I'd like to produce a 720x576 MPEG (1 or 2) movie, so that all frames are "positionned" at a specific (X,Y) couple within this video 720x576 plane,
the remaining space being filled by "empty" macroblocks (and not black macroblocks). As a result, the frames displayed do not change existing blocks in the video buffer, giving the impression to the user a reduced video is played at a given position.
This video is to be used on a hardware that does not have positionning functionnality included. Currently if I want to do this for a slice only, I think only a P-Frame is produced, then when I display the slice, only the rectangle I am interested in is displayed by my hardware on its screen. For a slice only, it works.
For a movie, I'd like to start with P-frames only, it's a cheat, but I do not manage to do it (which is rather logical in a way).
Does somebody has an idea of what could be done to produce such a movie ?
Thank you.
trying to demultiplex amovie so i can take it in to spuceup but when i do spuceup only takes in the video and not the audio they are both the same name but the audio after demutiplexing is showing its a movie file instead of an audio file can some one tell me what im doing wrong cheers
I can play mp2 videos on my computer, but whenever I open up an mp2 file to encode it, it says that the file type is not supported. I've got my TV program closed, as well as any media players, but still no luck, what should I do to rectify this problem?
Do you mean Mpeg2?? mp2 is a audio format...You have to have either the "Ligos mpeg2 decoder" or the "Cyberlink mpeg2 decoder" installed on your system before you can load mpeg2 files into tmpgenc...and sometimes it helps if you just load in the Mpeg video(mpv), cuz Tmpgenc doesn"t like compressed Audio...but you need the mpeg2 decoder installed...
The easiest way to do it which will give you an idea is to just encode a regular scene for a minute in the movie and then multiply the result by the amount of minutes in the film or to be more precise encode 5 mins of a regular part of the movie and multiply that by the time length of the movie.
For example a movie which encodes at 13mb/min and is 100 mins in length will roughly be 1300mb in total.
This is not an exact method as there is no method which can be exact, but it will give you something to shoot for and tell you roughly how large the total file size will be.
I was wondering if there is a logo filter out there I can install into tmpgenc.
I know there is a logo filter with virtualdub and I used it already but if there is one for tmpgenc I can skip the step of changing the video into avi with virtuald and than back to mpg with tmpgenc.
When I was encoding a while back, I ran into a piece of bad film in Bad Boys. I was able to splice it, remove the bad part and put it back together again. I thought I did this in VDub, but when I looked for it, there were not tutorials on the subject. The file was freezing in Tmpgenc. Don't remember what I did. Can you point me in the right direction. I have looked in the forums here and vcdhelp.
In the source range in Tmpgenc you can use the "Cut editing" feature to cut certain parts out of the avi file...well actually it just skips encodeing the selected part...
I don"t really understand your Question...You can"t put a DVD formated mpeg on a CD-R..How would you burn such a File???You can only burn vcd/xvcd/svcd/xsvcd/cvd formated Mpeg files on a Cd-R, dvd"s are for DVD"S... and you have to burn these mpeg file with a Program that is specificly for burning vcd/svcd"s...
Also check www.vcdhelp.com and look for your DVD player to see what it supports (VCD, XVCD etc). The type of media brand you use is also important for some players.
You Probably need to raise the "Direct Show File reader".. go to "options" to "enviromental settings" to "vfapi Plugins" and raise the "direct show" to "2"...
i want to select divx to vcd but it only lets me do vcd/svcd
the select stream type wont let me select i dont want a 100 mg divx film to be a 700 mg svcd i just need vcd can someone help me please
thanks
I don"t understand what your problem is...all you do is load your divx file into Tmpgenc then click the "load" button in the bottom Right, then choose the "Ntsc-vcd Template" or the "Pal-VCD template" then click "start" and that is it...there aren"t any settings that say "vcd to svcd"...
IM trying to convert an avi file to mpeg but at a lesser quality like all the other simpson episodes i have are roughly 200 mb but when i try to convert my episodes which are avi they come out to be 500 mb
i should be able to select the quality but the settings area is all grey meaning i cannot select anything
Makeing Non-Standard VCD"s at a lower Bitrate will Give you Terrorable Quality, like Practicly un-watchable, regular VCD"s are practicly un-watchable cuz The Quality is so low ,but if you want to commit Bitrate murder on the Simpsons, you have to load the "Unlock.mcf" template so you can unlock the settings then you can lower the bitrate , but another thing you have to do is change the "System" setting to "Video-CD Non-Standard".....

where do i get this mfc file the one in the templates sends me to the net
when i click the mcf files it doesnt do anything except try to send me to the net to search for the mdf file
how do i unlock the stream file theres 4
unlock.mcf
videocd 1246 kbps(ntsc).mcf
videocd 1246 kbps(ntscfilm.mcf
videocd 1246 kbps(pal).mcf
and thanks for being so kind to answer my questions
The template I am Talking about is in the "Extra" Folder inside the "Templates" folder, and it is Called "Unlock.mcf" you load it by clicking the "Load" tab on the bottom right corner in Tmpgenc, then look for the "Extra" folder in the "templates" folder, then the Settings will be unlocked, or you can go into the Settings and put your pointer over were it says "Bitrate" then "Right Click" it then choose "Unlock", and after this you have to go to "settings" to "system" then choose"Video-CD-Non-Standard" or you file will not get smaller but the quality will get lower....
harrys potter - i have season one of the simpsons in mpg format they are all 22 minutes or so and are about 200 megs where as the avi files of simpsons season 2 when i use tmpeg to make them vcd turn out to be 500 megs or so

That can't be right if you are creating standard VCD. VCD has a constant of 10mb/min so 22 mins would be 220mb not 500mb.
Your are either using a higher CBR bitrate or are using VBR. Either way it can't be a standard VCD.
You need to select a template. The VCD template can be found by clicking the load button. This should bring up a folder containing templates.
Select either 'VideoCD (PAL).mcf' or 'VideoCD (NTSC).mcf' depending on your loacation. If you can't find the template folder then just navigate to your TMPG folder and find the folder named 'Templates'.
These are the standard VCD compliant templates. You may adjust the settings by loading the unlock.mcf template in the Extras folder, but bear in mind this will make the VCD non compliant.
Were did you get the avi file from...If it is downloaded off the net it is probably corrupt...you can try to make a copy of it with " virtual dub" and try to encode that....
I figured it out thanks anyways.
What I did was, wizard was done and then it started to encode, but I stopped it and then changed Direct show to 2, then clicked the start button, instead of changing Direct show before encoding.
