okay had this happen before and got it fixed... but can't seem to fix it this time.

im converting xvid and divx to mpeg2(svcd) and losing the sound. directshow is at 2. have not changed codecs or anything only things i have installed since it quit working is games: praetorian, alpha centuri.

also now when i do the project wizard and select an avi it only puts the avi in the video box and not the audio box even tho it has audio in it, its doing this with movies that it used to work with...

and in the batch encode list it reports not compatible or unsupported but again these are files that have worked previously and i know them to be good.


ashy  2005-02-03 22:17:33 ( ID:xokv4ugpkyc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Is it AC3? Do you have the AC3 ACM decompressor installed?


LogixSR  2005-02-04 11:11:25 ( ID:dvufndgskew )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

yea i have the needed codecs and all. this is the second time this has happened to me... last time i had to uninstall everything i could(codecs, autogk, tmpgenc+, etc..) and reinstall for it to start working again... didnt work this time. its not the movies and it shouldnt be any of the codecs im using the same stuff i always have and never had a problem till now...

anyways to give you an idea of what i have heres a list of installs...

TMPGEnc Plus 2.524.63.181 w/ Core version 2.04.169
AC3Filter
AutoGK
AviSynth 2.5
DivX Pro 5.2.1
ffdshow
Morgan Stream Switcher
VobSub
XviD 1.0.3 Final
DVD Decrypter
VCDEasy
Cyberlink PowerDVD
RealPlayer(never use just always been there)
Windows Media Player 10
Lame
tooLame(which i am going to try using for my audio in tmpgenc)

And this is how TMPGEnc Plus is in Enviro Settings
General:
Enable multiplex with "mux.....
Open sequence files as a movie....
Enable reading referrd format avi....

CPU:
all enabled
prefetch at 16
analyzing result is at 4000 MB

Audio Engine:
mpeg-1 layer II - use built-in
mpeg-1 layer III - do not use
sampling at high quality

VFAPI:
Directshow 2
AVI VFW compatibility reader 0
AVI2(OpenDML) 0
CRI Sofdec MPEG Decoder 0
Microsoft MPEG-1 Decoder 0
Wave File Reader 0
TMPGEnc Project File Reader 2.525 0
ReadAVS.dll "file cannot be loaded" unchecked
DVD2AVI.vfp "file cannot be loaded" unchecked
BMP/PPM/TGA/JPG File Reader -1 unchecked
QuickTime Movie Reader -1 unchecked

And to Encode I normally use the wizard...
Super Video-CD, NTSC, VBR standard format
browse for divx/xvid, shows up in video and audio, content is video movie typically.
Source Ranger, Move to End, Set End, Next
Expert, Video VBR Setting, Max 2500, Min 600, 2 Pass
CD-R 80min, Makes file size 200%(or 100% if its a smaller one but normally 200%), next
thats it encode or batch(normally batch)

pretty straight forward XViD/DivX to SVCD and when I convert from DVD to XViD/DivX using AutoGK first followed by TMPGEnc to SVCD

I'm letting it run again while I sleep to see if the gremlin is gone... but I doubt it.

From what I can see you don't have the AC3 ACM decompressor you only have AC3 filter.
This doesn't always work.

Install the AC3 ACM decompressor and that should solve your problem.

Try raising the VFW reader to top priority. The AC3ACM decompressor works with VFW not Directshow.

okay I really am lost now... can't even play the svcd mpeg's anymore, bsplayer/wmp sees them as audio files tries to play them as such and fails... also now tmpgenc is telling me some files are unsupported and others are... im on the verge of giving up on this program.

The way I see is that you've made a pigs ear of things on your system installing every codec under the sun.
Seen it before on many occasions.
I only ever install the bare essential codecs and never have problems like this.

My advice is to remove all the codecs you have on your system and start afresh.
Oh and another thing, installing Windows mediaplayer 10 is another sure fire way of fooking everything up.


LogixSR  2005-02-05 03:12:52 ( ID:dvufndgskew )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

ashy  2005-02-05 13:25:01 ( ID:xokv4ugpkyc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Remove all your DIVX and XVID codecs and install FFDSHOW.
If you need a suitable MPEG2 codec for TMPG then use the one below:

okay i don't know whats goin on.. prior to reading your message I uninstalled everything I could leaving ony TMPGEnc and DivX Pro 5.2.1, DVD Decrypter. Reinstalled AC3ACM and Xvid, reset the enviro settings in tmpgenc and let it run on a movie, well i open the svcd movie this morning and its all there... gonna reinstall AutokGK and only the necessaries without reinstalling divx or xvid or any other codecs and do another one and see if we are still go.


LogixSR  2005-02-05 16:09:10 ( ID:dvufndgskew )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

It appears everything is working again, can hear sound through tmpgenc plus for xvid with ac3 or mp3 sound and divx with ac3 and mp3... and so far xvid's ive converted last night/today only had ac3 but there is an mp3 xvid working now and i put a divx with both in list after that... but anyways i can hear the audio in the audio edit and see it in source range again which tells me things are working again.

My enviro settings are like this again:
DirectShow 2
avi2(opendml), bmp/ppm/tga/jpg, cri sofdec, ms mpeg-1,wave file reader, tmpgenc project file reader 0
avi vfw compat reader -2

internal mpeg-1 layer II, no layer III, high quality

Only programs I know of being installed are:
TMPGEnc Pro 2.54, AC-3 ACM Decompressor, WinAMP 5.08d, DivX Pro 5.2.1, XViD 1.0.3, DVD Decrypter. WMP9 is on the system but havn't setup, removed WMP10.

Well i'm gonna get all these things converted so I can install AutoGK and continue.

I really appreciate your assistance ashy and hope what we did here will help someone else.

i start off with an avi. i want to convert it to a mpeg 1 for a vcd. i clip off the head and tail for size and then i want to make an adjustment to the bitrate, but the settings in the video tab are greyed out. why is this?

second, what would be the settings, if i want to creat a DVD with letterbox? thus maintaining the 16:9 aspect ratio?

last, what is the xpress 3.0 version?

Has anyone encountered the same problem: I have an avi file, and TMPGEnc will let me upload it as an audio source and convert that to mpeg, but won't let me select it as a video source. It says file can't open, or unsupported. Any resulting mpeg file only has sound, and no visual.

Hi!
My TMPGEnc will not open .avi-files for convertion. That is, it opened and converted the first file, and it worked perfectly, but after that, it has not been able to open any files, not even the one it had already converted. I get the following message after selecting file for conversion. "File "[...]" can not open, or unsupported." Any ideas on how to avoid this problem?

I had this problem. I fixed it by setting dirct show multimedia file reader to highest priority in vfapi plugins in environmental settings. I am pretty sure it's because my file was xvid yet I do not have the codec, relying on direct show to render it using ffdshow. Maybe your problem too??

I have a VCD that the author wants widely distributed. It's video from a presentation. How can I copy the disk so that it works in my dvd player? The original works fine, but I have not been able to find a method to duplicate the disk that allows me to drop it in the DVD player and have it auto-run.

Thanks.

Question - 42min Xvid video being read as 150mins? Also, audio probs. No.42759
SecretAgentDaisy  Home )  2005-01-26 04:48:29 ( ID:nolo8deyhrc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Hey I'm really new to all this conversion stuff. So forgive me if I'm being ignorant of anything. I've been searching the forums and google, but I don't know how to describe whats wrong in a short search statement, so I'm not getting good results.

Anyway, I have a several 42-45min Xvid encoded videos that I'm trying to convert to .mpg files so I can put them on dvd's or cd's. I don't have the original source files, so the Xvid ones I have to convert. However, when I go through the wizard to convert the videos it keeps reading these 42min. videos as 150+ minutes therefore making the file sizes insanely large and un-able to put on a single DVD let alone a CD. The original Xvid files are about 350-400MB so I don't see why these .mpg files should be sizes like 1GB (and sometimes over 4GB if I try the DVD section!) I would even be willing to settle for 1 video per cd, but there's got to be something I'm doing wrong or missing. I even tried the tutorial at afterdawn.com, and still got a very large file size. Any suggestions/tutorials anyone can point out?

Also, when I convert the videos I am not getting any sound. I would think in the wizard it would automatically figure that in, but I also tried manually and clicked on the System (Video+Audio) radio button, still no sound. I even trie the ES Audio only option, again no sound. I installed the unlock.mcf mentioned elsewhere in this forum, but had no luck with that. I'd appreciate any help anyone can give.

I have the exact same problem. 100 minute video showing up as like 300 minutes long so the smallest I can get it is like 7.5gb. This is starting to get frustrating. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Jay,

Here's where I found the answer to my problem on this board. I'm sure it'll help you:

http://bbs.pegasys-inc.com/bbscgi/ebbs/board.cgi?board=tmpgenc&page=1#topic28637

My sound also works now. However, my 350-400MB Xvid files are still coming out around 700MB (and the files are, as stated before, only 40-45mins long). The current Xvid files have a resolution of 608x336 and when I watch them on my TV (I have a DivX enabled DVD player) the picture is just fine and I don't notice hardly if any pixelation. However, I'm trying to make a VCD or DVD for a friend without a DivX enabled player, which is my reason for trying to convert these files. So, is it possible to get a similar resolution with MPEG that won't double the file size? If so, I'd appreciate the help in knowing the best way to do this.

I know these files can be the same size as the Xvid ones and be good quality because I got 2 vids from someone else a while back that were 350MB each and showed up just fine on my TV. I'm just trying to figure out how to achieve this. Thanks for any help in advance.


ashy  2005-01-27 17:44:06 ( ID:xaky0um6ad2 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

An MPEG1/2 file will NEVER have the same output quality size for size compared to an AVI.

It's just not possible.
VCD uses 10mb per minute and even that quality isn't perfect.

Also the file size of the source bears no realtion to the output size of the MPEG whatsoever.
It is time length that is the important factor for output size.
If it's for your friend you need to start using the VCD template. This will automatically resize your AVI to the correct dimensions for VCD.

Your aim should be to fill the disk you are using. If you are using 80 min disk then you can fill up to 800MB.
With a 45 min AVI you will be able to use a higher bitrate than standard VCD bitrate. You may even get away with making a SVCD on 1 disk.

Learn about VBR encoding. Higher quality for less file size is obtainable with VBR encoding.

I've exported a file from flash to a .mov quicktime file. The original window is 550 x 400. I then use TMPGEnc Plus to make the mp2 file combining it with the audio wav file. It looks good when I play it on the computer. I then use the TMPGEnc DVD authoring program to make the dvd. It reports the size as 720 x 480. I've tried all sorts of settings in TMPGEnc Plus and they all turn out the same. I play the "DVD" created by the DVD authoring tool on the computer and it looks fine. I play it in a real dvd player and it's cropped off on all four sides!

I'll even pay someone $5 if their solution fixes my problem!


B_Racer  2005-01-26 09:53:17 ( ID:0jd4rmr3tyn )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

720x480 ist standard-DVD-resolution, that's OK.
And the cropping of the Picture is also normal. Do a research on tv overscan and you will see, that any TV has an Overscan-Area which is not visible. It can be up to 32 Pixel on any side of the Screen. It's the same like the Safe-Area for DVD-Menus you see by using TDA.

Cindy Lam  2005-01-25 03:25:03 ( ID:jmyr61albfk )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I have a wmv file size 1.12 GB, I use TMPGEnc Plus 2.5 to convert to VCD NTSC:
- I convert entire file, first 50% takes 1-1,5 hour. But the last 50% is very slow, it takes 10-15 hour to complete.
- I convert first 50% by selecting source range, it's ok. But when using source range for the last 50%, it takes long time to convert (10-15h)
In both cases, for the first 50% TMPGEnc uses 90-100% CPU, but the last 50% it seems not use CPU at all.
Pls help me!!! How could I convert file faster???

Thank in advance,

Try AVIsynth, it has the ability to read this crappy WMV-Shit corretly.

DreitShowSource("this_film.wmv, "FPS=xxxx")
ConvertToRGB24()


That's all. Change the xxxx to the correct Framerate of the Movie.


ashy  2005-01-25 18:45:58 ( ID:x5qvy6eaqs. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Try increasing the 'Directshow file reader' priority to 2 and make it top of the list in the VFAPI plugins.

If not use AVISYNTH as suggested.

>DreitShowSource("this_film.wmv, "FPS=xxxx")
>ConvertToRGB24()

This is not correct.
It should read:

DirectShowSource("this_film.wmv","FPS=xxxx")
ConvertToRGB24()

The origin movie: MPEG-1 352x264 29,97fps CBR 1150kbps, Layer-2 44100Hz 192kbps and 207990kb long.
I need to cut it into small movies:
MPEG-1 320x240 23,976fps CBR 500kbps, Layer-2 44100Hz 96 kbits and around 1.5 mbs long (15 seconds).

What should i do? I set the output settings, then i go to Merge&Cut. But here i see that i can create only 1 output file!!? Should i make small movies by hand, one after another? Or can i make it automatically?



Dirk Herijgers  2005-01-25 10:20:20 ( ID:lilcnhjltvk )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Garou,

Indeed; in "merge & cut" you place 1 file, then click on "Edit" and set the start and stop time.

After that,click run.
You have to do this for each part of the file.

Dirk


ashy  2005-01-25 18:32:32 ( ID:x5qvy6eaqs. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

You can't use TMPG for this.
You can use the file processor in DVtool to do this.

Ok, thanks for the solution,

But I don't understand why a clean computer can open the file in TMPGenc, and a computer with "removed" PowerDVD can not open the file anymore.

Can you explain this to me ?

Dirk


ashy  2005-01-24 20:53:14 ( ID:ni6wpa2em.l )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Somehow you will have an MPEG2 codec installed on your clean PC.
Either from another software application or you're maybe using TMPGENC Plus on your clean PC.

It's easy to see which codec is actually being used by downloading Graphedit.
Graphedit is a visual filter graph tool.
Just open the MPEG2 file with Graphedit and it will render the file with whatever filters it has available on the system.

Ashy,

Yesterday, I did a few tests, and this are the (unsuspected) results:

- I try to open whatever MPEG2-file in TMPGenc. This al goes bad. (in the main screen and in de MPEG-tools-merge & cut), but the file can be play in WMP.

- Then I open first a MPEG-1 file in the main screen of TMPGenc. After this I can open any MPEG-2 file in the main screen. I have also to open first a MPEG1 file in the MPEG-Tools in Merge & Cut + clicking on <edit>, before i can open an MPEG-2 file.

This is strange ! It looks that I have to "initiate" first something, before it works correctly.

PS: When I try to open the MPEG2 file with GraphEdit, it will not open. Which filters do I have to use ?

You don't have to choose any filters if you have the right MPEG2 codec installed. Graphedit should automatically chose the right one.
However the MPEG2 VFAPI plugin is application specific and not a general MPEG2 codec, so graphedit will not use it for decoding MPEG2 files.

What is the error you are getting when trying to open MPEG2 files in TMPG?

Where are these MPEG2 files from?

Ashy,

a) Files are captured from Super-Hi8 camara with a TV-Capture Card. I use these files now for 2 years, and it always works.

b) After opening first mpeg1, I can open mpeg2 without problem, but I have to open mpeg1 first in the mpeg-tools section of TMPGenc, and click on <Edit>. This is a strange behauvior.

c) Opening the mpeg2-files with GraphEdit is working without problem, but I got a mix of codecs on the wrong computer (Cyberlink - Margan etc), but on the correct computer, the used codecs are all Cyberlink. How can I change the settings on the wrong computer ? (I have already de-install en re-install Cyberlink, but this does not change anything.

If you have XP go to Start>settings>control panel>sounds and audio devices>hardware>video codecs>properties
Then just delete the codecs you don't want.

Ashy,

Problems seems to be solved by downloading the
"BoliGego Codec Manager 1.0.4.1".

After installing all the codecs, I got the same errors like "claud.ax" but now with "ivi....". Running again this codec manager, but disabling the "ivi" files, and after that it works again.

Thanks for advice.

Dirk

Those are WinDVD codecs. If you disable them your DVD player software will not work.

I'm not sure why you are having such problems with your MPEG2 files, but a solution would be to use DVD2AVI to create a .d2v project file from the MPEG then load that into TMPG.
