Yes they are as long as you use the standard .mfc files (templatest) and you can change some options but if you encode a file and then burn it with let's say NERO burning rom, and mark that you want VCD 2.0 complianc nero CHECKS the mpg file and will say "all oki" , in other words, nero will allways tell you if a mpg file you want to burn in VCD or SVCD is compliant with the standard :)
And btw, use "track-at-once" burning for maximum compability with standalone players and don't burn Faster than 4x if you can, and do a "check copy" to the Harddrive afterwords, my experience is that sometimes the burning gets "crappy" on "cheap" cd-r discs or something.

actualy nero will let you burn non compliant vcd"s as long as they are the right frame size and the audio is the right format,I do vcd"s at 2000kbs and nero says they are compliant,but the standard is 1150kbs,at even 5000kbs nero burns them without a fuss.....
I have downloaded the last TMPGEnc version (2.53) and the VFAPI Plug-in (I have already registered it). Nevertheless, I can't process movies from AVISynth since TMPGenc shows this message when trying to acces the .avs file
"file not valid or unsupported"
What can I do to solve this problem? what else do I need?
I have installed TMPGEnc and is trying to implement subtitles into my VCD by using virtualdubs frameserver but when i try to open the vdr-file in TMPGEnc it says "File "C:Internet est.vdr" can not open, or unsupported" Please help!!!
If TMPGenc gives you an error when opening the video.vdr.avi click on Option->Enviromental settings.
And this window appear, click on VFAPI plugin and right click on the DirectShow Multimedia File Reader and select Higher priority.
Now try to open video.vdr.avi.
Remember to after you have encoded the video.vdr.avi to Lower priority on the Directshow Multimedia File Readear to avoid problem open other videos.
After all this time of using TMPGenc, I have just discovered my log file doesn't work. Does any body know why my log file remains blank after I have encoded.
I have gone to 'Options' and ticked 'Always save encode log to file automatically'
But when I click 'Display encode log' the friggin thing is blank.
It works fine when I batch encode. Anybody got a clue?
The log file is actually created in the same folder as your movie.
No idea why it doesn't show in the log file window though. Just another TMPG bug I suppose.
after I convert file for mpeg I can burn file to vcd but I have NO video only audio track. How can I fix this problem. (I checked mpeg file before burning and it does not have video only audio as well)
can you see the video when you are encodeing?if you can"t that means that there is no video and you should not procede with encodeing...what kind of avi. are you trying to encode?is it divx5,cuz it is not supported in tmpgenc.....
you might need a different codecs i had the same problem if it is divx codecs 5 get it and re rip the divx with virtual dub with codecs 4.12 that fied it for me
how do you use 4.12 to rerip in virtual dub? will it automatically do that if you have it installed oon your machine or do you have to set it in virtual dub to encode in 4.12? Is there a setting you need to change in order for it to do that?
that is really strange cuz my demo of tmpgenc plus doesn"t have a water mark and I don"t think I have ever heard of a water mark in tmpgenc,what does it look like?are you sure that it isn"t a glitch in your file?....
If you are using the Elecard free Mpeg2 software, you will get a small logo/watermark in the upper right corner. Use a different video filter and it should resolve that.
When I go to encode a divx file, the first frame remains the same at the top as it is encoded while the bottom half is black white mess. I have used virtualdub to encode to divx by divx4, and they play fine until I try to encode them.
Is the video you are encoding in multiples of 16? (ie. 320 / 16 = 20)
Both the height and the width must be in multiples of 16 pixels, otherwise the video gets distorted.
Hope that helps.
I am uncertain how or why this is happening, but on several occasions The disk drive on which I run TMPGEnc has had its disk partition and file system corrupted and lost during the encoding process. There appears to be no physical disk problem as a surface scan reveals no errors and this only occurs when TMPGEnc is executing. This disk is dedicated to the encoder nothing else ever operates on it. This occurs when the disk nears capacity. There appears to be sufficient space on the drive to complete the operation. This is a Win98 HP 8575c system with an added 40 Meg Segate IDE drive with a FAT32 file system. The version of TMPGenc is v2.02. I am perfectly willing to upgrade to v2.53 if this will solve it but I can find no reference to any such problems on the BBS.
It was Win98SE. That's what I figured. I couldn't understand how an application could crash a file system if its using standard Windows fileio. You wouldn't have access to the partition directly to trash it. The disk was being used constantly for other things prior to the point when I began encoding SVCDs. After losing a few hundred mp3s and MPEGSs and Apps I only use the disk for ripping and encoding. I continues to happen if I allow it to get near capacity. At 40Gigs that means more than one or two movies. I guess I'll just swap out the disk with another and see it it persists.
I have problems opening Divx avi movies in Tmpeg. I always get the error "unable to open or unsupported". I tried the trick with increasing the priority and all that stuff but nothihng seems to help. really desperate here.
