about when they thought abought including anything else.
Not progressive and customer interested, when a quick search turns up a prog that does what I want, it makes me wonder if I will be buying any of there stoff again.
This is the way I convert an .flv file with TMPGEnc - YMMV
I use the following programs:
AutoGK 2.55 (also installs AviSynth)
QuickTime Pro (or VLC can be used) for audio conversion
FLV Extract 1.6.1 http://moitah.net/
DGAVCDec 1.09 http://www.videohelp.com/download/dgavcdec109.zip
use FLV Extract to demux the .flv
open the .aac audio file in QuickTime to create a .wav file
File > Export > Export: Sound To Wave > Options: (choose what you like)
now you have your .wav file
open the .264 video file in DGAVCDec
(learn how to choose your 'settings'...)
File > Save Project
now you have your .dga file
Save these 6 lines in notepad as an .avs file:
LoadPlugin ("C:\Program Files\DGAVC\DGAVCDecode.dll")
you can add features in this .avs file for exact control of your video:
BicubicResize (608,456)
Greyscale ()
AddBorders (16,12,16,12)
Trim (1236,35363)
FadeIn (12)
FadeOut (12)
and dozens of others.....
Keep all these files so far in the same folder.
TMPGEnc will now import the .avs file with all your editing features,
along with most other video programs that can handle an .avi import.
One of the few things you have to set is bitrate & quality. The added bonus
of an .avs file - you can drop it into other programs like VirtualDub
& all of your resizing, fading, bordering, etc... in the .avs - saving
you the time of having to reset everything in different programs.
Spankenstein thanks for posting. Try reading the post, its about a new flv that TMPGEnc dosn't support and after that they are not interested.
Your method sounds like a lot of hard work when Any Video Converter 3.1.0 which I mentioned in the origonal post, will do it in one go and is very quick.
I just think that TMPGEnc's attitude confirms my view about buying programs.
I created AVI files from a professionally produced DVD, a different AVI file for each track on the DVD. Now I'm trying to use those AVI files to create a new DVD. However, loading the files into TMPGEnc Authoring Works shows the resulting disk as 26804 MB!! Considering these files were ripped from a 8.5 gig DVD, what's with the enormous increase in file size? I've checked the settings and see no way of reducing the quality of the encoding..
What was the encoding settings for the orginal DVD? You can change the encoding quality in the Track settings; you'll have to change it for each track.
Is there a simple way to create a DVD, and than and also make a Blu-ray from the same menu and source files (source files are already HD) without having to make a new project from scratch?
I've used this for years, but now it crashes whenever I try to burn a disc. It creates the VOB files, and I can burn them with other software, but I need to burn them with TMPGEnc DVD Author (don't ask why).
I tried to reinstall, but the install program keeps looking for the msi file, which I no longer have. If I uninstall and reinstall, will that solve the problem? Or is there another fix?
WHEN I USE THIS TO CONVERT I DONT GET ANY SOUND .
WOULD ANY ONE KNOW WHY AND HOW TO FIX?

I've recently been trying to transcode a short timelapse clip to play on an iPad and seem to have run into a roadblock. Although settings for MPEG-4 AVC 720p work great, the TMPGEnc 4.0 XPress User interface will not allow me to set a native iPad resolution of 1024x768 using the Level 3.1 supported but the iPad. It will only allow that resolution if Level 3.2 or higher is selected, which according to the iPad specifications is not supported.
By my calculations 1024x768 would be 1024/16=64 and 768/16=48 so at 30fps this should produce 64*48*30 or 92,160 macro blocks per second. This is well under the limit of 108,000 for Level 3.1. So why wont XPress allow me to select this resolution with level 3.1 (it keeps changing it back to 1024x720)?
This odd behavior appears to prevent encoding at the native iPad resolution using the 3.1 level. Did I miss something?
Using Vista, Authoring Works 4 worked great and almost any file type could be imported. But I have now switched to a new computer with Windows 7 and the FLV files will not import (they worked perfect before). The FLV videos play fine with WMP, Real Player and other free player software. At the moment I'm having to convert them into MPEG using FLVconverter and then import into Author Works 4. Other than go back to an old computer, any ideas??
