Question - TE25 - Can't convert mp2s No.28094
Brian  2002-09-16 06:03:19 ( ID:yddhbyvamt6 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I can play mp2 videos on my computer, but whenever I open up an mp2 file to encode it, it says that the file type is not supported. I've got my TV program closed, as well as any media players, but still no luck, what should I do to rectify this problem?


Minion  2002-09-16 21:11:32 ( ID:w8yn5mktf8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Do you mean Mpeg2?? mp2 is a audio format...You have to have either the "Ligos mpeg2 decoder" or the "Cyberlink mpeg2 decoder" installed on your system before you can load mpeg2 files into tmpgenc...and sometimes it helps if you just load in the Mpeg video(mpv), cuz Tmpgenc doesn"t like compressed Audio...but you need the mpeg2 decoder installed...

Divx  2002-09-16 03:36:24 ( ID:r.o1gyof2bc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Hi I'm using a format created from one of the leaders on this form.

CQ 4000/1800 @65% (480*480) xsvcd

How can I determin what the file size will be. It seems the bit rate can change the file size more than the length.

Is there a formula or program that can help me out. I want to use the max files size to make the best video.

Thanks Steven


ASHY  2002-09-16 18:00:09 ( ID:n3gjkhi6dvc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

The easiest way to do it which will give you an idea is to just encode a regular scene for a minute in the movie and then multiply the result by the amount of minutes in the film or to be more precise encode 5 mins of a regular part of the movie and multiply that by the time length of the movie.
For example a movie which encodes at 13mb/min and is 100 mins in length will roughly be 1300mb in total.

This is not an exact method as there is no method which can be exact, but it will give you something to shoot for and tell you roughly how large the total file size will be.

Question - TE25 - logo filter for tmpgenc No.28090
steve  2002-09-15 22:18:40 ( ID:evkqquswknk )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I was wondering if there is a logo filter out there I can install into tmpgenc.

I know there is a logo filter with virtualdub and I used it already but if there is one for tmpgenc I can skip the step of changing the video into avi with virtuald and than back to mpg with tmpgenc.

Please let me know.

-thanks

Question - TE25 - Off Topic......Audio W/ poweramp No.28088
MannaZen1  Home )  2002-09-15 21:46:49 ( ID:590ch7buz56 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I started converting audio with virtual dub to .wav then with poweramp to mp2, but the audio skips: fades in and out.

The source audio is fine, but skips a bit.

Does running other programs have anything to do with this skipping effect?



ABS  2002-09-16 02:28:22 ( ID:tmdsptwfkem )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

rickki804  2002-09-15 19:56:07 ( ID:z8/b3bwft7r )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

When I was encoding a while back, I ran into a piece of bad film in Bad Boys. I was able to splice it, remove the bad part and put it back together again. I thought I did this in VDub, but when I looked for it, there were not tutorials on the subject. The file was freezing in Tmpgenc. Don't remember what I did. Can you point me in the right direction. I have looked in the forums here and vcdhelp.


Minion  2002-09-15 21:49:20 ( ID:w8yn5mktf8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

In the source range in Tmpgenc you can use the "Cut editing" feature to cut certain parts out of the avi file...well actually it just skips encodeing the selected part...


rickki804  2002-09-16 01:23:44 ( ID:z8/b3bwft7r )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Is it a decent fix?


Minion  2002-09-16 01:58:03 ( ID:w8yn5mktf8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I actually have never used it before but that is basicly what the feature is for, or cutting out commercials......

I burned two cd's
converted file to cd-ntsc and tried dvd-ntsc , they will not play on my new dvd player.
any suggestion would be appreciated

I don"t really understand your Question...You can"t put a DVD formated mpeg on a CD-R..How would you burn such a File???You can only burn vcd/xvcd/svcd/xsvcd/cvd formated Mpeg files on a Cd-R, dvd"s are for DVD"S... and you have to burn these mpeg file with a Program that is specificly for burning vcd/svcd"s...


Olli  2002-09-17 15:37:54 ( ID:k24fqlswccn )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Also check www.vcdhelp.com and look for your DVD player to see what it supports (VCD, XVCD etc). The type of media brand you use is also important for some players.

why can't i load asf into tmpgenc?.....says filetype unsupported although it plays fine in mediaplayer 6.4 so i guess i have the codecs


Minion  2002-09-15 21:42:38 ( ID:w8yn5mktf8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

You Probably need to raise the "Direct Show File reader".. go to "options" to "enviromental settings" to "vfapi Plugins" and raise the "direct show" to "2"...


lupy  2002-09-16 12:56:01 ( ID:o10nietw26a )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

that didn't help. But i used asf tools to repair the asf and now tmpgenc reads it :-)

thanks

I don"t understand what your problem is...all you do is load your divx file into Tmpgenc then click the "load" button in the bottom Right, then choose the "Ntsc-vcd Template" or the "Pal-VCD template" then click "start" and that is it...there aren"t any settings that say "vcd to svcd"...

IM trying to convert an avi file to mpeg but at a lesser quality like all the other simpson episodes i have are roughly 200 mb but when i try to convert my episodes which are avi they come out to be 500 mb
i should be able to select the quality but the settings area is all grey meaning i cannot select anything


Minion  2002-09-16 21:17:22 ( ID:w8yn5mktf8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Makeing Non-Standard VCD"s at a lower Bitrate will Give you Terrorable Quality, like Practicly un-watchable, regular VCD"s are practicly un-watchable cuz The Quality is so low ,but if you want to commit Bitrate murder on the Simpsons, you have to load the "Unlock.mcf" template so you can unlock the settings then you can lower the bitrate , but another thing you have to do is change the "System" setting to "Video-CD Non-Standard".....

unlock.mcf
videocd 1246 kbps(ntsc).mcf
videocd 1246 kbps(ntscfilm.mcf
videocd 1246 kbps(pal).mcf
and thanks for being so kind to answer my questions


Minion  2002-09-17 01:28:21 ( ID:w8yn5mktf8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

The template I am Talking about is in the "Extra" Folder inside the "Templates" folder, and it is Called "Unlock.mcf" you load it by clicking the "Load" tab on the bottom right corner in Tmpgenc, then look for the "Extra" folder in the "templates" folder, then the Settings will be unlocked, or you can go into the Settings and put your pointer over were it says "Bitrate" then "Right Click" it then choose "Unlock", and after this you have to go to "settings" to "system" then choose"Video-CD-Non-Standard" or you file will not get smaller but the quality will get lower....

Schumacher, you do know that vcds are burned according to time, not the file size right? That is your concern right?

harrys potter - i have season one of the simpsons in mpg format they are all 22 minutes or so and are about 200 megs where as the avi files of simpsons season 2 when i use tmpeg to make them vcd turn out to be 500 megs or so

That can't be right if you are creating standard VCD. VCD has a constant of 10mb/min so 22 mins would be 220mb not 500mb.
Your are either using a higher CBR bitrate or are using VBR. Either way it can't be a standard VCD.

Schumacher  2002-09-22 20:47:07 ( ID:kyt92zr/fdf )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

i select the avi file and i select encode what should i do to make it a standard vcd
what settings should be set?


ASHY  2002-09-22 21:33:52 ( ID:4adzcnohuc. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

You need to select a template. The VCD template can be found by clicking the load button. This should bring up a folder containing templates.
Select either 'VideoCD (PAL).mcf' or 'VideoCD (NTSC).mcf' depending on your loacation. If you can't find the template folder then just navigate to your TMPG folder and find the folder named 'Templates'.
These are the standard VCD compliant templates. You may adjust the settings by loading the unlock.mcf template in the Extras folder, but bear in mind this will make the VCD non compliant.

spitfire_53  2002-09-15 18:46:20 ( ID:anqnsvyihbj )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I cannot convert AVI to mpg, even after changing to Direct show to two.
When I do the program shuts down. Can anyone tell me what to do?


Minion  2002-09-15 21:37:18 ( ID:w8yn5mktf8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Were did you get the avi file from...If it is downloaded off the net it is probably corrupt...you can try to make a copy of it with " virtual dub" and try to encode that....


spitfire_53  2002-09-16 22:39:24 ( ID:anqnsvyihbj )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I figured it out thanks anyways.
What I did was, wizard was done and then it started to encode, but I stopped it and then changed Direct show to 2, then clicked the start button, instead of changing Direct show before encoding.

Yet again thanks anyways,
spitfire_53

Trying to convert avi to mpeg 70% thru the program freezes.
It consistently stops at 70%.
I can view all frames so it is not avi file being corrupt.
Any clues?
Thanks


Minion  2002-09-15 21:35:09 ( ID:w8yn5mktf8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Because you can View all the frames doesn"t mean it isn"t corrupt, and the header could be corrupt..what ever the reason the soultion is probably the same,you can either try to use "Virtual Dub" to make a Copy of the file and try to encode that ,or you can encode till it crashes then start encodeing a few frames after it crashes then join the 2 parts with the "Merge & Cut"...



Question - TE25 - Audio Sync Problem No.28058
Jeff  2002-09-15 18:11:20 ( ID:dg1imzrxxij )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I have backed up several DVD's now using TMPGEnc for the final conversion to MPEG-1 prior to burning the video CD. In all of them, when playing back on my home DVD player, the video seems to speed up and slow down at times out of sync with the audio which continues playing at a constant rate. This does NOT happen when playing the VCD on my PC. Anyone have any suggestions? Could the problem be that I am stepping down from 29.97 fps to 23.976 fps when encoding the video? The audio stream has been ripped as a separate WAV file, so would be unaffected by the stepdown. Any ideas are appreciated. Thanks.
