I believe it was an old AVI restriction (which is what DivX is based on). Newer versions of the DivX codec can have larger files I think. Try downloading the latest DivX codec and use the AVI output format and select the DivX codec (i.e. don't use 4.0 XPress' preinstalled DivX output format). That should work.
Hello,
I want to ask a question.
I want to make as an AVI video ,but there are so many encode options.
What do i choose for video(cinepack,intel 5....) and audio (56kb 22000hz....)settings?
Also is this sharp filter really works?If my video is blur will it make it clear?
It's really up to you which one you choose. What is the intended use of the video? That can help inform what codec you should use. If you're not sure, you may just want to use the DivX codec.
Does it have to be AVI? MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 output might be another format to take a look at.
Settings are also up to you and should really depend on the intended use of the video and the quality/format of the source file.
What are you going to use the video for (portable device, viewing on computer, etc.)? Is file size an issue (does it need to be small, or does it not matter)?
What is the source file's characteristics? Use a program like MediaInfo or GSpot to check the file.
Are you changing anything about the video? Resizing it? Changing framerate? Etc.
I am just curious if any of the tmpgenc programs can utilize all of the services provided by a Quad Core processor or if it can only work in the dual core or lower environment.
The more recent products are optimized for multi-core processors; not sure about TMPGEnc 2.5 though.
However, I think the level of optimization depends on the encoding engine being used. For instance, in Video Mastering Works 5, if I use the x264 encoding engine, it will use all 8 cores on my i7 processor. However, I've heard from other people that VMW5 doesn't use all cores for other output formats/encoding engines. I'll try and test other encodes later when I have some time (QuickTime, WMV, etc.).
You can also toggle MMX, MMX-2, SSE, SSE-2, SSE-3, SSSE3, SSE4, 3D Now! and Enhanced 3D Now!.
When running TMPEng video mastering 5 is it normal to be using 100% cpu.
I'm running windows ultimate 7
2gb ram
core2quad
any reason for 100%cpu which overheats the computer, I get the overheating buzzing noise.I installed a program called speed fan which stops computer shutting down.
This is the only program I have this trouble with.
Please help.
Most people complain when it doesn't use 100% of the CPU (they want it to use 100%). Encoding is CPU intensive and the more of the CPU it uses, the faster the output will be.
Anyway, try lowering the CPU priority and run it in the background.
Speedfan is a program that monitors voltages, fan speeds and temperatures in computers with hardware monitor chips. Do you know the temp of CPU ? It's perhaps a cooling problem...If the CPu Temp temp for a COre 2 Quad is over 70°C you have a problem if they are at 89°C the system shut down...I had the problem with my "old" Core2Quad 9450 when the CPU fan had a paw broke...
you seem to have a cooling issue with your CPU, I have a AMD phenom X6 and when ALL 6 cores are running at 100%, my CPU temps only reach about 48c with the stock cooler. You should REALLY look into fixing this problem as multiple overheats will reduce the life of your CPU. Check your BIOS setting to make sure the the voltages are set correctly for your CPU. You can also try to "undervolt" the CPU, will really reduce the temp, if those things don't work, it's time to get a better CPU cooler
When will TVMW be able to read DTS audio directly from a source file. I have a few BD's with DTS only audio tracks and I really don't want to spent time extracting the audio track, converting it separately and then re-adding this to the main video file in TVMW.
Frankly, with the number of Blu-Ray's coming out with DTS audio, I just find this to be a basic feature (basic = I won't buy the soft if this is not there).
This is usually the result of the setting son the DVD player and/or the TV used to view the completed DVD. It can vary from one player/TV combination to another.
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.
