I have changed my computer and I have removed a hard disk so I don't have anymore the partition G where I had put the projects that now I have moved in F.
Now I have anymore the partitions C, D, E and F so TMPGEnc Authoring Works 4 doesn't open the projects created before.
Solutions?
Maybe use the windows Administative Tools -> Computer Management -> Disk Management utility to rename the drive partition (e.g., F) to match the old names for the project in questions (G).
You can check where files should be with the Project file check tool. Go to the Start stage-->Advanced Tools-->Project file check tool, and select your project file. It will show the path of the items in your project and whether or not it is present (+ means present, - means not present).
Also, I believe if you try to open a project file and one of the source files are missing, an error window will appear for each missing file. In this window, you can click on the "Browse..." button and reassign the source file if it is in a different location. You will be able to do this for each missing file.
I use AVCHD which is basically a Blu Ray wrapper and the files are m2ts.
When I'm using these files in Adobe encore they don't get transcoded when burning to Blu Ray. Is this the same with TMPG Auh Works 4?
Unfortunately, no. Since AVCHD video is encoded as H.264, it will be re-encoded in TAW4 since TAW4 cannot encode anything as H.264. All output in TAW4 is MPEG-2 or DivX.
You can also check your links if you activate the third button from the left (the one with the arrows <->), or go into the link editor tab in the Menu stage.
Run the Simulation to also check for errors; if there are any overlapping buttons or unlinked items, an error will show up and tell you what page the error appears on.
One hour after my mail the import was ready, but working with the file is very, very slow.
So I started an import with proxy file yesterday evening. Now, 13 hours later the messagebox says 'Proxy file will be checked' (translated from German version) and 0%. In the directory, where the proxy file should be saved, there is until now no file.
Is that correct?
File import time will depend in part on the speed of the source media/drive, the speed of the drive to which you are writing the information, the interface to the drives and such other processes as may be running on the computer that eat into available drive and clock time. Running AV tools can really slow down read times, USB-1 is slower than USB-2, and so on.
Tell us a bit more about your source, destinations, interfaces, and what else is runing on the PC in quesiton.
In a quick test on my system it took about 7 minutes to import a 4.2 GB DVD reading the DVD with the internal DB/DVD writer drive. If this scales linearly, it would take about an hour to import 33 GB.
When I encode an Mpg2 with TMPGEnc Plus 2.5 and import it into NeroVision 9 to author a DVD, I cannot fast forward or rewind the video when I play back the DVD on certain DVD players. I have Nero set up so that it does not re-encode the Mpg2 file. When I encode an Mpg2 with other programs & author in NeroVision 9, fast forward works OK. I'd rather use TMPGEnc because it's a much better encoder.
I want to create some dvd from movies i downloaded, but i can't use the .mp4 ones. I just get to see a black scrren in the cut-edit window and in the simulation part. Can someone help me solve this?
You might need to update QuickTime or download a codec. If you can, use a program like MediaInfo or GSpot to analyze the file. Post the finding here or search for a codec that can decode the video.
I can create CUDA encodes on my machine with no problems and they play on PCs and other media devices. However, my Samsung Galaxy SII refuses to accept the files, regardless of encoding conditions, resolution, bitrate, etc. It merely reports an unsupported file format. Encodes using other software, including Handbrake, work fine. WMV encodes from within VMW are fine (but slow to encode).
Any suggestions about what the problem might be? Generally this phone is reported as playing anything thrown at it.
I have a problem between the demo version and the retail version. When I'm using the demo version I could use toconvert without problem my WTV file and MP4 or MKV . Since I 'm using the retail version I couldn't !!! I haven't got any error message ...
I have forget, the freeze of picture are always between 37 or 40% . For the support it's a conflict with Quictime or FFDshow or Xvid...I don't understand why the demo version work without problem not the retail !!!!
I have not been able to import wtv files since purchasing VideoMasterworks 5. The files seem to import, but the converted files freeze part way in. When I originally purchased TMPGenc Express, I had been using Videoredo to convert my dvrms files. I stopped using it when I switched to Pegasys software, but now I have to use Videoredo to convert wtv files to dvrms. Am I the only one having trouble converting wtv to dvrms? Support doesn't help, but only tells me it must be "some kind of conflict." Videoredo converts them perfectly. I hope a future version of Masterworks 5 fixes this problem.
Did you convert the file to dvrms (by checking the box when importing)?
Whenever one of my wtv files freeze, there is usually video corruption due to a poor broadcast signal. Check the clip editor and see if there are visual breaks around the point where it freezes.
I also cannot encode WTV files, I select my WTV file, I edit out the commercials, by doing this I verify my source recording it fine- no corruption. I am trying to convert to divx. I dont want to convert to dvrms as this is one of the reasons I purchased this software. The first 20min of the encoded video is fine but then it freezes. The encode should take approx 1 hour but finishes to quickly after 20min and the file size it too small- 400MB when it should be 1GB. This happening to all my WTV files, if I convert then to DVRMS first encoding works.
Do you know if the wtv file is MPEG-2 or H.264 encoded? I'm wondering if that might have something to do with it. Broadcasts in my area are MPEG-2 encoded.
As a test, I would suggest checking the convert to dvrms box. If an error comes up during that conversion, then there will definitely be a freeze when you try to encode it later.
>Whenever one of my wtv files freeze, there is usually video corruption due to a poor broadcast signal. Check the clip editor and see if there are visual breaks around the point where it freezes.
I'm not agree !! There is no problem with poor broadcast signal on the DEMO version !!! It's a bug of the retail version !!! The same WTV file are ok in the demo version but bug in the retail !!!
PS: There no problem with MPEG 4 in WTV µI'm leaving in France and use DVB-T
who use MPG 2 and 4
I've noticed Video Mastering Works 5 taking over a minute to load when I have real-time protection turned on in my anti-virus problem, Microsoft Security Essentials.
When I turn real-time protection off, the load time is normal, around 10 seconds.
Anyone else running into this problem? Thanks for any help given!
