I have an MPEG-2 file (352x480, 4Mb/s) that I want to shrink a bit in size...
So I thought I would recode it as 352x240, 23.997 fps, or 352x480, 23.997 fps -
and see what the results would be like. But no matter how I try, I seem to
be losing the last couple of seconds worth of the video stream - it freezes up
the video, and holds it for that last couple of secs... Is it something I am doing wrong?
This is what I do:
1. Demux original MPEG-2
2. Take video (352x480 4MB/s) and recode as (352x240, 23.997, CQ 95)
3. Multiplex resulting video and audio stream.
4. Play resulting MPEG-2.
I was just wondering if it was possible to input a mpeg2 stream, and run just the filters (ie noise reduction) without actually reencoding the whole video.. For example i have a capture with a bit of noise and want to clean it up, but i dont want to waste time by "reencoding it as well"
1) When do you receive the activation code?
2) Do you get the user's manual in e-mail and how do you get it and print it out ?
3) Is the activation code good for future versions of the program ?
4) How do you clean-up your WinXP register of old program expiration entries (without having to edit them out)? I have Norton Utilities 2002, but don't know if it will do it with Win Doctor or System Doctor.
I ordered and payed for the PLUS version.
It seems identical to the trial but no nagging.
my reg. # worked on newer versions.
I never got any sort of manual.
Would I do it again? Yes.
It's an outstanding piece of work and deserves our money.

I have a movie which says I need divx 5.0 to play...and I have installed divx 5 pro and I get no sound or audio - nothing!!
I have the same problem with a movie that says I need the smr patch...got it...installed it and again no sound or audio.
Does anyone know what is wrong????????
I have also installed nimo 5.0 - doesn't help
In at least the last two builds, 29.97fps material becomes 2997fps in the source range under the Advanced tab. Because of that, the frame number is all wrong and the number of frames tops out at about an hour.
Hmmmm... I think I might have found the problem. I was using VideoServer to frameserve from Premiere, and that seems to be the culprit. Sorry... false alarm.
I have my movie broken into multiple AVI files. They are 650 MB each because I have them saved on CDs. I want to create a DVD MPEG2 file from these four files, but it looks like I can only select 1 AVI source file. What should I do?
There are three ways to this.
One is Minions way.
The second is to use virtualdub. Open the first part of the movie in Virtualdub then click File>Append AVI segment and add your second file and repeat this step until you have added all the files you wish to join together.
Each file will joined at the end of the previous file. To check what the files will look like together just move the slider to the right to scan through your movie.
If everything is as you want it just frameserve the movie to TMPG.
The third is to encode all your movies separately then just add each one after the other to NERO then highlight all the files and right click and choose properties. Here change the pause setting to 0 and burn with 'disk at once'.
Your files will then play smoothly to the next in the order you put them without any pauses in between.
I have been creating movie previews by using the "Merge & Cut" feauture under "MPEG Tools". However, it's rather time consuming to manually enter each edit point from an entire movie file, just to create a 30 or 60 second clip. Is there an easier/faster way to do this? It would be nice if there was a feature in TMPGEnc that all you had to do is load the movie file(s) and, with after entering a few parameters, it would generate a preview clip for you. Any ideas? Any programs currently available that does that?
You can choose the parts of a avi file that you want to encode by useing the "source range" feature in the "advanced settings"..say you want to save a 5 minute clip of a movie and the clip is in the middle of the file ,you load your avi file into "tmpgenc" go to the "source range" and choose were you want your clip to begin and were you want it to end ,then when you encode it will just encode the part you chose.If there are a bunch of clips you want to save out of an avi. file, instead of encodeing after chooseing your clip you save the project and then choose the next clip and save the project till you have set up and saved project files for all your clips in the avi file, then you go to "batch encode" and load in all your project files then click "run" and "tmpgenc" will just encode the clips that you want from the avi file...I hope this is what you were looking for ? this is just one of the excelent features of "tmpgenc" ......
I'm converting some of my DVDs to VCD for my son (He doesn't have a DVD player).
I have a Region 2 DVD that has 3 languages. TMPEnc seems to select the Italian track. Is there a way to tell TMPEnc to use the english audio track?
regards
What are you doing ?are you loading the vob files directly in to "tmpgenc"..If that is what you are doing, don"t!, get "dvd2avi" and it will extract the right audio track for you and downmix and convert it to wav,and it will give you a d2v file with all the info for all your vob files, and you load that in to "tmpgenc"...It is a great tool
Thanks for the info. I'm pretty new to this stuff. When I first started I used the AVI format but found the files were enormous. Thats why I wanted to go straight from VOB to MPEG.
Does the tool you reccomend extract the video also or should I still dump the VOB into TMPEnc with the wave?
The new version of TMPGenc plus includes a full guide as to how to use the software...It is very well written and gives tyou step by step instructions as to how to use all the functions....That is one of the benefits I think of the plus version....
I just went to the "pegasus " download page for the plus version and there doesn"t seem to be a new "plus" version the one there is still the "2.53 plus" version,I think that they just put a manual in the 2.53plus zip file..don"t matter to me cuz the last 2 versions have been great with no problems you can"t fix........
I understand that Nero can "normalize" all the tracks on an audio CD
so that one does not have to constantly adjust the volume.
What setting for normalize is best?
sorry for being off topic.

I have an interlaced source file and would like to deinterlace it. However, I don't want to blend (Double) the 2 fields. Using TMPGEnc, is there a way to determine exactly which field to deinterlace (odd or even)?
In the "settings" in "advanced" double click the "de-interlace"and a screen with your movie and a slider so you can scan your movie,and there are many settings for deinterlace,what I do is scan through my movie file and go to some realy bad scenes were the lines are really noticeable and just go through the settings till I find the best one that seems to get rid of the lines in each scene,It takes time but through trial and error you will find the best setting for you..........
