Can we multiplex audio and video file with a batch command ??? (ie : i want to run batch processing in dos to multipex a mpeg still picture and a audio file).
Have you tried another operating system ?
I have the same problem, the tmpgenc is halting and I have to kill the application with task manager. The problem occurs not under WIN2000 with the exact same application (because tmpgenc.exe is stored on my second hard disk and I´m changing the operating systems with a changeable hd-bracket.
Probably it will be fixed in next version.
Or somebody can tell why and what to do.
Hmm I don't know if there is a function in Tmpgenc that can CUT away the black bars, the thing is that the movie is probably wide screen from the beginning and thats why they have the black bars. Is there any point in fixing the picture, I wan't to know as well if it is possible.
Hi ppl,
I came across video sequences saved on a frame by frame basis with an extension .yuv. Eg. frame0.yuv, frame1.yuv.....frame200.yuv. I am aware that tmpgenc doesn't seem to like these for input. Any idea how I can overcome this problem (maybe .yuv to .bmp conversion...if anyone knows of a program....or some plugin)?
Secondly, does anyone know of a program to split a big mpeg file into exact lenghts eg. 1 file (of say 10000 frames) split as 10 files of 1000 frames each.
Cheers and thanks for everything.

in the settings options, goto advanced. use the source filter. hit the start frame button, then move the frame u wish too stop encoding at, then hit the finish frame button, click ok and encode. I hope this helps.
I copied the VOB files to my harddisk, then used DVD2AVI before using TNPGenc to create the MPEG1 file.Then I had to split the file in two parts to fit on ordinary CD-Rs.After this I used Easy Creator to create the actual VCDs.The resultng CD's works on my PC, but the sound is corrupt when I put them I my Philips DVD player.The sound is not bad, it's just corrupt. Does anybody have any ideas what I did wrong?
An interresting thing is that if I take the MPEG1 files, and insert them into Ulead Mediastudio to create a new set of MPEG1 files, the result works OK in my DVD player, The picture quality is not perfect, but it works.
Try to extract the audio as wav using virtualdub, then load this in and the video in TMPGENC. encode a little and see if it works. Make sure the audio sample rate is 44100hz.
There is some very short noise about twice a second, and if you how the sound should be, you can understand the fragments.But again, this is on my DVD player. If i run the VCD on my PC it is OK.It also strange that the VCD from Mediastudio is OK.
After converting .avi to mpeg1 and writing DVD, attempts to play back fail and 'illegal stream format' error message is received by program or, 'unsupported format' received from PowerDVD. Being a neophyte in this area, I am at a loss to understand my problem. Any help for a Beginner?
...initially I tried mpeg2 and I had the same message encountered with mpeg1, so I thought I would try the lesser resolution.
I have simply used the Wizard default settings for each format i.e. NTSC low-res, 352x240,29.97,48000 and source is non-interlaced 4:3 525-line NTSC 704x480.
I have successfully converted to VCD format and written same which HAS been successfully read using the default settings.

For anyone following this thread: I discovered my own problem. I had recently installed the DVD writer but my motherboard needed a bios update to properly recognize it; it has been reading it as a CD unit, hence my ability to successfully write CD's but not DVD's. No fault attributable to TMPGEnc settings or performance.
Haven't even started and problems already! When I try to open an .avi file to convert I get an "illegal stram format" message! I have all the DivX codecs and have tried this with loads of films that I can all view fine with media player, bs player, win dvd or whatever. What now?
I have the same problem using Pinnacle's DC10 Plus capture card and their Studio AV 7 software with all updates. The Pinnacle must have a propietary AVI so I have to use Studio to encode into DV-AVI and then TMPGEnc will read the file and creat an mpeg for me. It seems rediculous that this has to be done since Studio has mpeg conversion but the quality is so poor compared to TMPGEnc's that I seem to have no other choice if I want decent looking VCDs.

Use Nero to burn your (S)VCD directly from your Studio-7 AVI files. Skip the TMPGEnc step.
When using the merge & Cut function in tmpgenc 2.52 to cut a large mpeg2-stream tmpgenc freezes after a few seconds. Programm has to be killed with task manager. Problem occurs only under win xp pro, in win 2000 there is no problem.
Does anybody know anything about ?
thks, chris
yes be sure that your file doesnt contain any errors that I found caused me a lot of hedache the file would convert only to a point where the corrupt was then error out leaving a useless piece of junk. I wish the author of TMPGenc would add the ability for TMPGenc to fix these error spots. Hmm maybe in a future revision. ~NewtronX
File/stream is not defective. I cut the same stream under WIN2000 and it worked so it seems to be a WIN XP problem. I´m starting the same TMPGEnc.exe on my second hard disk while changing the hard disk physically (two OS) with a changing bracket. So video stream is on my second hard disk (e:) stored and the tmpgenc is stored on my second hard disk as well.
Any good ideas ?
I recently purchased TMPGEnc Plus. All my encoded movies have the little image (watermark?) in the upper right corner. I am refering to what looks like a logo or watermark which is a a graphic composes of 9 very small squares in a 3 x 3 grid. Does anyone else have these on their vidoes? Is this permanent? Should it be removed after installing the licensed version of TMPGEnc Plus 2.53?
Strange, uninstall it, download the version from http://www.pegasys-inc.com/
or go throught there link to download the proggy, then use your licens to register it, there should be no watermark if you have a registerd version, at least to my knowleg.
I am running "TMPG ENC" on an old Pentium Pro 180mhz. It seems to work ok, however it takes up to 6-7 Hours to convert AVI to VCD. Apart from upgrading to a faster PC, is there anything that I can do with this thing to speed up the process???
I have something I want to know, I have read lot's of guides on howto do this to my question is this.
I download a DivX movie (640*360 with AC3 sound) extract the audio to an uncompressed WAV file. Now I have a DivX and Wav file, insert them into Tmpgenc, load up a SVCD template and change some small stuff.
Now if I hit encode, it takes lika 36h or something to complete and when it's done I have a file that is around 2Gb. Now how do I split this file, Is it possible to do in tmpgenc since I don't like bbmpg and how long does it take to split a file that big in tmpgenc ?
click on settings. set the motion search estimate to fast. in the advanced tab, use the source filter. move to the first frame, hit start frame, move to the end of the file and hit last frame.
