This error comes up multiple times when trying to encode my mpeg from a divx avi. Any thought? where do I find out what this error means?

Thanks!

Same here, I get the same errors every few frames, but only with Divx files...

Likewise with me. I go to convert the avi and when it starts I get continual errors popping up. eg 'ERROR: 537403781 589824' I'm not sure if its the same problem or not but can someone help?

I had a problem of "Illeagal floating point" that wouldn't go away until I deleted Tmpgenc.ini, don't know if it could help you though... But in any case you have to remember that when doing so, all the Q-Matrixes that you made yourself and saved are lost...

This error usually pops up when the AVI is corrupted in some way such as corrupt frames.
At a guess, the first part of the error, which is always the same, is an error code (don't ask me what) and the second could be the packet number or the frame number in the file that has the problem.

Either way it is likely due to a corrupt file and one which you have probably downloaded.
You may be able to get around the problem by frame serving from virtualdub or if you prefer just use Virtualdub to try and 'fix' the AVI by creating another AVI using the direct stream copy option.

Experts, help...!!!!!

I want to encode mpg2 stream to mpg2 stream, what i did are:
1. de-mux the mp2 file
2. encode the video file to mpg1
3. mux the audio to the resulting video ==> my system is now mpg1

Please help.

I have a phillips DVD player and Hollywood real magic decoder, but I can not play VCD movies. I have tried a number of different players (WIN DCD, Power DVD. TMPG). I have MOrgan Multimedia codec installed and Windows Media player (Latest version) and whenever I try and play a VCD I always get an unsupported file format message. Any suggestion to help me would be appreciated.

Thanks

Are clicking directly on the .dat file itself? Try dragging the .dat file directly on to the WinDVD shortcut.
If that doesn't work then there is something wrong with your MPEG file and seems to be invalid.

Are these VCD's standard VCD's and where did you get them?

Try running the .dat file through the simple multiplexer in TMPG and choose 'MPEG1 VCD' as the stream type then play with WinDVD.

will tmpg encode xvids?

Yes....

Ok I'm not down with all this computer lingo that most of these sites just jump into then they explain stuff. However, I'm not sure if my questions even pertains to this site but here goes, I am trying to get some things I donwloaded from KAZAA onto my DVD that I am trying to burn, but it keeps telling me to switch from PAL to NTSC and when I do they show up with their little menus so I take it that it worked but when I go to create DVD it says unknown device error check device and it brings up a little bar that show some progress of something but doesn't tell what and then when the progress bar is finished it says DVD timeout and it gives me an option to retry or cancel, when i retry it does the same thing again. There it is if someone can help it will be greatly appreciated and if they use simple steps even more so haha. Thanks

OK...What is telling you to switch from Pal to NTSC??A "Unknown Device Error" is a Hardware problem...can you explain a little more clearly what you are talking ABOUT...

I heard that this will help me when I try to make my dvd burner convert ntsc to pal but I downloaded it and unzipped it and now I have no clue how to use it. Can anyone help me. thanks

Whats up with all these NTSC to Pal Conversion Questions!!!!You Can not use Tmpgenc to do this properly...Read Below...

Please can anyone tell me if there is a way to change the framerate on a film that has been converted to mpeg I need to go from 29 to 25 because I TV does not support 29fps the film is vcd ntsc 29fps I need vcd pal 25fps

Read the Post Below for your answer, it Can NOT be done properly with Tmpgenc..

I keep getting a error telling me that it can open the file or the file is unsupported. I am trying to convert pal to ntsc formate. Can anybody help me.

Thanks

Look above for enlightenment.

You CANT convert from Pal to NTSC or NTSC to PAL with Tmpgenc..Well you can try but I can Gaurantee you that the results will not be watchable, the audio will go out of sync and it will have Jumpy playback...You either have to use a program to convert the Pal AVI into a NTSC AVI then encode to mpeg, there are a few that can do it Supposedly "AVIsynth" has a Good option to do this, and Canopus Procoder is good at it too, and "Advanced Pal/NTSC Converter" is good at it too....for your Unsupported message go to "options" 2'Enviromental Settings" 2 "Vfapi Plugins" and raise the "Direct show" to "2"...

....or just wait until minion answers it yet again.

LOL....Don't know how u do it bud.

help i've tried this mpg-converter a few months ago, i decided to wait till a later version before buying. now i want to check the latest version but the program say's mpeg2 encoding has expired. What can i do ???

download it again

Sorry your out of luck.

The trial testing period carries over to the next version and isn't renewed with each version.
Once you run TMPG and start the trial you have 30 days ands that it.
Time to get your wallet out I'm afraid.

ASHY

Download the PLUS version you will get 14 days trial.

Is there a way to move a d2v file to another drive or directory. I tried editing the d2v file to reflect the new drive letter but it didn't seem to work.

Why? What's the point?
You would have to move the files and folders you used to create it also.

If you need to move the .d2v to another drive just delete the one you've got and simply create another one with DVD2AVI.

Hi all,
You may have already seen this question many times. I have downloaded a divx file and want to convert to burn a cd and read the film on my DVD player.
The problem is that the file is too big to fit into one disc and I even may 3 discs. How can I manage to burn 3 CDs with one single big file?

The odvious answer would be to cut the file into 3 parts and burn each on a Disk?!?!?!?!?...you can try it with the "Mpeg tools" Merge & Cut" but they don"t allways work so any other Mpeg editor will work like Mpeg2Vcr...

I'm trying to convert an avi file to mpeg. however when trying to select source file it gives me a message that the file is unable to open or unsupported. Can anyone tell me what i should do?

Hello,

I had the same problem in the past. It is necessary to load the free VFP Plugin in TMPGENC. I load it down from the homepage of TMPGENC. It is a .bat file which you have to execute. Then I hope it will function.

go to "Options" to "enviromental settings" to "vfapi Plugins" and raise the "Direct Show" to "2"...

Debbie do a search above for 'unsupported' and look for messages regarding the 'VFAPI plugins' and the 'directshow multimedia file reader'
You will find your answer many many times.

Too late minion has already answered it AGAIN.......
