I have a bunch of videos that are 352x240 and when i burn them to a Vcd and play them in my Dvd player the picture is all stretched and blurred. They only look good shrunk down in their original size on my computer. So i have 2 questions.

1. Is there a way to convert them so they don't get stretched and stay their original size?

2. Or is there a way to put Black Borders around them so they don't get stretchced.

Thanks

I have little to ask or complain about because TMPGenc, Editor, and Author work so well. Still, here is a question that I cannot find an answer to in Help or anywhere else:

How does 'Motion Search Precision' work. Other than doubling the processing time, what does 'High - with error correction' do in the code? Why does it increase the bitrate? Thx.

===========================================================================
From TMPGenc Help:

High - Does a more accurate motion search than standard. This will search a wider range of motion. The bitrate will increase than standard, so it is not suitable for making low bitrate clips.

Highest (With error correction) - The most accurate motion search. This will also correct the detection errors. The search will take long but will be able to detect the motion very accurate. This will also increase the bitrate.

How do I use TMPGENC to encode jpg files to mpg files.
Also can this be done in batch mode ?
I am ok with avi to mpg but jpg to mpg has me puzzled . Using version 2.5

Thanks

hello all ive been useing tmpgenc 2.5 plus for a wile now and i just recently have been haveing a audio problem were all you hear is a tick noise on any video you put in the conveter i haver messed around with the settings to see if i can fix it but it did not help so if ANYONE has ANY info concerning my problem much abliged if you could share it with me. tmpgenc 2.5 plus is the best video converter i have ever used or seen and i would hate to have to use another video converter that is not tmpgenc 2.5 plus so plez anyone asist me

Please see my comments/questions at the end of Nick's excellent thread, "PAL DV-AVI source files not read correctly" (even though PAL had nothing to do with the problem, which, I'm guessing, was an oversight by TMPG to change a registry key).

I don't think it's a problem with the program, but something is wrong with the header data in your source file dumbass

Will TMPGEnc 2.5 ever be updated to High Definition encoding? It's been almost 2 years all ready.

sory about my inglish becouse im brazilian
a would like to know if a can save my progress and start it later

could u send the answer for my mail?
thaks

hi,

I just bought the product XPRESS, and put the disk in, but
it is not being recognized. I'm running W2K.

I had downloaded the "free" tmpgenc, but it didn't seem to be able
to encode a fairly largish file, 2.3 Gb, so I went out and bought
the product.

I would have downloaded it, but I already did that 3 years ago, and
cannot locate my license number, and the msg I left for the support
line hasn't been returned (I've left 2x). Also the support web address,
www.tmpg-inc.com/support/
didn't work.

How to proceed?
Dang. I spent WEEKS of time off work making this video
dang.

the proper support and update area is here
http://tmpgenc.pegasys-inc.com/en/support/index.html

I don't think anyone reads this forum other than a handful of users

Hi All

I had to reinstall TMPGenc after a format anf everytime I try to convert a avi file to svcd the out put file is almost 3gig were as before it was converting to about 1.2 gig,

Thanks in advance for any help

Hey,
well, i had the same problem. you gotta go in setting> advanced > source range( click twice) > then, you edit ur files like you want :P

Is there anyplace to download profiles?
I just want to convert HD mpg files into WMVHD files and loose nothing (i.e. keep the 5.1 audio).
Tnx!

I have been searching and have not found any. There are a handful of guides out there, but none that I have seen on version 4.0 yet. I have been working on doing the same thing with DVD to WMA. I think I have it down pretty well, I just need to see how it looks in HD. If you ask me, I think Tmpg-inc (or someone else) should create a site where users could post their templates (profiles) and people could freely download them and rate them while making comments or suggestions. The best templates would float to the top of the rankings and people could greatly benefit from them. I think a feature like this would help to sell more of the company's product and therefore be very beneficial to them.

I agree. 4.0 xpress is very adjustable, which means it's very miss-adjustable. There needs to be some guidence on how the various perameters are selected.

I'm looking at this product to reduce the bitrate of HD (1080i) home movies so they can be played from a 16X DVD player and still preserve the best HD quality I can. I've been fussing with the trial version for a few days, but I'm about ready to give up. Some guidence would help, or a profile that has been optimized.

I bought the DIVX pro codec to use with Tmpgenc 4.0, but so far I've gotten better results by just using the the little DIVX converter I bought as well.

I like the TMPGEnc encoding better in many ways. But i fail to get the same levelmapping for my RGB files, that are possible in CCE with a lumens setting of 0-255, instead of 16-255 so i can keep the desired dynamic range.

Is it somehow possible to force/change TMPGEnc Xpress 4.0 to use 0-255 level mapping as CCE does, and how is it done?
