I was wondering why no new upgrades since September 03....now we know.

Doesn't work for me. You need tmpgenc 2.5 plus JAPANESE. I have English.
The Software is in Japanese.

I recently installed TMPGEnc Plus 2.5. I've used previous versions in the past and without any problems. I am trying to encode and avi(huffyyuv) file to mpeg2. When I choose the file I wish to encode and select next. A window appears with a progress bar. The window is titled "Judging field order...". THe progress bar immediately jumps to 8% and then stops. The task manager indicates that the app is not responding however if I leave it for 2 hours it does eventually complete. It normally completes at appox 8% every 10 minutes. Patiently I waited and returned to learn that my 2hr avi file had completed the "Judging field order..." in just over 2hrs :(. Then I selected the crop video in order to chop a few seconds of the start and end of the video. When I tried to advace frames the hourglass appeared and the app hung once again. I decided to closed the app and search for some info on this issue. Can anyone help with this?

I am running Windows XP Professional on an AMD Athlon 2800+ with 1024MB of Twin DDR333 Corsair Memory. I have three 160GB Seagate Barracuda Hard Drives with plenty of space.

Try this, Go into your HuffyUV Codec settings and enable the "Allways Suggest RGB Format for Output" option and see if this helps...OR ,Don"t use the WiZard, Tmpgenc only does the Judgeing Field order when useing the WiZard so if you don"t use it it will not freeze...Cheers

If you check out the Japanese version of the TMPGEnc web site, you can find out about the new TMPGEnc 3.0. It was released for Japanese beta testers who have a Sony VAIO last month.

The new features look exciting:

It will have a completely redesigned user interface similar to TMPGEnc DVD Author.

TMPGEnc can now handle YUV colorspace. (No more forced conversion to RGB24!!!)

The MPEG1/MPEG2 encoding engine were rewritten which gives better quality and a much needed speed improvement.

The filters have been done allowing for real time preview. The noise reduction filter has been greatly improved. Users now have the option of resize filters such as Lanczos, bilinear, etc.

These are just some of features listed in Japanese section.

I was just about to post a note asking this question. Thanks for the info.

hi
I am creating vcd-pal ,and im using virtual dub for frame serving , but vhen i load virtual dub-s output file in tmpgc , there are no subtitles found. Hov can i include subtitles in these case?
Can i somhov include them in mpg file
Thanks

I know how it's so frustrating where you converted to MPEG but something's not right and you have to convert all over again. I did that once.

To add subtitles, you must first go into Virtualdub's folder and click on the auxsetup.exe. Click on "install handler" to enable frameserving (I guess you've already done this part). Then, go download the latest subtitle filter here:

http://www186.pair.com/vdub/virtualdub_filters.html#me_subtitler

Open the ZIP file and extract the VDF file into the Plugin folder (that's in the Virtualdub folder). Open Virtualdub, open your AVI file. Click on "Video" and then "Filters". Click "Add" and then click "Load". Go to your Plugins folder and double-click on the VDF file you extracted. Then in the list, double-click "subtitler" and then select your subtitle file in SSA format. After that, do your usual frameserving and then convert like you normally do in TMPGEnc. :) In Virtualdub, you can't edit the subtitles style though. Hope that helped!

I'm trying to convert a divx file to mpeg2 for inclusion on a DVD. I use the NTSC (4:3) settings in tmpgenc and get an mpeg2 which plays in windows media player. When I try to create a DVD filesystem with dvdauthor, I get many warnings:

WARN: Skipping sector, waiting for first VOBU...

then I get:

STAT: VOBU 0 at 0MB, 1PCGS

Then dvdauthor core dumps.
I tried to demux the files with mpgtx then remux with mplex. dvdauthor gets further but then complains that the sound track times go backwards and I should remux. Any ideas? How do I get tmpgenc to include the VOBU sectors?

I'm having a problem with TDA importing DVD video into a project. When I attempt to import a DVD title, the Edit Clip screen declares there's no audio, when in fact I selected an audio stream that was indeed there. This seems to happen randomly.

How can we fix this? I just installed the latest build available on your site and the problem seems more predominant now.

Greetings,

After importing and editing a video in DVD Author, I received the following error when I tried to output the work to DVD:

"The ordinal 373 could not be located in the dynamic link library "PX.DLL".

Any clue to what is causing this? I have uninstalled and installed several times.

I found a solution that worked on a search with Google. The problem was a corrupted px.dll from Winamp. I obtained a good version of the px.dll, copied it to my C:windowssystem32 directory and all is fine.

Now that I know it works, I will purchase the product.

One comment about TMPGEnc.net. A pre-sales tech question ability would be very helpful.

I have the same problem. Where would I obtain the "correct" version of the
px.dll?? I have not installed Winamp so not sure why the existing px.dll is
corrupted?? Thanks for your help.

Trying to produce an ISO from authored DVD files via dvd authors writing tool. Iso icon on worktop disappears and program freezes as the file size approaches 4gb. Is DVD author able to split the file balance over 4gb to a second file as DVDDecrypter when you rip in iso mode, or is it unable to do this?. Its the only thing i can think of thats causing this crash. Any help suggestions.

must have been blind just seen the answer in help file, limit is 4gb.
sorry

i have some divx/xvid movie with 23.976 fps.i want to create svcd (ntsc film)format. which format i should use, interlace or non-interlace?

btw should i select inverse telecine & 3:2 pulldown also?

It's Non-Interlaced.

The correct Settings are:
Encode Mode -> 3:2-Pulldown when playback

Frame rate -> 23.976 fps (internally 29.97 fps)

thanks

Hello all.

Does anyone know how to turn off the deinterlacing for the MS DV codec in DirectX 9?

I just upgraded from DirectX 8.1 to DirectX 9.0b. I did this because I heard that DirectX 9 has a much improved DV codec in it.

There is one problem, it seems that the new Microsoft DV codec in DirectX 9 automatically deinterlaces the video. This is fine if you just want to watch the clip but this is really bad if you want to keep the interlace and encode the video to put on dvd. I thought that it would just deinterlace it in Media Player, but it also deinterlaces it when TMPGEnc opens the file.

I am guessing Microsoft now deinterlaces the video automatically because users were complaining about seeing the interlace lines.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Well I have never heard of This...When I create DV Files they are allways Interlaced even with DX9, I don"t use the Microsoft DV Codec because it really isn"t a very good codec but all of the other DV Codec I use have never had it be Deinterlaced On Decode...If you Load the DV File into Tmpgenc useing the Wizard it will actually analize the File for Interlaced/Progressive and for the Field order but if you Do Not use the WiZard then it will not analize the File and will leave the setting at default which can be Non-Interlace, so try loading into Tmpgenc useing the wizard and see if it really is Non-interlaced, You might try a Different DV Codec also, I get Good results useing the "MainConcept DV Codec" and "DVCPro".....

Thanks Minion. I downloaded the trail version of MainConcept DV codec.

More specifically the MS DV codec performs a BOB on the clip. In my opinion it is very annoying because on clips that have straight edges(for example cartoons) are messed up. If you every used a BOB then you know the effect I'm talking about. When you analyze the clip frame by frame in TMPGEnc there are no interlace lines. When I had DirectX 8.1 and with the MainConcept you can see the interlace lines.

The only settings you adjust for the MS DV codec is the frame size, which I have set to 720x480 using Media Player. I went on the MS Knowledge Base and they talked about this issue. DirectX 9 uses VMR-9 which does an automatic deinterlace. The DV codec in DirectX 8.1 uses VMR-7. From what I can understand from the Knowlege Base is that the deinterlace settings are set at the programming level, in the actual program code. I have found nothing on how to disable the automatic deinterlace in the user settings.

I use FRAPS to record activity in Microsoft Flight Simulator. FRAPS creates very large .avi files. I wish to shrink these down to an acceptable size, in a format that can be read on any computer.

Is this program all I need?

Tmpgenc will Compress the avi to mpeg format ,If that is what you want done then it is what you need....

I'm using Roxio Easy CD Creator and when I try to put a mpg file on a VCD, it says it doesn't work and I need to find a program to convert it. I only found an avi to mpg program, does anyone know what I can do with the mpg?

Try using TMPENC to render it, just put the MPG in the video and audio file inputs, load the VCD template and start it... that should rerender the MPG to a VCD compliant format...

If your Mpeg1 file has the Correct VCD Resolution then you Can probably just Put the Mpeg file through Tmpgenc"s "Simple Multiplex" or "Merge & cut" but with the "Video-CD" setting selected from the Dropdown menu, This will add a VCD Header to the File, But this will only work if the Mpeg1 file is otherwize VCD Compliant....
