When capturing DV personal files with Scenalyser I create a lot of sequential files. When I want to load them into TmpgEnc with the Option "Open sequence file as a movie", only one part of the files are loaded. It seems that there is a limitation of the maximum number of files (or frame, or time ?).

Can you please check.

Hi

I did a quick test on this and it does only "show" the first file loaded i.e. DV-00001.avi but the encoding runs through the other files as expected.

HTH

Thats right ,you can go to the Source range windeo and moove the slider and see if the all the files are there in the correct order..

Check it using the preview option. File>preview

I have encoded NTSC AVI to DVD MPEG2 video using several different TMPGENC settings (VBR, 2Pass VBR, CBR, High Quality, Video & Film content, etc). All produce videos that jump frames on playback (video runs ok then freezes a few frames then continues). This occurs on different video sources too. The same video sources works fine with ShowBiz and Video Studio encoding. I would like to purchase TMPGENC Plus but can not until I understand why this problem occurs or is fixed.

Any comments suggestions welcome, Thanks

This particular problem Is Usually not a Tmpgenc problem But a problem in how you are encodeing the source file and there can be quite a few different causes for it..It can be that you are encodeing to the Wrong frame rate ..You allways have to encode to the same frame rate as the source file or you will get Jumpy playback..Or it could be because you have the incorrect field order set this causes Jumpy playback..And sometimes while Playing on a DVD Player you can get Bitrate spikes and you dvd player Cant Suddenly spin fast enough therefor causeing the Video to slow down till the Disk can spin at the correct speed, This in some cases can be attributed to Tmpgenc...

Thanks. How can I find out what the source file (AVI in most cases) attributes are? I am using ULEAD Video Factory to author and burn the DVD. Is there any issues there?

Well Usually you can find that out Just by Right Clicking the file and going to "properties"...But if it isn"t listed then you can download a Program called "AVI Info" this will tell you the Files properties..You can find it on Google

Hello,

I purchased a TMPGEncPlus licence and downloaded the installer. But because the installer *requires* a internet connection to install TMPG (Why ??), I was unable to install and use it.
Is there any solution for this ? I can not hook up the machine in question to the net.

thanks in advance,
peter.

You probably need to be hooked up to the net Cuz it varify"s that the serial number isn"t allready used By someone else...what you can try is to install and register it on a Computer that IS on line then copy the files onto a Disk and then put the files on your Non on line computer...That might work..

I have the mpeg files created. How do I actually create the VCD and burn into a CD? I mean all the required directories and files for the VCD.

You have to use a Burning program that is designed for Burning VCD/SVCD"s ..like "Nero" or "VCDeasy"..

I am using the TMPGEnc 2.59, whenever I encounter problems, coding will be aborted automatically. Is there a way to resume coding, rather than overwrite the partially completed mpg file and start from the beginning ?

Thank you.

You can use the "source range" in the "Advanced settings" to start encodeing were Tmpgenc left off and join the parts after encodeing is complete..usually if the encodeing crashes it usually meant that the source file is corrupted in some way...

Hello

I have a 700 mb movie thats encoded in a Xvid Avi format. How can I split it? I have tried a Avi chopper but it freezes everytime. Is there anyway to split it with TMPGENC or another program? I can't encode then split because it will take a whole 24 hours and I dont' have the time right now, so if i split then encode I can do it over a period of 2 days or something. Any suggestions? I appreciate any help.

Thanks
ArcaneAvenger

You don"t need to split it Just use the "Source Range" in the "Advanced Settings" this will let you encode the movie in Parts...You must have a Really slow CPU if it takes 24 hours to Encode a Movie...You can Get a New 2ghz p-4 with everything accept a Monitor for under $300 us...

Hello

Ok i have a DVD where i have recorded a from an Analog Source to DVD
Now the original tape is gone I am just left with DVD, i need to be able to convert VOB to MPEG2 stream so i can import it into something like Pinnacle Studio 8 to do some editing.

Please help me how to do that.
VOB are not ecrypted or anything like that, it's a home video that was recorded to DVDR

Thanks

If there is Just one audio track and it is Mpeg audio then you can probably get away with just renameing the Vob file to Mpeg..But you realize that Pinnacle studio is not a Mpeg editor and it will re-encode the files therefore looseing Most of any quality you have and it will take Quite a long time to output the edited file Cuz they will be re-encoded...If you want to edit the Mpeg file you should use a real mpeg editor that will not re-encode the file...You can use Tmpgenc"s Mpeg tools for that But it doesn"t allways work But Womble Mpeg2VCR is fairly good But I still prefer Cyberlink Power Director 2.5...

Hi

I have rather lost track of the various postings about the Muxing error in version 2.59 and would very much appreciate a summary in respect of my questions below.

I intend to create PAL DVD MPEG2 files for burning with my new (when I get it) DVD burner.

Does the muxing problem affect all file types - VCD, SVCD and DVD?

I will likely be using Ulead Plugin included with MSP6.51a to start with and later DVD Workshop or Factory. Depends on features and price in the UK!

I hope ASHY or Minion can summarise the issue in relation to the file type(s) and the Ulead products?

Incidently, are there any DVD creation programs that are not affected by the Muxing error?

Many thanks

Thye muxing bug is only affecting MPEG1 files. TMPG is using the standard VCD muxing rate for all VCD MPEGs regardless of the setting. This causes problems with playback.
MPEG2 doesn't seem to be affected.

ASHY

Hi ASHY

Many thanks for summarising the issue for me.

You have given renewed confidence in the program.

I am going down the DVD (MPEG2) route because all my efforts with MPEG1 did not produce a good enough quality of viewable movie.

Thanks again.

I got the error message when I tried to load saying can't load P3package.dll. How to I get the movie to convert?

Thanks
Danae

If you moved the TMPGEnc out of the folder that you unzipped it from it will do that , because that "P3package.dll" is missing or nowhere around. Did you move the TMPGEnc or delete any files that came out of that program/folder?

I got the same error message when I tried to run program out of the WinZIP window before extracting. Once I extracted all the files to a folder and ran the program, no problems.

I converted an avi file into mpg, but i don't have sound on the mpg file...
what's that problem?

thx

You probably need to extract the audio to a WAV file with something like "Virtual Dub" and use that as the audio source...

batch support for merge and cut whould be very very nice and usefull

Hello.
Batch support?
Is this relevent to my question?
Thanks,
Will

PS : sorry for my english but i'm french and i don't use english often

Try to reinstall you XVID codec, it is some damages XVID packages on the NET, especially if downloaded from KAZAA.

Try download the "NIMO codec package" or "XVID Codec for WIN32". The last one contains AVIC (FourCC Changer) utility that will allow you to change your XVID file to be recognized as DIVX.
