Hello! I have 2 important questions, in this days try this product, is good but
There are options for BD authoring without recoding and it does directly 1:1?
I have created: intro+movie+trailer, after authoring this becomes a single file!
normally in the any BD structure are separated this 3 videos.
there is an option that allows me to have them all and 3 separated?

Are you putting them in separate tracks, or in the same track?

After editing a clip, I am trying to encode file in wmv. However, it just gives me a status "preparing output", and keeps that way, encoding never starts. I installed new K-Lite codec pack, and Windows Media Encoder, as suggested in Help, but still no use. Also, tried in other formats, same thing happens. Any ideas?

I don't know who it was who suggested the K-Lite codecs pack, but that package is nothing than a piece of junk collection of all sorts of useless codecs.
To avoid futher problems, i suggest that you download both Revo Uninstaller and CCleaner.
First you use Revo to remove the codecs pack entirely and when that is done, you use CCleaner to remove the rest of the garbage it has left behind in your computers registry.

In general, i don't suggest that you use WMV, that is also a piece of junk that only belongs in the past.
Encode instead to MP4 H264, much more stable, much more support by all media players, plus you can play a lot more with the bitrates to fit them to your need.

I have to agree with the above user, that codec pack is junk. I use cole2k advanced codec pack with the full install

have to ask, whats your system specs and what is the reason behind wanting to use wmv

I am trying to convert a video deposition; from VOB file; to MPEG-2.

But I can't figure out how to upload additional clips.

Also, am getting Error Message: ''Unsupported File. Error: 0x80048003''.

Is there a local class I can take? I'm in Houston, Texas. I want to master this thing.

Need Help ASAP! Thank you.

Read the help file; it explains how to do things.

To add more clips in Timeline mode, there is an Add Clip button above the timeline. You can hover your pointer over a button to get a description.

In Normal mode, you can use the Source Wizard or Add File button on the right-hand side of the window in the Edit Stage.

For VOB files, you probably want to use the Source Wizard and select the "From a DVD, etc." option.

Not sure about the error code you're getting. You might want to contact support:

follow this instruction:

it works great on my computer.

When frameserving from Sony Vegas, I just noticed that an MP4 H.264 file encoded with VMW5 displays changed levels, and contrast is lost =(

I am doing research on frameserving and video editing (I am still a newbie, but I want the best quality I can get with the most control)

I came across TMPGEnc, and had plans to frameserve it to another program for personal reasons. I mostly want to achieve the best quality/speed ratio possible, I am currently using vegas, but it sometimes crashes, it is a decent program surely, but I am tired of it crashing during various renders and I see a program that can is stable and reliable. If I edit a video in TMPGEnc, will it be similar to the original piece I used on its result?

My apologies for asking so abruptly, thank you for reading.

TMPGEnc Video Mastering Works 5 is not a lossless editing program. It's primary function is encoding; it will re-encode everything you output.

You can re-encode at the same (or higher) levels and the output might be similar in quality, but it will not be exactly the same.

TMPGEnc MPEG Smart Renderer 4 is a lossless editor; it will only re-encode frames where a change is made (cuts, joins, transition effects, etc.). However, it is only for MPEG video (MPEG-1, MPEG-2, H.264/MPEG-4 AVC) and it can be finicky on what can and can't be smart rendered.

Frequently, when I load an AVI file, the video comes up as horizontal bars. How do I fix this?

Hi Dez
I had the same problem. Just read the answer tkrave gave me 4 questions down from yours. The one that starts "cant read avi files". His answer fixed everything. Really quite simple :)

I think currently no TMPGEnc software supports 10bit-depth encoded files. Since they are becoming increasing popular (more quality on the same bitrate) it's a pity Mastering Works 5, Smart Renderer 4 etc. cannot open them. Please add support.

10bit-depth output information links here:

http://www.x264.nl/x264_main.php

The Profile Format of these files is: High 10@(AVC Level). Here you can download an example file (High 10@L3.0): https://www.mediafire.com/?73rgr38ckps156c

had to delete the previous message as after all these years the forum still hasnt had an edit button added.

Yeah, i just "complained" that they dont have something like or just the avi 10bit that sony vegas and adobe have for rendering. and i did the complaint because its NEEDED when you use noise filters to avoid the chroma banding.

also they really do need to add support for 10bit videos for import aswell as its a royal pain in the rear having to render 10 bit into 8 bit just for the software to work with it

Will it be possible to use a picture (e.g. a PNG with transparency) as title in a future version of SR4?

Image files can now be used with v.4.2.0.64. Nice move, Pegasys!

I'm considering purchasing Video Mastering Works 5 (downloaded trial today) as a replacement for a time consuming workflow that was developed by a Sony Vegas user a few years ago to achieve super high quality H.264 encodes. His tutorial made use of Handbrake, a free program that uses the x264 encoder. As I see that VMW5 now utilizes x264, I believe it will be possible to duplicate the configuration settings to achieve the same result.

I'm not very technical when it comes to settings like this, can anyone here assist me with setting up a template to match the x264 settings seen in this video: http://vimeo.com/24640614 starting at 7:42? If I can achieve the same results with VMW5 by frameserving directly from Vegas, then I will buy the software.

Hello, I have TMPGE VMW 5.4.2.103 and use CUDA settings with my GTX770. Is SLI supported and would I see faster encoding?

Hi...

Initially only a graphic card can be used. You can try open 2 instances of Tmpgenc at same time and assing one graphic card to each. I dont know if this work because I have only one nvidia card.


Regards, Alkermes.

Anyway, I have a GTX650 ti and works fine with recoding 4 video files at same time (CUDA decoding and encoding). With your GTX 770 you dont need to use a SLI ;-)


Regards, Alkermes.

Is there a way to remove a humming noise in my video?

I think there's an audio noise reduction filter. Open the clip editor and go to the Filter tab. You may have to add the filter to your list (can't remember if it's there by default).

Otherwise, you can use a program like Audacity.

hi there, ive just purchased smart renderer4 - and i wondered if theres a shortcut key to quickly grab a frame a JPG without having to enter a name it just does it.

im sure this must be doable

i know you can right click and choose "save current frame in specified format" but its long if you're capturing lots

thanks!!
