Hey guys,

I have a short avi that I want to convert to mpg. However, when I try ot do this, the output video is messed up, but the audio plays fine. The video has a black bar across the top half of the picture. The bottom half is a partial inverted mirror image of the actual video with no colour and multiple vertical lines. This only occurs with a small number of files I have tried converting. Has anyone ever encountered this before? What's going on and how can I fix it.

Thanks,
Dereck

I am trying to convert a movie i have downloaded from Shadow Movie Realm. When i try to open any movies to convert them with TMPGEnc it says the movie cannot be opened or is unsupported. what is the problem?

I had the same trouble, this is what Minion told me to do:

Have you tried Raiseing the Priority if the "Direct show File Reader"??Go to "options" to "Enviromental Settings" to "Vfapi Plugins" and raise the "Direct show" to "2"...

It worked for me, good luck.

Hi, I am using TMPGEnc 2.57 plus, with a valid registration #, but I try to load mpge2 file i got message saying that cannot open or not supported! can anyone help? thanks

The MPEG2 feature refers to encoding and not decoding. You will need one of the MPEG2 codecs listed on the Pegasus site.

I am trying to convert a divx .avi to an mpeg that I plan to burn to a VCD. I split the .avi into a video and .wav file. When I try to use TMPGEnc 2.59.47.115 to make the mpeg, I get the error "....wav", can not open or unsupported. The .wav file plays just fine in Windows Media Player, WinAmp, etc., so I don't have any idea what the problem is.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Eric

are u sure its a wav file? "save wav" in virtual dub does not guarantee its a uncompressed wav. U must select full processing mode for audio in virtual dub and also select no compression(PCM) under compression..or its will just be in whatever audio formatt it was in in your avi...

Hi, I hope someone can help me !!!
Every time I tried to convert an avi to s-vcd, when TMPGEnc reached 50%, I got this error "stream read error" !!!!

What I can do to solve this trubble ??

TNX to all for reply

I have the same problem trying to de-multiplex an m2p file on WinXP. But I don't have any clue to solve it.

Sorry.

I AM DOWNLOADING THE PANASONIC MPEG ENCODER & THE HONESTECH MPEG MPEG ENCODER HOW DO THEY STAND UP AGAINST TMPG?

How do they stand up Well they don"t stand up at all, they don"t even get on there knees..They Both Suck really badly..Panasonic is the better out of the two but they both aren"t even close as good as tmpgenc..

THANKS
THAT IS GOOD TO KNOW I AM ALWAYS TRYING TO FIX THINGS THAT ARENT BROKEN

Fix your keyboard then. It seems to have it's Caps lock stuck.

I tried to convert this one file, and the projected mpeg was much larger than it should be. Also, the sound doesn't come through. Is it possible that the file is protected?

Oh nvm. i used virtual dub to take out the wav and then created a new thing. whoopee....

i have 2 mpeg files. how can i make one file out of this 2 files?

If they are Both exactly the same you Can join them with the Mpeg tools "Merge & Cut"...

Say I cut one mpeg into two. Are these two new files recompressed?

Thanks

What do you mean Re-Compressed?? The are exactly the same as the file you Cut...

Sorry, I'm used to unix programs--which recompress each file. Files split w/ tmpeg are the same quality of the original? I guess that was my original question.

I doubt even Unix programs would need to recompress the file either.

The cutting is done at a binary level. So any operating system should be able to cut without re-compressing.

tryng 2 use tmpgenc says cant load p3 package.dll when i pess start wot does this mean and how do i get round it

All the files that come with tmpgenc have to be in the same folder and not sitting on your desktop...

MY TRIAL PERIOD HAS ENDED IS IT POSSIBLE THAT THIS IS WHY I AM HAVING THIS PROBLEM THE FILES I AM TRYING WERE TESTED BEFORE WITHOUT A PROBLEM.

If the trial has ended then you can"t encode to Mpeg2 anymore But you should be able to encode to mpeg1/VCD forever...have you tried raiseing the "Direct show"???

THANKS EVERY THING WORKING FINE AGAIN

When I try to open a DVD2AVI project file, it says "cannot open or unsupported"... I've formatted my PC last week... and after that I couldn¡­t load the DVD2AVI project¡­s into TMPGEnc (as I made before).

Do you know how to solve this?

Thanks!

Did you copy DVD2AVI.vfp into the TMPGEnc-Folder?

I am trying to convert a movie i have downloaded from Shadow Movie Realm. When i try to open any movies to convert them with TMPGEnc it says the movie cannot be opened or is unsupported. what is the problem?
