I am trying to encode a TGA sequence and getting nothing but trouble.
The trouble is what I found over and over again on this board, slight jerky motion, only on interlaced frames. When playing in WMP (Windows Media Player) its so slight you can barely tell its there, the second it hits my DVD Player its crazy screwed.
The source has Interlaced and Non Interlaced frames in it, basically I am writing them out from a Velocity (editing system) some of the video is coming from TV some from film, some from game cinematics, so basically its a miserable source and there is nothing I can do about that.
So I am treating the whole thing as though its non interlaced.
Its acting like the fielding is bad, but I have tried every combination I can till my head is spinning, interlaced and non with source and output as well as reversing the fields back and forth.
Summing, NonInterlaced works like a charm, its only the interlaced stuff thats screwed... I simply dont get it. I actually had this working a few months back but didnt save any settings and havent played with it in that time so I forgot it all anyhow.
You can't mix interlaced and non interlaced Video and encode it in progressive Mode.
You have two choices:
Deinterlace the interlaced Part and encode progressive.
Encode all the Stuff in interlaced Mode (the better choice).
Maybe you should just use an area based or adaptive de-interlacer such as the ones that come with AVIsynth or Virtualdub.
These work by looking for interlace lines in each individual frame and therefore will only de-interlace the frames needed to be de-interlaced. You can then simply frame serve the material to TMPG.
Encoding all as interlaced should work as the field order is correct. If it doesn't then maybe you should try frame serving through AVisynth or Virtualdub anyway to see if it handles it any better.
Correction:
>Encoding all as interlaced should work as the field order is correct
Encoding all as interlaced should work as long as the field order is correct.
OK, so my DVD has a main menu and 3 sub-menus. For some reason, when you open my third sub-menu on a standalone DVD player, you can't select/click any of the buttons! For some reason, however, it works on a DVD-ROM drive! I think this may have something to do with compatibility, when i was building the DVD imagine it said "compatiblity: pc-based software dvd players"... is this the problem? if so, how do i change it to work on a standalone? if not, what is the problem?? any help would be greatly appretiated!! thankyou!!!
Hi, I just got a new home theater [I had a multi format read-everything no name DVD player before]. Most of my SVCDs work fine - I encoded those back at my parent's house. And now I can't encode a single working SVCD at my computer using the same exact software and same CD-Rs. I don't know if it's a burner, or TMPGEnc, or Nero but here's what happens. I burn the 1st part of the movie on a disk and that disk usually reads fine on my theater which is by the way Panasonic SC-HT700 and then the 2nd part of the movie encoded and burned in the same exact way doesn't [there's digital lines all over the screen and sound gets distorted - unwatchable]. I just don't know what the problem is - 1st part reads fine but it's always the 2nd CD that's choppy [same exact DivX]. Help anyone?
It sounds like an error in your Mpeg4 codec, Maybe try re-installing the Mpeg4 codec or installing "FFDShow Decoder" and configure it to decode Mpeg-4 files...Cheers
That encoder seems to only be For Mac and allmost all encoders use an adaptive GOP structure cuz all Gop structures vary somewhat depending on the source file, That encoder doesn"t seem like anything really special and it doesn"t seem to have any thing really that much different than other High end encoders but being on the Mac Platform I guess we will never know...Cheers
I have been using TMPGenc perfectly for months, then one day it took 30 minutes to just START the app (disc drive spinning like crazy, 100% cpu load). Once loaded it would take another 30 mins to load a DVD or MPEG file. After that processing was normal again, around 14 hrs for 90 min of video.
Any ideas why the excessive load and browse times? I've deinstalled and reinstalled to no avail. No further hardware changes to the PC.
Well if it is Takeing a Long time to load Mpeg2 or Vob files then i would go to "options" to "enviromental settings" to "vfapi plugins" and Raise the Priority or the "CRI Mpeg2 decoder" to say "2"...But if that doesn"t help then I would do it the Proper way and Not load the Vob or Mpeg2 files into Tmpgenc, Instead I would use "DVD2AVI 1.76" to Frameserve the Mpeg2 video to Tmpgenc, This is Much Faster than Loading the Mpeg2/Vob files directly into Tmpgenc and I seems to get better results this way....But if you do not want to learn a better way which a Lot of Poeple don"t you can try installing this Mpeg2 decoder for Tmpgenc:"http://www.marumo.ne.jp/mpeg2/m2v_vfp-0.6.42.lzh" I think it is better than the one that comes with Tmpgenc and it comes with a simple Mpeg editor...Cheers
When i'm starting TMPGEnc the following window appears:

I am usung the wizard in tmpgenc to create a DVd for ntsc tv.
the movie files are divx which i have downloaded...
Is there a way to tell what the source video settings should be with out guessing. I think tmpgenc detects the wrong ones. I would like to know how to be able to tell what the original aspect ratio and frame settings are in the source file. Also, should the output file aspect ratio be the same as the source, in other wards if it is 19:6 can i make it 4:3...etc?
thanks
I re-encoded avi into mpeg and noticed that the audio get shifted substantially (2 sec) toward the beginning (sound before action).
The shift occured rigt from the very beginning (the sound starts earlier that in should).
This is really frustration, since there is no way to test this before the whole job is done.
Are there any ways to make sound-video sync less enigmatic and less problematic?
My second question is about the automatic source setting. The user below was advised not to trust TMPGEnc automatic settings in the source stream because it "usually get sit wrong". Isn't it outrageous? Is there a simple and detailes explanation of these options? Also Video movie or Film movie. Although explained in help, its still unclear. If I have an DivX avi with a 23.97 fps animation, is it "Video" or "Film"? When I say Film, TMPG perforem reverse telecine to convert it to NTSC. Why? Shouldn't it telecine it to convert from to the higher NTSC 30fps rate?
23.976 FpS is FILM-Source. TMPGEnc can handle this fine, but you have to do some preparations.
Settings -> Advanced -> Do not Frame rate conversion
This have to be activated.
Setting -> Video
Set Encode Mode to 3:2 pulldown when playback
Set Frame rate to 23.976 (internally 29.97 fps)
