Hi. Since i upgraded to 2.59, it seems no matter what i do my movies come out to long & won't fit on one cd, have no sound, or they freeze at some point. I know about the direct show thing so that's not it. Any help please. thankx.
Yes there is a bug in the muxer in the new version which is causing the problem you are having.
Just re-multiplex the MPEG in the earlier version to solve the problem.
Well if they have no sound then you should try extracting the audio to a WAV file with sometimg like "Virtual dub" and use that as the audio source..If you are makeing a VCD and you are lowering the bitrate lower that the Standard VCD bitrate then you need to go to "settings" to"System" and change it to "Video-CD NON-Standard" this will let the file size decrease..But the Quality if files with such a low bitrate will be really bad...

No Minion this won't work in the new version, as I have said, because of the muxing bug.
Minion check your MPEG1 VCD encodes, you will find that even when using lower than VCD standard bitrates the bitrate will be padded to standard VCD even when using the 'Non standard' stream setting.
>ASHY & Minion thankx for the reply. ASHY what do you mean re-multiplex the MPEG with an early verson?
If you have used a 'Non standard bitrate' say lower than standard VCD the you will need to use the 'simple multiplex' option in the MPEGtools to and choose the stream setting 'Non standard VCD' to remove the padding.
Just load the file into both fields and rename the output.
How can I use DVDx 2.0/TMPGEnc 2.59 with Toolame 0.2i or SCMPX? I want to make a VideoCD from a DVD-Video. DVDx 2.0 and TMPGEnc 2.59 works fine together without Toolame/SCMPX, but when I use on of these two programs both DVDx 2.0 and TMPGEnc 2.59 freezes. The only thing I have done until now is to push the browse button, so TMPGEnc know where to find toolame/SCMPX. But this is not enough, it seems. By the way, which is best when it comes to sound quality, toolame or SCMPX?
Every time i try to encode a file avi in a file mpg the program stop after a
few minutes and tell me "read error occurred at address 027a5923 of module 'p3package.dll'
with 4746a480. I have windows 2000, amd athlon 2000, 256 MB ddram333mhz, abit siluro mx 440
geforce 64 mb. I'have exctracted tmpgenc in a new folder. I have problems with every program
that convert dvd in divx or divx in vcd. someone could help me, please?
That error is caused By not haveing all the Tmpgenc files in the same folder..Every file that comes with tmpgenc has to be in the same folder, and one of those files has to be the "P3P Package.dll"..If you are missing that file or you do have that file but it is still giveing you an error the re-download Tmpgenc...
Thx for your response. What I mean is the function of MPG1-non standard, i.e. when I encode to MPG for fitting in one CDR (e.g. 120min movie).
But after I return to use version 2.58, it's OK. I am glad to notice that someone has put this problem on the BBS.
Yes your right there is a bug in the new versions muxer. It is using the standard muxing rate for non standard MPEG1 VCD files which is adding padding to the file.
To remove the padding you need to remultiplex in an earlier version using the 'non standard VCD' setting.
In trying to convert a few movies to mpeg-1, i'm recieving the msg : "Read error occured at adress 0049eecd of module 'TMPGEnc.exe' with 0009d43c". It happend to me a few times. I simply asking why?
Is it have to do with the fact that when opening the filw in VirtualDub i recieve the msg : "inproper VBR audio encoding...etc etc"?
The improper VBR encodeing is a Totally seperate Problem ..That error means that the audio in the source file is encoded with "VBR Mp3"..Tmpgenc will not encode "VBR Mp3" so you will need to extract the audio to a WAV file with V-Dub and use that as the audio source..The other error Could be from the source file being corrupted, This is very common with Downloaded Movie files from places like Kazaa.
Check out www.karaokeplayground.co.uk. Traxmaster has wrote a great little prog that makes batch conversion a piece of cake! (With an acknowledgement to Futile)Go to 'Converting/burning mp3+g'.
Is-it possible to reencode a mpeg2 file with a CBR of 2500 kbps in a new mpeg2 file with VBR around 2000 kbps in order to reduce the size of the file ?
Yes But you will greatly ruduce the Quality of the Mpeg file...You will get much better results if you use the Original Source file and re-encode that...
Thanks Manion, but is-it possible with Tmpgenc ? Because i tried to do it , but without success...Tmpgenc didn't recognize the format of the source file to convert in VBR (2000 kbps) although the source file was done by tmpenc with CBR of 2500kbps .....
I think what Minion is trying to say is that you dont need to reencode something that is already encoded, regardless of what settings you use. Use the "original" .avi source file and encode that however you please. There would be no point to re-encode an already existing mpeg2 file.
TO answer your question, TMPgenc takes .avi files, not mpeg2 files even if that file was already encoded with TMP
You CAN encode Mpeg2 file with Tmpgenc But you need to have either a "Cyberlink Mpeg2 Decoder" the "Ligos Mpeg2 decoder" or the "Sony mpeg2 Decoder"..I still prefer to use DVD2AVI if I am going to encode Mpeg2 files Cuz it seems faster than other Mpeg2 decoders..
Tmpgenc 2.59 can use an external audio engine. Why should anyone use this facility? Do we get a better sound quality? Which external sound engine has best sound quality? I convert DVD-Video to VideoCD. Can an MP3 encoder be used? Any downsides?
TMPGENC MPEG-1 L2 audio encoder is only "fair". TOOLAME 0.2i
is claimed to be the best, and is designed as a plug in.

After Download your Free Licens Version 2.59 i´m not able to create DVD - Mpeg2 because it says, Expiration date of Mpeg2 is expired.
I just want to test - how can I overcome this problem??
Thanks in advance
This happens cuz in the past you have tmpgenc installed..You can only install one demo and that is it..After you install a demo and 30 days goes by you can not install a Demo ever again unless you Buy Tmpgenc Plus...
Thanks for this information, but if it is true, that I have installed a demo version before, it must be ages ago - for I can´t remember.
By the way , all Magazines in Germany (PC Direct / Videofilmen/ Camgaroo/ etc.) refere to the Shareware from Tempgen that privat persons can use for free and without any expiration date. This is than absolut missleading and not correct.
