Question - TE25 - DVD ripping speed No.20293
VeloBorg  2002-04-30 18:29:00 ( ID:oiqutcgiync )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Is there a way to increase the "DVD-speed" in Smart Ripper 2.41?
on one machine (P3-700mhz) I get 3.5 + on the speed
on my home (Athlon 1.4ghz) I get 2.0 or below...
yes, DMA is turned on...

How fast you can rip depends on you DVD drive and how fast your hardrive is.
First make sure you aspi layer is up to date.
Don't go with ASPI 4.7 as I find it has problems with some software stick with ASPI 4.6 as smart ripper is optimized for this.
You say DMA is turned on. Is it enabled for both hard drive and the DVD drive?
Another important one is make sure your DVD drive is set as a primary drive not a slave.
And last but not least disable the S.M.A.R.T. feature in your bios for your hard drive.

With these settings my Pioneer 10x DVD drive went from a maximum rip speed of 6 to a maximum of 9.2x!

Ashy, how would I check the aspi version?
both my CD drives run off the same IDE cable, so one is a slave, one is a master... but how would you know that without cracking open the case?
I've updated to Nero's aspi drivers...and that helped a little.
I'm using a 1.4gig athlon and a 122gig maxtor drive with a 16x dVD.
I still only get about 4 on the dvd drive speed.
hhmmmmmm.....


ASHY  2002-05-02 12:21:00 ( ID:4adzcnohuc. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Download these adaptec drivers and follow the instructions inside. If you can.
Remove the Nero aspi drivers first.

http://www.cyrus.troy.btinternet.co.uk/downloads/aspichk.exe


You can check which drive is on which IDE channel when your PC boots up. Just look at the configuration settings screen when you boot and here will be a list of devices your cdrom devices will be listed and should say either primary or slave. To stop the screen so you can look just press the 'Pause' button then press enter to resume.
And just to repeat, make sure the SMART feature is off. This will speed things up.
Also don't have any packet writing software installed.
Disable your antivirus software.
If you have Nero installed, uninstall Easy cd creator if you have it installed as these two programs conflict.

What operating sytem are you using and what is the model of your DVD drive. Is it a Toshiba by any chance?

Bug report - TE25 - screeching in audio No.20291
VeloBorg  2002-04-30 16:36:02 ( ID:oiqutcgiync )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Problem: screeching/chirping/pinging noise in final mpg file
I use
smart ripper 2.41
DVD2AVI 1.75
TmpgEnc 2.53
VCDEasy 1.09

If I split the file WHILE encoding, the audio is fine.
If I use the "mpg tools" in TmpgEnc to split or merge,
the screeching appears in the audio track.
Has anyone else had this problem?
Don't know if it's fixed yet with 2.54. Will test.

dwest576  Home )  2002-04-30 15:25:40 ( ID:re6docp9sz2 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

The first time I used the program, everything ran great. Seems to be a good program. Then I ripped another DVD to M2v and AC3, converted AC3 to Wav and went into TMPGenc to Encode into MPG. The Video Seems to load fine in the wizard, but when you go to The bitrate conversion screen with the bar at the bottom that shows how big you file is going to be there is now bat, and it says that size is .03 MB. I do the same thing w/ only the audi and it shows fine. I assume there is something wrong with the m2v file, but I can play it fine in windows media player, and ReMPEG2 reencodes the same file fine. Help Please, much rather use this program...

Thanks,
Dave West


ASHY  2002-04-30 23:18:20 ( ID:n3gjkhi6dvc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

What do you mean you ripped the DVD to M2v and ac3
Why did you do that?
Just use the DVD2AVI method which is much simpler and faster and won't give you the problem you are having which I guess is due to the fact you don't have an MPEG2 codec installed to open the file.

Bug report - TE25 - Merging mpeg2 - files : Not enough memory No.20283
Dieter  2002-04-30 12:48:36 ( ID:ejwk/3foipr )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Running TMPEGenc 2.53 on XP (Intel 2Ghz, 512MByte memory)
TMPEGenc crashes in some cases when merging large MPEG2 files
because of lack of memory. However, this is strange because
in some cases it successfully merges even larger files (up to 4.5 GByte).
The behaviour is always the same: the error occurs after finishing
the video and audio part when writing the file on disk. After about
700Mbyte the required virtual memory increases from about 130MByte
to more than 2Gbyte until XP finally gives up.

Any ideas?


ASHY  2002-04-30 13:59:05 ( ID:4adzcnohuc. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Try changing the virtual memory to maximum 4096gb.

Could someone please explain the error 'Index of scan line is out of range 240'I am having problems understanding what I am doing wrong.I am new to this and would appreciate some help please. Thankyou Jo


ASHY  2002-04-30 12:41:21 ( ID:n3gjkhi6dvc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I think this is something to do with an error in the AVI. Something to do with the fact that there is only active video information starting from the 21st scanline and for some reason the information in your AVI is starting before that which is out of range.

If it plays ok in Media player then I would suggest either running it through virtual dub and re-encoding the file or use Virtual dub to frameserve the file to TMPG.
Click here for instructions how to frameserve.

Can someone help me with this problem, I have looked at the site vcdhelp.com and tried doing research on the net, and still havent been able to extract my audio right. Plus I have looked at this site for help.I have downloaded Easy Audio CD-DA and have extracted my audio, but the audio comes out distorted! I have tried to make it a wav file and mp3 and all come's out the same, bad!
It will load in TMPGEnc after extracting it, but comes out the same. I dont know what sound file it is on my avi. But will not load as it is. And cant seem to convert it to any good sound file.


ASHY  2002-04-30 12:10:29 ( ID:n3gjkhi6dvc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

The audio is probably ac3.

If it is your gonna need to extract it with goldwave http://www.goldwave.com/gwave426.exe

You will also need to install these Ac3 filters
http://yunks.com/board/data/databank/files/20020215011225/AC3filters.exe

After you have installed goldwave and the filters open up your AVI in goldwave.
Wait for it to de-flash the file then click File>save as and save your audio as a wav then load that into TMPG as your audio with your movie.

ASHY  2002-04-30 12:15:07 ( ID:n3gjkhi6dvc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

If that doesn't work install the Radium mp3 codecs http://members.telocity.com/~linuxgod/ra-codec12.zip and try again with Goldwave.

Question - TE25 - Aspect settings doing nothing? No.20268
Politburo  2002-04-30 07:47:10 ( ID:timdfjjbdja )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I'm using a 480x480 source and trying to make a 480x480 output MPEG2. I have video settings to center at custom size 480x480, yet i'm still getting a 640x480 output, with an improper aspect ratio! What am I missing.....


Olli  2002-04-30 09:12:16 ( ID:k24fqlswccn )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

What have you got your source set to ?


ASHY  2002-04-30 10:08:02 ( ID:4adzcnohuc. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

There are two ways to do this seeing as your output is the same as the source.
You need to set your source aspect ratio to '4:3 display' and your output ratio to '4:3 display'.
Set the Video arrange method to 'Full screen (keep aspect ratio)'

Or, and this is the method I would choose, select 1:1 for both the output and source aspect ratio.
Make sure the output frame size is 480x480 under the video tab in both cases.

ASHY


ASHY  2002-04-30 14:38:46 ( ID:4adzcnohuc. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Just a correction. I've got myself back to front.

I should have said the preferred method would be to set your source aspect ratio to '4:3 display' and your output ratio to '4:3 display'.
Make sure the output frame size is 480x480.
This will give you the correct ratio for your TV.

ASHY


Politburo  2002-04-30 16:54:05 ( ID:hqwmcqxrv/m )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I have done this, or so I believe, and it still comes out as 640x480. Everything I can see is set as 480x480 4:3..


ASHY  2002-04-30 22:01:46 ( ID:n3gjkhi6dvc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

It is impossible for it to come out at that resolution if you set it at 480x480.
How are you verifying that the resolution is at 640x480?
Download this program and open your file and copy the statisics and paste them here. http://teco.emg.hu/bitratev/BV.EXE
Also set the file up as you would to encode it then copy and paste the info from TMPG that you can see at the bottom. For example:
MPEG-1 352x240 29.97fps CBR 1150kbps, Layer-2 44100Hz 192kbps

ASHY




Politburo  2002-04-30 22:25:42 ( ID:hqwmcqxrv/m )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I am using WMP to view resolutions..
Super Video-CD NTSC (MPEG-2 480x480 29.97fps CBR 635kbps, Layer-2 44100Hz 224kbps)
is the info line.. will d'l the BV.exe


kingsley  2002-05-01 15:28:02 ( ID:0dppykrwfmg )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Politboro let us know how it works out.

Windows Media Player gives me a problem with retaining details about a file - when file is re-made the old details are still displayed. I don't think too highly of WMP. Don't know if this is your issue, but I have gotten good at cleaning the old info out of WMP memory :)

Question - TE25 - tmpgenc file size limit No.20265
Wanman  2002-04-30 05:27:14 ( ID:vndv.clka1. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Is there a limit to the file size that TMPGEnc can deal with? Because whenever I get to the 4GB size it stops encoding and will go no further. i have plenty of disc space, etc. etc.


ffast  2002-04-30 07:02:12 ( ID:rq73n1voqvj )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

You got to learn file size limitation of Windows, not TMPGEnc.


ASHY  2002-04-30 11:41:28 ( ID:n3gjkhi6dvc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Your problem is the FAT32 file size limit.
If you need to create a file bigger than that you will need to format your drive using the NTFS file system in either NT Windows 2000 or Windows XP.

Question - TE25 - Custom GOPs sequence possible? No.20262
KSmut  2002-04-30 03:12:12 ( ID:/i1ldoowiqj )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Is it possible to customize the GOPs in TMPGEnc? For example, I ripped a movie, and according the *.IDX file, the sequence is IPBBPBBPBBPBBPBB. Notice that the second frame listed is a Primary (P) frame, not a Secondary (B) frame! Is there a way in TMPGEnc to match that? Or am I stuck with the same old sequence of IBBPBBP... ?

TIA


ASHY  2002-04-30 11:19:00 ( ID:4adzcnohuc. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

It is possible, but I don't know if I would recommend it.
But give it a try with a small test file to see if it makes a difference.
Under the GOP structure tab tick the force picture type setting then click setting.
Click on the first picture then pres Ctrl+P. Paste in the GOP pattern from
the .IDX file then click OK then click ok again in the Force picture Type box.

ASHY


ASHY  2002-04-30 11:38:20 ( ID:4adzcnohuc. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Oh by the way a (P) frame is Predictive frame not a primary frame. It is predicted from the previous (I)Intra frame and a (B) Bi-directionally interpolated frame is predicted from the previous and next (I) or (P) frames.

Sounds good doesn't it, but don't ask me to explain GOPs. It's all in my head and I can just about understand it myself. GOPs and Matrixes are far to complicated to be played with so I leave well alone as the standard setting always seems to give the best picture quality.
