I think I used a wrong word... sorry about that.
what I'm trying to ask, is that how do I put the file infos in the property line.
such as, made by whom and when, stuff like that.
is there any way?
hope to hear from you soon.
There are 2 ways that I know of to insert "Meta Data" into the File, you can do it in Tmpgenc buy going to "System" and check the "Comments" Box, then write in the information into the file, i have never used that way but i"m sure it works.And the other way is after the file is encoded Right click the file ,then go to "Properties" then to either "Id-Tag" or to "Summary" and fill in the Information..To put files on Kazaa and have specific information in the file you have to use Kazaa..
After many months, Ive managed to get the quality perfect to how I wanted it, I have two small problems still though,
1) Once encoded, the play back seems to be a little juddery, (If you know what I mean), only the video though, the audio is fine.
2) My video souce is camcorder footage, now I use Pinnacle's studio 7 to capture the footage at full res, uncompessed, edit-render to AVI and drag it into TMPGenc, when encoding starts you get like a double vision, two frames in one on the fast movment of the footage, This I belive is interlace lines,
How on earth do I resolve this from being the case on my final product ????
By the way, I have tryed changing the output to non interlace.
This sounds like a field order problem if the "juddering" only occurs on vertical motion. It is easy to fix as long as you don't mind re-encoding. The field order must be set properly in the MPEG Setting/Advanced page.
It defaults to "bottom field first" which is correct for DV source but analog capture is often (always?) "top field first". If you are proficient with avisynth/virtualdub you can seperate the fields and see which order they are in, otherwise just try the other setting.
Field order is probably just a flag in the mpeg file and maybe there is an mpeg header editor that would let you flip the bit. Otherwise you have to reencode.
Don't confuse this with "swapped" field order. Swapping the field order will not fix the problem. That is for fixing fields that are placed incorrectly in a frame.
The way to find out the Correct field order in Tmpgenc is to load your file into the "Wizard" then it will analize the file for the correct field order then adjust it accordingly...But Some times even if you get the field order correct you can still get a "Combing" effect which doesn"t look very good..You can solve this by useing the "De-interlace" filter in the "Advanced settings"...
hi, i'm trying to make a movie widescreen but i'm having a lot of problem. I go into "clip frame" and try to put the movie at "center (keep aspect ratio)" but i see that both the left and right side are not filled up (square box looking). I also tried "full screen (keep aspect ratio)" and also see that both left and right sides are still not filled up. As a matter of fact only "center" and "no margin (keep aspect ratio) controls allow for both left and sides to be filled up and look more like widescreen. However, i would prefer to do the movie in "center (keep aspect ratio). When i tried to crop it the top and bottom get smaller but the left and right sides stay the same. Is there a way to make the left and right sides fill the screen (at 480 pixels) when using "center (keep aspect ratio). Thanks in advance
hi,it's 480x352...i tried "center (keep aspect ratio)" on my tv screen and see that both left and right sides are not filled all the way. However, "center" works nice but the "keep aspect ratio" is missing. Is it ok to use "center" and keep the "aspect ratio" out. Would my movie look weird?
You can try center and Custom size and fool around with the settings till it looks right...It is really hard to turn that resolution into a Widescreen movie Because the Picture is Taller than it is Wide were Widescreen is Wider than it is Tall..And you can try useing the "16:9" aspect ratio but you just don"t have the correct resolution to Really good Wide screen appearance..
I get an error right before the encoding of any file that i am converting when i am using 2 pass vbr, and have to stop encoding a few seconds before the encoding is complete so i can have a file. Otherwise it does not work. What is wrong help me
tmpgenc can't do subtitles as far as i know...u need to use virtual dub and select the subtitles plug in....now to get a good movie u don't want to be encoding again cuz u loose quality each time. So what u want to do is load your asf into virtual dub. Prob is virtual dub stopped supporting asf files when microsoft told them to so u have to use a earlier ver ie virtualdub 1.3c. I don't know how well the subtitler plugin works in that ver but i guess it should work fine. get virtualdub 1.3c here http://www.vcdhelp.com/tools.htm#edit and get the subtitler plugin here http://www.virtualdub.org/virtualdub_filters. U also need a program to make the subtitles....called sub station alpha http://www.eswat.demon.co.uk/substation.html
ok...now virtual dub makes avis not mpgs so u have to frameserve it to tmpgenc....ie virtualdub kinda lets tmpgenc do the encoding after the subtitles are added....file/start frame server and load the saved file into tmpgenc...
its a lot of work huh to put subtitles into mpg from asf....i have to go now maybe someone else can give u more details on frameserving...good luck!
Are u sure u have installed the frameserver correctly?
For a quick check, create another .vdr file then open another instance of Virtualdub and try and load the .vdr file into it.
If it loads ok then the client is installed ok and the problem therfore lies with TMPG, if it doesn't then the client isn't installed correctly.
Oh and if the file does load into Virtualdub then try disabling the Directshow file reader in the VFAPI plugins in TMPG then try and load the file again.
I have the following :-
