Hi,

I wan't to convert an AVI (Xvid) which has 5 audio channels Dolby
Surround to SVCD. I seems impossible to rip of a two channel WAV
file to be the input file in TMPGenc. It would be nice if you can
encode the Dolby surround channels but stereo will do. Please help.

Thanks,

Marc

You need an Ac3 decoder such as AVImux which can decode the audio to another format such as a wav or Ac3dec which handles Ac3 and Vob files and encodes to wav.

Loads of thanks again ASHY.

I USED TMPG TO SPLIT A MPG FILE THE FIRST PART CAME OUT AS A MASTER SPLITTER FILE WHICH I CONVERTED BACK TO MPEG AND IT WORKED BUT THE SECOND PART CAME OUT AS A MPG.002 FILE AND I CANT DO ANYTHING WITH IT ANY SUGGESTIONS?

sounds like u used hjsplit to split your mpg not tmpgenc

What is a "Master Splitter File"??and Explain your problem in more detail...

I think it's the first part of a set of split volumes which you need to join the volumes back together as one file. Such as like the split files Winrar creates.

After a good time of verry good running tmpgenc is not working anny more by various file's (mpeg) I want to looad. Also an other program (vcdeasy) does't work annymore. PLEASE HELP

Whaat semms to bee tthe probblm. Wee nedd moore infoo.

I have a suggestion to make to get much more people to use your software : making the software have translations !

Your program should provide the option to adapt its Interface to the native language of the user. You can use language files to change the language. You can ask the internet community to translate the program to their native language, they would simply take the English Language file (a simple text file), open it and translate every string in this file.

You just need to make the program use a separate (or not separated) text file to get all the text strings of the interface of the program, and then let the user choose the language in an option menu, or even better detect the language
settings of the computer automatically.

Many programs on the internet now make their program more use-friendly by translating it into the native languages of the users, here are some of them : Abiword (www.abisource.com), Adaware (www.lavasoftusa.com), Cdex (cdexos.sourceforge.net), Leechget (www.leechget.de), LupasRename (go.to/lupas2000), XnView (www.xnview.com), ...


I hope you will apreciate this suggestion

Could you please tell me if there is a method of encoding an mpeg2 file to incorporate Dolby 5.1 or DTS sound instead of stereo???
Thanks

Not unless you are creating a DVD. SVCD and VCD does not support this type of audio.

Hello friends,
Now I have the trouble as follow:
I have Mpeg2 encoded by LSX MPEG Adobe Premiere plugin, and want to burn widescreen dics. My video is 2hrs long. My Source is 16:9 resolution. I exported to 16:9 Mpeg2 file but when I test to playback in WinDVD, it's just full screen not widescreen as I want (must have the black bar on the top and the bottom)although I adjust some options to see widescreen on this player. I don't know why ?

Now I use DVDiT PE to burn but when I select make DVD dics, immediatelly the screen of movie stretch to full screen, not keep the same size as when I import it.
I have Ulead DVD Workshop is good but I don't see it make dics widescreen. If you have any advice, please teach me more about this ulead.
I don't understand much about widescreen anamorph and widescreen letterboxed, but I WANT THE WIDESCREEN WITH BLACK BAR ON THE TOP AND THE BOTTOM. If possible, please explain to me. Thanks for this.

If anyone can help give me a way to get out of my above troubles, I am much grateful.
Any advice or idea appreciated.
Thank you very much in advance.

Thuydinh,

You need a authoring Program that supports 16:9 Widescreen format ..the Ulead DVD Workshop 1.0" did not do Widescreen movies but the new 1.2 and 1.3 versions do recognize Widescreen format...So upgrade to the 1.2 version and you problem should be solved....

Thanks for your guide and I'll do it.

Thuydinh,

WinDVD 3.0 (and probably earlier) does not recognize the 16:9 flag on mpeg file playback.

Version 4.0 works.

Also note that if you trim the beginning of a title in Ulead DVD Workshop, the 16:9 flag is lost.

A program called ReStream can be used to check and toggle the 16:9 flag on demuxed video stream files smaller than 2GB.

You Can also Use "DVD Patcher" to Patch a New 16:9 Flag on the file and you can get it to put the flag at the begining of each GOP....

i tried to convert an avi file to mpeg using the video cd ntsc format. When it completed encoding it had sound but no video. I had the setting set to system with video and audio. Not sure why my video is not converting. do i need to convert the pal to ntsc first? All the avi files i have downloaded seem to be pal when the wizard picks them up. How can i find out if they are pal without using the wizard? I have yet to create a vcd. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Pal video has a fps (Frames Per Second) of 25 where if the video source is NTSC the fps will be 29,97 or 23,976.

As to your problem with sound and no picture, I have no idea as I am experiencing this problem to.

Yes..Pal are 25fps,NTSC Film is 23.9/24 and NTSC is 29.9/30..If the file is say 25fps Pal then you have to encode it as a Pal movie or use a seperate program to convert it to NTSC..Tmpgenc does not do proper Pal/NTSC Conversions so you will get Jumpy playback and the audio will go out of sync...You can use AVISynth to Do the conversion and frame serve the file to Tmpgenc, other programs that are good at Pal/Ntsc conversions are Canopus ProCoder and Advanced NTSC/Pal converter...

I purchased TMPEG Plus last night thinking I would be able to use the full version right away, since my trial version is now expired. I have yet to recieve acknowledgement of payment or my serial number. I really respect what this program does, but am I the only one who finds this out of line? I have sent 2 emails questioning what is going on and have yet to recieve a reply. I would hate to action against this company, but if I don't recieve what I already payed for and was under the impressions I would recieve "shortly"...I will be forced to.

So I guess my question is...how long did all of you have to wait to get your serial number?

This is getting ridiculous.

Hello,
I am new with this program. I have many video files that I need to delete because they are taking up way too much space on my computer. So I am very confused with this process. Can anyone completely guide me throught the process of burning them on a CD? Thanks

When will Multi-Pass more than 2 be added? its been so long. other programs do this already, and have better quality as result

Besides CCE what other encoders have More than 2 passes????

I've been using TMPGEnc successfully for months with MPEG and AVI files. Today I tried loading a QuickTime movie (MOV) just to see what would happen. The movie loaded into the preview window, but an error message popped up from TMPGEnc saying something to the effect "Component missing -- PAL.DLL file not found".

Where does one find the file PAL.DLL?

Do you have the "Mov Quicktime plugin" for Tmpgenc???

No, where do I get it?

Hi there, i just started working with tmpgenc. (I found it on vcdhelp.com)
I tried a to encode a small avi file into vcd(PAL) But while encoding i continually keep getting errors.

IT says ERRROR
-537403781 197008

I have no clue of what it means. When i watch the preview it is ok.

Does anybody know an explanation????

Post it or mail it to dcp@freebox.com

Thanx
