I tried the free version of TMPGENC and wish to delete it from my system.

I do not find any referece to it in the control panel delet programs or in the TMPGence file folder.

Does one just delete the files since there were no registry entries?

Thanks-

>Does one just delete the files since there were no registry entries?

yes just delete all files, there are registry entries left over from free version concerning the 30 days free m-peg2 encoding, these entries cannot be deleted

Hello could someone tell me please what I have to do or what I did wrong ?
Am I missing a driver?

I found the problem Thanx anyway :)

Well I downloaded many TV SHOW episodes (star trek, for example).
They are MPG NTSC.
With TMPGEnc DVD Author I can add those files to any track and author a DVD.

The problem is that AUDIO is synced at the beginning bet gets more and more desynced during the playback... at the end of the episode audio is BADLY desynced.

CAn ANYONE HELP ME ?!

Please semd me a shor e-mail !

Is the original source material in sync or not?

Load the source file into "Vitualdub mpeg2" and view a later part of the file where you can see the sync clearly. If it is out of sync you need to re-encode the file before using DVD Author

i got this error message earlier right before it started encoding the file it reads
-error message 00012f40 of module tmpgenc.exe with 20656850-

Please help <any ideas?

Is it XVID?

I encounterd the same problem with an XVID avi file, anybody got any ideas?

Yes, install FFDSHOW then configure it to decode all MPEG4 coded sources such as XVID,DIVX, MS, 3IVX.
Next raise the priority of the 'Directshow file reader' to 2 in the 'VFAPI plugins'.

It seems only able to join some mpegs - i've just tried some and they go out of sync when you join two clips. The sound of clip 2 start about 30 seconds before clip 1 has finished! Why is that?

When I convert a Divx Video file to VCD there is no audio - Why ?

There is a error window(invalid pointer operation) whenever i press to encode or set option.
Can someone help?
thanks

did u get any replies ? it seems like a new message i never got it before and i use it for a few months

>There is a error window(invalid pointer operation) whenever i press to encode or set option
>the ol' divx/xvid error

your source is corrupted or youve used something like divfix on a partially downloaded file or/and........

dont ever use wizard, load ur file manually that may help, also uninstall any evil codec packs (yes they are evil, im a convert) only install the codecs that you actually need. i only ever got that error when a codec pack was installed, but since uninstalling that flith, tmpge runs perfectly, even on my P.O.S p2 350

>When I convert a Divx Video file to VCD there is no audio - Why ?

you have to decompress the audio to wav, then use that wav as your audio source

many many many programs are able to do this including virtualdub

(use the search function next time, this question is asked often)

I just need a simple softward program to convert an avi file from my Canon powershot g5 to a mjpeg file. I don't need audio and the max time is 3 mins. I am having no luck getting the free version to even open one of my avi files, let alone get it to do anything. Help please. As you can tell I am very new to this. Thanks

My source video clip is NTSC 720x480 29.97fps progressive.

I want to encode it to the DVD format so I can watch it on a regular televison and also on my computer. If I encode the clip as progressive, I know it will look jumpy on the regular televison as it needs to be interlaced. If I encode it as interlaced, I am afraid of hurting the progressive quality and introduce interlace lines which would look bad on the computer.

This would be very simple if my source was 24fps as I would just use pulldown.exe to set the flags. But since my source is 30fps progressive and can't be decimated to 24fps, I am confused how to encode it.

Is there some setting I should use in TMPGEnc or perhaps pulldown.exe to properly encode this.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

Encode it progressive. It will not become jerky.
But if it is realy 29.97 fps progressive, it must have be deinterlaced by someone. But that's no Problem, both is possible: 29.97i and 29.97p.

The playback will not become jumpy or jerky if it is true progressive at 29.97 fps (which seems a little strange for that frame rate?)

Your player will play back a progressive stream no problem, but will output an interlaced stream to the T.V.
So just encode at 29.97 progressive.

Thanks for all the help.

The new Canon digital camcorders capture in true 30fps progressive frame.

In the past, the progressive scan option on camcorders was limited to 15fps and then somehow it would be played back at 30fps. But now camcorders are coming to market with true 30fps video.

To me it would make better sense for the camcorder to capture at 24fps and then put pulldown flags to produce the 30fps, that way it keeps with the movie industry and dvd standard. But I don't design camcorders.

I am having trouble trying to convert some WMV files to MPEG1

I have checked the files with AVIcodec and this is what it says about them
File : 55 Mb (55 Mb), duration 0:10:26, type ASF, 1 audio stream(s), quality 28 %
Video : 52 Mb, 708 Kbps, 11.515 fps, res. 480*360 (4:3), WMV3 = Windows Media Video 9, Supported
Audio : 2.54 Mb, 33 Kbps, 44100 Hz, 1 chan., 0x161 = Windows Media Audio 9, Supported

Here are my priorities in TEMPGEnc
Direct show MM reader 2
AVI VFW reader 1
AVI2(open DML) 1 reader 1
MPEG-1 decoder 1
BMP/PPM/TGA/JPG reader 0
Wave file reader 0
QuickTime reader 0
TMPGEnc Project File reader 0

Any idea what I might be missing, or need to change?

>Any idea what I might be missing, or need to change?

you have to convert the audio to wav with something like 'dbpoweramp music converter'(google search it), you'll need to download the wma/wmv codec that can be found at the same site.

when youve converted the file to wav, load that wav as your audio source

and bobs ur fathers brother

Thanks for the suggestion.
The audio isn't the problem. I can extract and convert the audio with either CoolEdit or Goldwave.
The problem is the video portion of the files.

>The audio isn't the problem. I can extract and convert the audio with either CoolEdit or Goldwave

try dbpoweramp because the audio is the problem

tmpge has trouble with wmv apparently, but with dbpoweramp ive never had any problems

as long as you have the mircosoft codecs v3/v2

I have just captured my movie clip for editing into microsoft DV avi format but then I can't use TMPGEnc to convert the file to VCD format but TMPGEnc can't open the file. It doesn't support it. ANyway plug-ins for this?

Thanks.

Is it type 1 or 2? It must be type 2.
You need to convert it if it isn't.
