Hi i got this error message when i was converting an avi file to mepeg after i hit start button. error -53740378 165136 came up. does any one know why this comes up? Or what could i be doing wrong.
some suggestions and help would be gratly appriciate
thanks
I have got this kind of error too. But in my case the combination of numbers often change. This error only occurs with some DivX files. If anybody knows about this problem please reply.
Does anyone know how to shrink the height of a video and encode into VCD in one step? I prob can encode the video to a smaller size, then encode again to vcd so it has the letterbox look, but is there a way i can do that in one encode?
hi, i was wondering what steps are needed to be able to convert an avi, which graphedit shows to use the ffdshow mpeg-4 filter. under filter properties, it says it is:
"ffdshow is a DirectShow decoding filter for decompressing DIVX movies.
It uses libavcodec from ffmpeg project for video decompression,
postprocessing code from mplayer to enhance visual quality of low bitrate
movies, and is based on original DirectShow filter from XviD, which is
GPL'ed educational implementation of MPEG4 encoder."
i tried converting with tmpgenc, but the audio worked, how do get around this?
i'm sure i'd have to do something in graphedit, but the only thing i currently know how to do is export the audio with 'wave dest' & 'file writer'. i'm sure there is a similar step for extracting video, which can then be encoded with tmpgenc. any help or suggestions appreciated.
The program works great, but only if i explicitly set the source range. I have to set the end frame by dragging the slider to the end, or otherwise it completely screws up. Every frame takes minutes to encode then, and it seems to think the film is a lot longer than it actually is. Anyway, all this is fixed by setting a source range.
I converted a whole set of .mov's to .mpg using the "Wizard", except one which would not convert. Settings were for NTSC VCD and defaults all the way. All worked fine except one.
On that one, on the page of the dialog where the file to be converted is loaded, error message popped up "PAL.dll not found in ..." and it listed a set of directories including the TMPGEnc folder, Windows folder etc.. After I clicked OK to that, another very similar message dialog pops up, with different list of folders I think.
I searched Google for PAL.dll and TMPGEnc, & other combinations, & nada. ALso checked some VCD sites which are usually good source for this kind of info. Is this PAL.dll a sort of plugin that would be needed to decode files that were PAL in the first place, before the format they're in now? Maybe the file is just corrupt?
All this is with TMPGEnc 2.57 or .58, Windows 2k Pro sp2, 1Ghz Athlon, 512MB RAM, & everything else is fine. Any help appreciated.
I pulled some video off of my ReplayTV. The MPEGs need to be converted before they can be stuffed onto a VCD. I can play the files using some players, however, when I convert them using TMPGENC will convert about half the file and then crash completely. There is no error message the program just disappears.
It does this with almost all of my files (but not all).
Recently I installed Nortons Utility Integrator. I was also recently hit by the bugbear virus, but have since cleaned it from my system.
Although no other programs appear to be affected, I notice that encoding in Tempenc now takes 10 times longer. Whereas before a 42 min program would take 8-13 hrs, now it wants to take up to 150 hours!
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what might be causing this and how I can fix this?
Thanks in advance.
I have a video encoded to VCD (downloaded from newsgroup) and when I try to open it in TMPGEnc to split it I get a fatal exception error. Any ideas as to why this is.
There is probably some sort of error in the Mpeg1 file..If you can"t get it loaded into the "Mpeg Tools,"Merge and cut" or "Multiplex or "de-multiplex" then There a a couple tools that are supposed to help fix corrupted Mpeg files like VCDGear which might help..
Hi!!
I have a problem.....can someone help me?!?
I have convert with TMPEG my Dv video captured from my camcorder in MPEG2 format....so the format isn't really MPEG2 but is owner DV format.....on my pc i can read this file with Windows Media Player but on other pc the video isn't read becouse Windows Media Player don't found the codec.....
Which codec i have to find/download to allow windows media player read this video?
Thanks for your help!!!
So the problem is that you can"t play Mpeg2 files made by Tmpgenc in "Media Player"?? To play Mpeg 2 files with Media player you need a Mpeg2 codec like the "Elecard Mpeg2 codec" but the codec can cause sync problems in media player and it is a Over all Buggy Codec..You are better off getting a software DVD Player like "Power DVD" to watch Mpeg2 files with...
Thanks!!!!
But i see my video in Dv Mpeg2 normally on my pc!!!But i don't found which codec i have installed with TMPEG or another program......
You know how i get this information??!?
If i found the correct code that i have on my pc, i can share my dv video on other pc.....
You didn't mention which Windows OS you use; however, you might try looking in Control Panel for an icon that reads "Multimedia." Click on the "Devices" tab and open up "Video Compression codecs." Chances are you'll find the codec/s you want to add to your other system to successfully play the file.
I have no experience copying or manually installing a video codec into an OS; you'll have to find out how to do that.
im trying to encode some video into mpeg-2 for DVD and almost everytime no matter what program i use, i get these occasional green flashes that only last one frame. the weird thing is, none of these errors are in the original AVI file. ive tried TMPGENC 1.2, LSX version 3.5, LSX 1.2 plugin for premiere and they all do it. i even tried changing the bitrate around and it still does it. does anyone have any ideas on what might be causing this or better yet, how to solve it?
When I convert a file to mpg, the video does not show up when I try to play the file after it is complete. I am nto sure if I am missing something or what. Please help
Usually if there is a Picture in the Tmpgenc window while encodeing then there will be a picture in the file but if there is no picture in the window then there won"t be a Picture in the file, you can probably correct this by going to "Options" to "enviromental settings" to "vfapi Plugins" and raise the "Direct Show" to "2"...
