Audio files can be edited just like video files in the clip editor.
When in the Edit stage of the program, double-click your audio file to open the clip editor.
If you added the audio file to a video file, it should be edited along with the video.
Timeline mode might be what you want if you just want to edit the audio without editing the video.
Put the audio file on a separate layer above or below the video file layer. Double-click the audio file to edit it. Be aware that you will probably need to adjust the length of the audio file if it is longer or shorter than the video. If it is longer than the video, the video will repeat the last frame for the left over audio.
(Sorry for the second duplicate post, my first attempt seems to have left off half the post, and won't let me delete it).
I've run into this with several projects, going into the "Create a menu based on Template" option, finding the template with the perfect background for my project, but not liking any of the other features of the template. And they all seem to be locked as part of the template, cannot be changed or even moved to another part of the screen.
Considering that the heading says "create a menu BASED on a template" I would hope that I'd be able start out with the template as a base, and customize it as needed. That does not seem to be the case. And said perfect background is apparently NOT available to use in the library of backgrounds under custom menu creation.
Really irritating to find the perfect background for a project but hate the button/thumbnail/positioning options of the template and have no other way to just use the background.
Is there no way to export a template background to use separately, either within the program or by digging around into the program folders and finding the template files that way and save the background somehow from there?
The old program we used to use didn't always have the exact single backgrounds that they had available from the template either, but it was easy enough to find them in one of the program folders and copy them out to use by themselves. Would be nice if that was an option here as well.
Unfortunately, that's how it's been with this program for forever. I think people here have requested unlocked menu templates before, but it hasn't happened, so I wouldn't get your hopes up.
Making the backgrounds and other elements available as custom menu parts would be a good compromise though.

When a 'custom menu' (pic 1) is built, the background audio loops just when the mouse flies over the chapter box. This also starts the video or shows the picture, which is normal. This occurs even after the DVD is finished.
I tried several changes without any success.
It does not seems normal that the move on a chapter makes the audio restarts, as it is supposed to illustrate the menu 'page' and not the chapter itself.
I believe this is a limitation of the DVD standard. Any time the menu visually changes (not counting highlights, as those are overlaid on top of the menu), you are actually loading a separate render of the menu. Thus, the music will restart because you are essentially loading a new video (the menu).
Curious if we're going to get DTS support at any point. I'm seeing an increasing need for this, to the point I'm having to shop about for other tools to do preprocessing.
If I import videos with DNXHD or DNXHR format like with 10, 12 or 14Bit, it works but in the Import Dialog I can see only 8Bit.
Does TMPGEnc this downsampling and use 8bit after import or its only a bug from the Importing Screen?
Hello Mike
I try to import an DNxHD 10 bit in TVMW6 version 6.2.8.35
but it will not import the video
which varity of the DNxHD you're able to import?
which wrapper you used?
thanks

I have Apple ProRes 422 audio and video formats recorded. I tried to encode them to mpegII formats. When the encoding is done, I have the video, but no audio. Any suggestions or anyone have the same problems? Thanks
Yes audio is in the preview window and it plays through preview fine, just post encode it doesn't work. Audio settings are: MPEG 1 Audio Layer 2. 48khz, stereo, 224 bit rate.
I want to trim several MP4 files, all created the same way with the same software. With most of them, Smart Renderer 5 allows me to output the trimmed file back to MP4 format, but some of them it insists on outputting them as MPEG2 /.ts format!
Why is this happening? The ONLY operation I perform on these files is to trim their length, usually both at the beginning and at the end. I'm not changing anything else. So why can't I output all of these files as MP4 format?
I need a specific recommendation for a notebook suitable for hardware MP4 encoding supported by TMPGEnc Video Mastering Works 6
I am doing a lot of encoding of the same material in different bitrates VOD and sometimes it takes 3 hours per video with an average length of 2.5 hours.
very impressed by the features and stability of AW6 but would appreciate tips on how to auto display original imported video file names as chapter names (with or without thumbnails)
an example of this feature is found in the MULTIAVCHD package.
thanks
You can change the default chapter name in the Preferences and clicking on "Project General Settings." Click on the down arrow button next to the text box for Chapter Label and you can select the clip name as the default chapter name. You can also auto-add a number after the name as well.
Hello,
is it possible to change the default template settings? When i use mp4 output i want to use CBR instead VBR and other changes.
When i save a template, it only save the resolution and framerate. Or is it possible to create an own template without resolution and framerate, and it takes that values from the video? Other programs have options like "same as input file", but i dont find such an option here.
After you select a template, you can change pretty much any setting you want unless it's a format that has specific specifications like DVD or Blu-ray. You can also click on the "MPEG Advanced Settings" button to make even more changes to the settings.
When you save a template, it should save all of your changes. This is how it works for me at least.
There is no "same as input file" option that I am aware of.
