When I create a DVD using 1.6 I frequently (about 1 in 2) end up with a
DVD thats about 1GB short.
I use the same applications all the time so its not a source file issue I dont think. (hauppauge WinTV PVR350) I've tried varying the settings but it still happens.
I'm using win-98SE and Fat files cut to 2Gb in size by PVR and combining and editing in DVD Author. Everything looks good except the created directory/DVD ends up short.
Dunno if how big this dvd was, but if user is using older fat16 or 32 filesystem
remember one file (iso, bin, or nrg) can be no larger then 4gb. ntfs supports one file being larger than 4gb, but fat does not.
I own a media company, and we have a need to have NTSC MPEG2 Clips converted to PAL. I need someone with some good expertise because the final product will be for mobile phones. Will be able to pay per clip converstion. Please send me an e-mail if you think you can perform these tasks. Best regards, Jason
I am having problems with the batch tool in TMPGenc 3.0 Xpress just like everyone else has described. I have read the answer provided in the FAQ on this issue but regret that I am not sure I know exactly what it means and so I do not know how to correct my use of the tool. If I add a number of files but do not register them in the batch tool they all convert properly. It is only when they are registed in the batch tool that every other file ends up all black. This is a great product which I will continue to use except for the batch tool as it is unreliable. Perhaps the development team should reconsider the answer that has been provided in the FAQ to assist us in achieving functionality for the batch tool.
Yes, I have this problem too. I can save the project, and convert the file and it works fine. Take that same project and register it in the batch tool, and I will only get audio, no video. You can tell right away too, since the file size is way too small.
It does not seem to be easily reproducible for me tho, if we could get it reproducible, we could give it to support to fix.
With the latest revision to TMPGenc 3.0 Xpress the batch encoder tool is now working properly. I have used it successfuly for several projects. Thank you for listening Tech Support.
I'm making a widescreen DVD. However there are hardcoded subtitles are runs off the sides of the TV screen. What should I do to keep them in and preserve the widescreen?
I'm trying to use tmpgenc to convert some avis to mpg2, but everytime i do it, the program stops responding and wont do anything. This happens at the very start of encoding (the new file appears, but nothing works).
I tried encoding other avis from a different source and they work fine, but all of these new files I'm trying to do wont work...
Careful, your PC could lack the possibility to see a MPEG-2 file due to a failure in MPEG-2 decoding..this doesn't mean you encoded it badly (for instance: can your PC watch DVDs?).
Just for test, try making, with VCDGear, a SVCD into a CD-RW and watch it on a DVD player...
1. Create a standard blank menu. Change the blue default color to black.
2. Drag a button onto the menu.
3. Drag your video clip onto the button.
4. Set Menu time-out to 5 seconds (or whatever) 1 second works.
5. Go to ÅÅisplay” settings in the button menu. Adjust transparency to 99%.
It wonÃÕ go to 100% but is still invisible.
6. Select Ūnvisible” in button attributes
7. Create disk. You now have a disc that seamlessly loops forever, without a flicker.
I am currently starting a buisness i need straight answer as to which program is the best to use for encoding CCE or this. And Which takes the most time the files we will be encoding are 40gb Quicktime files. Please advise
I am new on this post. I was able to successfully convert AVI to MPG format for both SVCD and MPEG2 format. The converted file is a single mpg file. I can not play this play on Power DVD and not even on my home DVD player. but I can play it in Realplayer. Have I done something wrong? I used Sonic Record Now for buring CD.
Is there any guide for encoding and burning process?
Making a MPEG-1 (for VCD) or a MPEG-2 (for a SVCD) is only the 1st step. Now you should make mpeg-1 ---> VCD or mpeg-2 --> SVCD.
Just be careful to split (e.g. with MPEG Tools ____ Merge & Cut) the movie into pieces < 830 MB [usually 2, for SVCDs you can also choose 3] and to use VCDGear or Nero or VCDEasy to make mpeg --> VCD/SVCD image [usually (S)VCD1.bin/(S)VCD1.cue plus (S)VCD2.bin/(S)VCD2.cue].
Finding the right settings for having a MPEG-2 file = 830 MB is a little tricky, I use FitCD and TMPGenc 2-pass encoding for this.
I have been trying to use TMPGEnc 2.5 to edit & cut some DVD videos but having problems. On the Project Wizard window I select DVD & try to load the ".vob" files but an error message "...cannot open or not supported." keeps popping up. So how do I go about editing & cutting DVD files into shorter videos to burn on a dvd burner? If it's possible please explain step by step procedure.
Thanks.
My TMPGenc Plus suddenly crashed and now when I am trying to open AVI files I do NOT see Preview (because its black) and output is also black (contains no video) but only audio.
Never had this problem before
1.I reinstalled TMPGenc Plus
2.I installed FFDSHOW
3.My AVIs playing normally in Windows Media Player and VirtualDub
4.I raised priority to the top for DirectShow Multimedia File Reader
I've noticed that m2v files encoded by TMPG are always shorter in duration than the source avis. For example, I recently encoded an avi that was 1:18:53 in length. The resulting m2v (and mpg when I didn't go to elementary streams) was 1:18:48. The corresponding ac3 file was 1:18:53, as expected.
So the question is, what accounts for the 5 second discrepancy? This isn't a one-time event, and the time difference seems to vary linearly with the length of the clip.
