Hi ,this question isn"t exactly about tmpgenc but some poeple here might be able to help,well here"s my problem:I want to rip dvd"s to make vcd"s,svcd"d,xvcd"s ect.and I think I have all that I need(dvd-rom,cd-rw,800mhz intel,40gb hd,384mb ram).but when I try to rip a dvd I get a blue screen error "can"t write to drive c" which is my hard drive,I can only get about 75mb of a vob. file .I thought I had a hard drive problem,so I returned my computer and got a new one of the same kind.(under warenty),now on my new computer I get the same errors,and becides that both computers are now busted,I tried bringing back the dvd-rom and got a new one and that didn"t help,tried smart ripper,clad dvd,and dvd decrypter with the same errors and many different dvd"s, so if any one knows any thing about the"CAN"T WRITE TO DRIVE C" error while ripping please help me the computer company is sending me my "3 rd "computer...PLEASE HELP...........THANX...
thats the hard drive,I did replace it I replaced the whole computer,and still get the error,now they are sendidg me my 3 computer this week...any one else have a sudgestions..thanx any way techno.......
Maybe ur power pak could be faulty cause it may produce alot of current therefore frying some components which can cause this error.
U tried updating the motherboard driver?
Disable the UDMA mode from the BIOS and try again
Try using other software if possible
If still no luck, then try the same process on a different machine, as a test, to see if u r doing things correctly. If so, your system is faulty and faults may be from the batch.
Techno I'm sure somebody else mentioned on this board about not undermining other peoples advice that they give.
I did not udermine YOUR advice. I merely added to it.
The advice I am giving is in addition to yours and is meant to help by turning off certain windows features to increase the compatiblity with the program.
It may work it may not, but it's worth a try.
YOU are not the only person on this board with some technical knowledge,so just cool it, ok.
thanx TECHNO,I fixed it,I made my dvd-rom the master and the burner the slave,I turned of the "dma" on the dvd-rom and got rid most of my start up programs,and now my computer is fine,you guy"s rule !!!!!...thanx sherlock
Techno stop blubbering and grow up boy.
Your right, these boards are supposed to be helpful and not for trouble, but you seem to cause plenty. I don't under estimate anybody, but don't over estimate yourself either.
From what I've read on this board you seem to put yourself above everbody else and sham everbody elses advice if it conflicts with yours. This is no way to behave Techno. I know you probably sit at your PC all day with nothing else to do but post comments on this board, but that doesn't make you king on here.
Give a little respect to others on this board and you will find you will have it returned. Remember intelligence doesn't gain respect, but sincerity will.
I've got Quicktime DV files I can't get to encode- they are usually 9 to 15gb. When I use the Quicktime VFAPI plugin I can load these files but then the image quality is very bad-almost as if TMPG is encoding the proxy version of the file and not seeing the DV codec.
If I don't use the Quicktime loader- the files will either not open in TMPG or they will open and encode but the encoding stops at the 2gb point of the source file. I realize this is a file system limitation.
Is there any way to qet around this without breaking the Quicktime into 2gb chunks or recompressing into AVI? Perhaps a program that breaks it up and sends to TMPG automatically?
"floating decimal calculation error" with a avi I'm processing for a VCD, I already played with all the settings from "quantize matrix" and the error keeps popping up at 37% of my file is there anything else I should try? my avoi is perfect, I've seen it many times.
Try disabling the SSE and SSE2 enhancements under the CPU tab in enviromental setings within TMPG then untick 'Use floating point DCT' in Quantize matrix.
I had this exact problem before, here's how I fixed it:
Under Environmental Settings for your VFAPI plug in, make sure none of the priorities are in the negatives, all of them should be around 0.
There are specific variations for each media codec and machines, based on problems encountered, you may have to experiment a little. But first set all of the priorities to 0 or better.
OK, tried playing with the quantize matrix settings, no good.
I don't even have the SSE/SSE2 options available and 'Use floating point DCT' wasn't ticked :(
I'm now playing with the options Mathew recommends, so far I tried with all priporities set to '0' and it encoded the video... kinda, now instead of stopping at the same spot I just lose the image, audio is ok, but that's kinda obvious since I'm taking the audio from a wav file.
I'll let you know if this worked, thanx for the help you guys.
I would appreciate anyone's help with this matter. I have an intel 1 gig processor w/a half a gig memory. tmpgenc works just fine on. I recently bought an intel 1.8 gig w/a full gig of memory and now I get an error saying that an avi that the 1 gig can encode gives me a message that "can not open or unsupported" on the 1.8 gig system. It's a new system and I'm sure I just need to load some program or codec but can't figure out what it needs to read avi's again.
are trying to encode avi movie file into vcd (ntsc) but im getting purple flashes(pixelization) they only last couple seconds then disappear to repeat every 5-10 secs any help would be great

i went to that link you gave me earlier and checked my dvd, it said that my dvd supports vcd and cd-R, so what's the problem. am i doing something wrong with converting from mpeg to vcd? by the way what is the converted file's extention, is it still mpeg or something else? because when i'm done converting, the new file is still mpeg but smaller size, is that how it's supposed to be?
Are you actually burning the mpeg file as a Video cd or are just burning 'as is' to a cdr.
You need to use software such as NERO to burn the MPEG file as a valid Video cd using the Video cd option or you player won't recognize the file.
what do i do? it seems like it's converting fine but i try to play the new burned cd, nothing comes up on the screen. is the problem with my dvd player or with your software? i have a denon dvd-1000 .please help out here.

I got a problem with encoding VBR with TMPEG.
flask MPEG and avisnth are used as frameserver, and everytime at 99% progress TMPEG prompts an error Message"Stream Reading Error".
Looking for a good mpeg-editprogram where you can cut the mpeg-file so it fits a regular CD-R. I've tried Ifilm edit 4.1 but the trialversion didn't allowed movies greater than 5 minutes. Anyone who knows a share/freeware program that with good quality.
You just select how much you would like to encode (video) and select the source range filter in the settings tab. Then hit start frame and then choose your last frame that you want to stop at, and hit stop frame.
Or use the MPEG tools within TMPG.
Just goto file and click MPEG tools then click the Merge&Cut tab. Select your movie by clicking the ADD button, choose the TYPE of stream you want i.e Video cd then highlight your movie and click the EDIT tab. Then choose where you want to cut the movie by selecting the start and end points and then click ok and then run. Don't worry if you get some silly error like 'Read error occured against address 73f01d04' it's just a bug and won't affect your movie.
