Question - TE25 - mpeg2 and wav interlace No.28025
trew88  2002-09-14 16:12:43 ( ID:mzg35rdguih )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Ok, I have ripped a couple of movies i want to interlace with the audio it ripped off one of my dvds. The movie is in mpeg2 format and audio is in .wav format how can i interlace them using this program they said i could but i still cant figure out how. I have tried using multiplex but its not letting me open the mpeg 2 movie in it and i dont see any other way any help would be greatly appiriciated. Thanks again for your time :)

You can not "Multiplex" Mpeg2 video with Wav audio with this program, you have to encode the audio to "mp2" then use the "multiplex", or some authoring programs allow for wav audio, like "Dazzle DVD Complete"...


ASHY  2002-09-15 17:04:10 ( ID:n3gjkhi6dvc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Why didn't you encode the audio at the same time? You will have to encode the audio separately to mp2 and then multiplex.

By the way I think the actual term you need is interleave not interlace.

Question - TE25 - Audi out of sync and yes I did extract to WAV first No.28019
dominic s  2002-09-14 16:09:43 ( ID:yjugllmhu1w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Hi

I have used Tmpegenc twice now on 2 hour films in DIVX format. I extracted the audio to WAV without compression and then combined them using the standard DVD PAL settings. The audio goes out of sync in the 2nd hour on both films. This shows up on various software players and on my set top DVD player after burning.

Also on my set top box the video stops now and again in the 2nd hour then starts again.

Any suggestions as to what is causing this please.

Thanks


Minion  2002-09-14 22:08:54 ( ID:w8yn5mktf8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Is this a file you downloaded off the net???Many files downloaded off the net aren"t the exact frame rate that they say they are, meaning a file that says it is 23.9fps could actually be 23.8fps, so when you encode it at 23.9fps it gradually goes out of sync..I don"t know of an easy way to fix this type of de-sync..


dominic s  2002-09-14 22:58:44 ( ID:/ekw7eudfi6 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

It is and it's 25 fps PAL - any more suggestions?

Thanks


Minion  2002-09-15 01:18:39 ( ID:w8yn5mktf8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

The only way I know that you might be able to fix this is to take the Wav Audio file that you extracted from the avi then find out Exactly how long it is, to the 1/100-second, then find out exactly how long the Mpeg Video is, the audio file should be a bit longer or Shorter than the mpeg video file, that amount longer or shorter should be the amount it is out of sync..So you load the Wav Audio into a good audio editing program like "Sound Forge 6" and use it to Stretch or shrink the audio file to the exact same length as the mpeg video file then you encode the wave to mp2 and multiplex it with the Video...I know it is a very tricky procedure and doesn"t allways work properly...

Question - TE25 - Convert NTSC to PAL No.28012

How do I convert NTSC to Pal with TMPGenc??
Thank you!
Hans


Minion  2002-09-14 09:58:42 ( ID:w8yn5mktf8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Converting Ntsc to pal or Pal to ntsc properly is job most programs can NOT do correctly ,and tmpgenc can NOT do it correctly, if you try to do it with Tmpgenc you will have jumpy playback and sync problems..The only program that I know of that CAN do this fairly good is "Canopus ProCoder"...


Olli  2002-09-14 11:30:51 ( ID:dazey0v8lbg )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Here is what I do ....

NTSC to PAL conversion

0)If Virtualdub won't allow you to extract wav directly from avi decompress the avi 1st using avi2vcd's decompress utility

1) Extract the audio to wav using Virtual Dub
Go to the audio menu and set audio to full processing mode.
Then select File -> Save WAV to save the audio track as an uncompressed WAV file to your harddisk

Note* If the audio is ac3 format need to extract using Virtualdub direct stream copy, rename the .wav to .ac3 and convert to wav using heac3he utility

2) Then find out the 25 fps video length of the (decompressed) avi using avifrate - change fps to 25 then write down the new length of the film exactly (to 3dp) in seconds - You may want to back up the avi first !!

3) Use "avi frame rate changer" to change the frame rate header of the (decompressed) avi to 25fps and execute the change.
Note* You may want to backup the avi before changing the framerate so that uou dont permanently alter the original.

4) Use "cool edit" to stretch the audio to the exact length of the video file as found in (2)
When the program opens you will be presented with a box allowing you to choose 2 options. Choose options 1 and 3.

In the program click file>open and open the wav you created earlier.
Wait for it to finish then click 'Edit' and untick 'enable undo' then click 'select entire wave' next click 'Transform' and choose 'Time/pitch' from the drop down menu then click 'stretch'
In this box tick the following options:

Low precision (can use High precision if you have a fast CPU but there is not much difference between the two)
Time stretch (preserves pitch)
In the length box enter the exact length of the (decompressed) avi in seconds as found in (2)
Pitch and time settings - check choose appropriate default

When its finished (it spends a long time on 99% before completing) click 'file' then 'save as' and name and save your file as a wav.
This should give you a Wav file which will be the same length as the (decompressed) AVI.

5) Then encode to XVCD template in TMPGenc specifying the decompressed avi that was changed to 25fps using avifrate as video source and the stretched wav as audio source - Note this will still use toolame and ssrc if they are specified as external tools in TMPGenc


Minion  2002-09-14 22:01:55 ( ID:w8yn5mktf8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

That method works but it isn"t a true Ntsc to pal conversion, and it doesn"t work with files that are 29.9fps..and isn"t to be tried by the in-experienced..


Hans  2002-09-15 09:28:17 ( ID:gispzp7xetl )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Thanks for the replies!! I have been looking at Canopus Procoder ...... that program is VERY expensive!! Too much for my budget!
Thanks anyway.

Question - TE25 - An Svcd Mpg Made in Tmpgenc... try to load in tmpgenc again and unsupported No.28010
houseman  Home )  2002-09-14 07:08:37 ( ID:yagkro17hy2 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

heh. .just seems odd. . that i can make a vcd mpg using smartripper/dvd2avi/tmpgenc .. and then i can go back and merge/cut/edit in tmpgenc no problem..
but if i decide to make it an svcd mpg and want to go into it later and add an intro or merge the mpgs .. etc.. it wont even load up in tmpgenc..this makes 0 sense to me. . this file was created by tmpgenc .. . it was born of tmpgenc. .why is it now unsupported by tmpgenc.... is there a fix to this..
'worried ripper.


Minion  2002-09-14 07:26:45 ( ID:w8yn5mktf8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Because Tmpgenc can Encode to Mpeg2 doesn"t mean it will load Mpeg2 files to be encoded to a Different format....To Load Mpeg2 files into tmpgenc you have to have either the "Cyberlink" mpeg2 decoder installed on your system or the "Ligos" mpeg2 decoder installed.Or you can use the "Mpeg2-VFP" Plugin, but either way it needs a mpeg2 decoder to so it can decode the mpeg2 file..if you have "Power DVD" you will have the mpeg2 decoder...



Question - TE25 - TMPGEnc read error No.28009
reester  2002-09-14 03:06:53 ( ID:xh3lqvfqeyr )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Hope someone can help me. I am using TMPGEnc Version 2.57.41.146 (registered)to encode a 12.3GB DV Avi file. I encoded it with VCD and SVCD templates just fine but using the DVD template (tried several birates and rate control modes)I get the following "Read error occured at address 00481807 of module 'TMPGEnc.exe' with 05C9AC20". Not sure if the address locations are the same every time, but I don't think so. It errors out like this after different percentages of completion even with the same settings. Never gotten past 62% tho. I'm running W2K on an Athlon XP with 512k ram. Tried V2.58 with same results. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hey I just want to know one thing...when are ya'll gonna make it possible to upgrade to a newer version without haveing to purchase it...there are so many versions and that could end up costing too much and make your product not worth it...i would like to upgrade to 5.8 but I don't have the cash to keep dumping like that...anyways...thanks for your time...


Minion  2002-09-14 03:21:49 ( ID:w8yn5mktf8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

You Can,If you purchased any of the 2.5 plus versions you can upgrade for free to the 2.58 version..If you are haveing a problem with upgradeing contact support at the Pegassus site.....

At :
http://www.pegasys-inc.com/e_main3.html

It says
"Those who have purchased previous version of TMPGEnc Plus are free to upgrade to this version, 2.58! Just download this version and run the program please."

Why did you think "can't upgrade without paying...."?



Question - TE25 - Bad audio with large files and new version slower No.28000
Michelle  2002-09-14 01:05:55 ( ID:kigm2esmvsr )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Now that I have XP Pro, I decided to make 1 large (about 7.5GB) file of my caps rather than hassling with frameserving. I make two encodes: VCD and WMV. The WMVs from the large file turn out fine. The VCDs appear to encode fine (no errors), but when I play them, the audio is messed up. The audio starts out fine, but when I move the slider, I lose the audio, or I get the wrong audio. Not just out of synch, but like it took audio from one part of the show and put it in another.

I have been using version 2.52 and thought maybe upgrading would help. The problem is that if I use the same settings, 2.58 takes much longer. 4:10 instead of 2:50 for the one I tried. I haven't had a chance yet to let it run all the way through to see if it fixes my orginal problem, but even if I have to go back to frameserving, I'd like to use the latest version.

So my questions are:
1. Is there a problem with TMPGEnc 2.52 (or higher) with messed audio on large files?
2. Why is 2.58 so much slower than 2.52 and is there any way that can be fixed?

Thanks,

Michelle

This seems like a problem with your configuration cuz no one has complained about the newer versions being slower, and what do you use to watch your mpeg files with ??If you are useing Media Player then don"t cuz it has problems sometimes playing mpeg files..You should use something like "Power DVD"..For me and probably most poeple the newer versions are faster at encodeing than Older versions..What OS did you upgrade from??Was it Windows ME or 98???Cuz there can be some big problems when upgradeing from Win Me or 98 to XP and XP Pro..When i upgraded from Win Me to XP Pro, I had so many problems that I had to totally erase my Hard drive and to a Full Install if XP Pro instead of an Upgrade, now it works fine...

>This seems like a problem with your configuration cuz no one has complained about the newer versions being slower,

The computer configuration, or TMPGEnc? If the latter, I'm using the same configuration in both versions.

>and what do you use to watch your mpeg files with ??If you are useing Media Player then don"t cuz it has problems sometimes playing mpeg files..You should use something like "Power DVD"..

I use WMP, but that isn't the problem. The VCDs that were frameserved play just fine. Why would I use Power DVD for VCDs?

>For me and probably most poeple the newer versions are faster at encodeing than Older versions..

Well, for me, it'd definitely slower. Same AVI file, same config, almost 1.5 hours slower.

>What OS did you upgrade from??Was it Windows ME or 98???Cuz there can be some big problems when upgradeing from Win Me or 98 to XP and XP Pro..When i upgraded from Win Me to XP Pro, I had so many problems that I had to totally erase my Hard drive and to a Full Install if XP Pro instead of an Upgrade, now it works fine...

I didn't upgrade from anything. I just bought this computer and it came with XP Pro.

Thanks,

Michelle

You watch your VCD"s with power DVD Cuz VCD"s are in Mpeg format which is what DVD"s are..Windows media player Has a habbit of playing Mpeg files out of sync, so badly that the audio can be out of sync by 20 minutes...if you have the "Motion Precition" on Highest quality that will make the encodeing take twice as long..how can you have the same configuration on 2 different computers with differant Opperateing systems?...

DVDs are MPG2. VCDs are MPG1. There is no reason to use a DVD player for VCD. They play just fine in WMP. Again, the player is _not_ the problem. The frameserved files play just fine.

>if you have the "Motion Precition" on Highest quality that will make the encodeing take twice as long..

I have it set to higher in both cases. I have been using TMPGenc for over 2 years. I'm not a newbie. Both versions are set up identically, but the large file AVIs take longer on the new version than the old version. I ran a test last night, and frameserved ones are unaffected.

>how can you have the same configuration on 2 different computers with differant Opperateing systems?...

Since I am only using one computer and one OS, I have no idea what the point of this question is.

At any rate, from my own testing, I have confirmed that using >2GB files is indeed the problem. Since no one else is answering and you don't appear to actually be reading my responses, I will just go back to frameserving.

Thanks,

Michelle

Question - TE25 - File Unsupported - Sorry...same old thing No.27997
Kahuna  2002-09-13 20:13:45 ( ID:k3lamlaailn )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I hate to chime in with the same problem, but I haven't been able to solve this one and scanned through all the threads so far.

I'm trying to frameserve from Premier to TMPGEnc. I was able to do this many times last month without a problem. However, now I'm getting the dreaded "cannot open or file unsupported" message.

I've set my DirectShow MFR to 2.
I've uninstalled Win Media Player 7 and then reinstalled it w/all options.

Unfortunately I can't pinpoint what has changed between when this worked and when it stopped. I think I might have installed the Tsunami Filter pack in between. Other than that I can't be specific.

Is there anything else I can try. TMPGEnc was working great before.

Please help.
Thanks
Kahuna


Minion  2002-09-13 21:47:51 ( ID:w8yn5mktf8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Maybe try Disableing the Direct show filter, this has been known to help ocationally with frameserveing....


Kahuna  2002-09-13 21:53:15 ( ID:k3lamlaailn )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

solved my problem by reinstalling the VideoFrameServer (determined the codec was missing)

Got any ideas what this is all about???
Thanks

It Seems that for some reason there is an error in Decodeing your divX file, there is probably an error in you File that is causeing it...you can try to start encodeing a few frames after you get the error then join the 2 mpeg"s together in the "Merge & Cut"...
