Nu2vCds  2002-11-03 21:23:45 ( ID:mmb3b1awpuj )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I have both vdub and tmpg, I am trying to load the .avi to the video source on the tmpg program, but I keep getting the error, "can't open file, unsupported." The file has been scanned in vdub and has no errors. I am new to making vcds, can someone please help?

Dis you go to "Options" to "Enviromental Settings" to "Vfapi Plugins"a dn Raise the "Direct show" to "2"??? if not then do it cuz it should fix the problem...



Request - TE25 - Please add AVI Segment Loading No.30273
Videod00d  2002-11-03 18:44:50 ( ID:0jnhaaa4ig2 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Hello. I am a paying customer of TMPGEnc who gave out the $50 for this EXCELLENT piece of software. I love TMPGEnc, and I use it every single day. I recommened all of my friends and people on the internet to buy this fine software.

BUT.. Even so, there is just 1 thing missing in this software that makes me unhappy:

Loading AVI Segments!

It's such a simple feature and it's in so many free software out there already, including the likes of VirtualDub. I just can't understand why TMPGEnc doesn't do it? If I have a movie that is broken down into 10 Avi segments of 2 GB, why can't TMPGEnc just load the first one, then load all additional segments, and encode it all together as a single encoded mpg file? I know there is batch mode, that's not what I want.. I don't want to have to 'merge & cut' pieces of encoded mpg. I just want TMPGEnc to encode each AVI segment, one at a time, in a single mpg movie all together.

PLEASE guys. I beg for this one feature, you would simplify my life so completely. Right now I have to frameserve & waste so much time with other applications. If you add this, I can delete them all and leave only TMPGEnc installed on my box for the ultimate AVI to MPG tool. After having read these boards for several months, I know I'm not the only one who would benefit from this feature. If you add it, you will greatly simplify the video process for a lot of people and probably sell even more copies of TMPGEnc as a result. Thanks!

This implementation has been talked about and planned for Quite a while But I don"t think it will be implemented untill the Version 3.0 comes out which will have to be purchased cuz it won"t be available as a free upgrade...If you are encodeing mpeg2 files CCE has a feature to Load sequential AVI files...


Videod00d  2002-11-05 00:19:40 ( ID:0jnhaaa4ig2 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

:(

OK I will pay a little bit more for this feature, and upgrade. But can we get it at the upgrade cost and not buy another full version?

Also if this is ever implimented authors PLEASE do me a favor: Accept AVI segments as part of a single movie if their frame rate is only a tiny fraction of a decimal off. Virtual dub won't load this and it's silly.

If I have segment 1 at 29.9704 FPS and segment 2 at 29.9706 FPS there is no reason the software (Virtual Dub in this case) should refuse to load them. I can see a difference of 1 or even .1 FPS but not .0002.

sunman  2002-11-03 17:55:14 ( ID:gd.kqjn4erl )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

The last couple of movies I downloaded off of imesh are not able to be fast forwarded manually..say when I am trying to convert them using TMPGEnc....any reasons for this?


Ashy  2002-11-03 20:14:28 ( ID:n3gjkhi6dvc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Are they AVI's? If so it is probably because they are highly compressed and have no keyframes.

You can try and insert keyframes manually with Virtualdub, but why bother? When you have encoded to MPEG you will be able to seek the file no problem.

ASHY


Minion  2002-11-03 22:25:35 ( ID:w8yn5mktf8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

But if you want to be able to seek the Mpeg file properly you should inset Chapters with your authoring program cuz if for some reason when watching the VCD you have to stop it(get popcorn)you will have to start watching from the beginning of the VCD and fast forward to were you left off and this can be quite anoying...


MFARBER  2002-11-03 18:22:14 ( ID:mb0jmawxucw )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Thanks, but unfortunately this error has happened again "46601 s packets cause buffer underflow" when I opened TMPGEnc from the original folder. I am trying to convert my test MPEG1 video/audio clip into Video CD format so I can burn it to CD-R and play it on my DVD player.
Please help!!! I am new to all this technology.
Thanks a lot!



Question - TE25 - divx5pro conversion problems in result mpeg1 No.30262
lehmann  2002-11-03 17:10:27 ( ID:kumfi/c5ku6 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

When I convert to MPEG1 a divx5pro file, it produces a video file that make smalls skips in the mpeg/image (it seems tmpgenc "eat" some frames in the result mpeg1 video)

any idea?

I can send a small example of mpeg file on request.


Ashy  2002-11-03 17:12:45 ( ID:n3gjkhi6dvc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Let me guess. You have encoded the MPEG to a different framerate to that of the original?

ASHY


lehmann  2002-11-03 17:28:11 ( ID:kumfi/c5ku6 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

no....
both were at 24/25 fps (PAL standard):

source: divx5pro

640x272 , audio extracted woth virtual dub to a wav, then mixed. 24 fames/second

Target: PAL vcd standard

any idea?


lehmann  2002-11-03 18:18:02 ( ID:kumfi/c5ku6 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

WAIT!!!!

seems you are true, the exact frame rate works fine if you preserve the decimals 23.97 source (not 24) and the frame target at 23.97 (NTSF).


Thanks a lot.
Greetings from Spain


Ashy  2002-11-03 20:11:48 ( ID:n3gjkhi6dvc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Just as I thought. TMPG doesn't do correct framerate conversion. Even that small amount of difference will cause the jerky playback.

ASHY


Minion  2002-11-03 22:22:59 ( ID:w8yn5mktf8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Yor right Ashy, you cant encode a 23.9fps file to 24fps, like you can"t encode a 29.9fps to 30fps....


Minion  2002-11-03 22:35:55 ( ID:w8yn5mktf8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

PS: you Can Not use 24FPS as a Pal Movie...Only 25fps....

Have installed/uninstalled version 2.58 three times because error message "Can't load P3Package.dll" occurs right after specifying output file name. Any ideas .



Ashy  2002-11-03 17:11:16 ( ID:n3gjkhi6dvc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Is the file actually in your TMPG folder?

My advice is to completely remove TMPG from your system and download a fresh copy then try again.

Hi..I hads the exact same problem. All you need to do is open the TMPGEnc program from the actual folder as opposed to say, opening it from a shortcut on your desktop. Let me know if this helps.

Ken  2002-11-03 13:51:30 ( ID:mow3tya8z62 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Hi
I'm a newbie to this ripping and thought i was doing ok, but-

I'm using latest plus version and from m'peg tools "merge & cut" I've cut first cd portion to hdd but when I try to cut 2'nd portion from time line using open bracket at 72min & close bracket at last frame, which gives frame number to box the program runs fine till end of audio track then freezes up on completion of audio track immediately before starting the merge.

I've tried many times, used end of timeline and last frame, just in from end, but allways a freeze at this same point regardless of last (close) bracket position. Allways need XP Pro task manager to close TMPGEnc. Then on restart same, time after time.

Please help

Ps rip was from DVD not Download off net.

Regards Ken

You have to be patient. That is not the end of the process. TMPG has to write the headers to the file. Just go and have a coffee or something and it should eventually complete.

Hi again

Thanks for comment, in reply to ASHY: No, it's not a time problem, what I mean is that the TASK MANAGER says "TMPGEnc Not Responding" the program really locks up. Ive loaded the TMPGEnc trial version and installed the Vafpi plugin which I don't think I had before, I havn't tried it yet, could it be this 'Vafpi'?

Thanks to all who offer help.

Regards Ken

I have this problem EVERY time with Tmpgenc ..It will alow you to Cut the First Half of the movie But the second half allways freezes after scanning the audio stream...There isn"t really anything you can do about it accept use a different mpeg editor......


Ashy  2002-11-03 23:03:37 ( ID:n3gjkhi6dvc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I must be the luckiest person on this BBS.
I can honestly say I hardly ever, if ever have even a small percentage of the problems experienced by others using this BBS.
One thing I do know is I run a clean system with only the software and codecs I need only, any unecessary software or things which could cause conflicts, such as having installed more than one DVD player, are uninstalled.

This leads me to believe it's down to a badly configured system or one which is so full of unecessary crap that it's causing problems.

If that is case it seems the best option is to do a re-install of windows.

Ken  2002-11-04 01:13:15 ( ID:mow3tya8z62 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Hi to all

Good news this time! The free TMPGEnc ex their website installed with their vafpi worked first time. I think the problem may have been my failure to install vafpi with my plus version.

I would rather be using my plus version and with vafpi installed on system that should work now, I think?

What I did notice is that the free version TMPGEnc Application file is 2621kb, whereas the Plus version I have is 2342kb. So the free application file is 279kb larger than the plus version which seems pretty odd to me. Also the free vafpi install file is 835kb as against my plus versions 785, so again plus version is smaller by 50kb??????????

All the other files in the two 'plus' and 'free' files are identical in size. This is all rather disconcerting to me when the version no's: V.2.58.44.152 and Core Version 1.90.140 are the same. Does anyone know why this is?

This maybe going a bit too far, but like ASHY I try to keep my computer tidy and I get a bit peed off when things don't go! I was up all night with this hicup and being new to ripping problems it's a hard way to learn.

Though I do run 3 DVD software players as I find my old 8x Hitachi DVD Rom works with DVD Genie changing region codes on Win DVD sometimes better than Power DVD or NV DVD.

I'm about to buy a new Asus 52x24x52 CDRW and I've never had a cdrw, can someone advise me on writers? There are heaps of hardware sites but people on this forum must do alot of burning so it seems a fair query?

Thanks for your comments and my regards and admiration to all rippers!

Ken

Question - TE25 - Too short No.30247
kpc180  2002-11-03 13:46:53 ( ID:kppgrhps1oc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

OK a few days ago I burned a DVD but the movie I burned was from kazaa and it was a pal so my dvd does not play it... so I opened my dvd back on my compter and sent the whole Video TS file containg about 8 files named like video ts and vts files with different endings so I went through and found the longest one and ran it through tmpgenc however now the once 56 min movie is only 13 mins can anyone help??? Thanks


Ashy  2002-11-03 14:21:36 ( ID:n3gjkhi6dvc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

All those files make up the complete movie not just the longest one, this is why it's only 13mins long.

You do NOT load VOB files into TMPEG as this is the wrong way to do it. You need to load the files into DVD2AVI and create a d2v project file which you then load into TMPG.

Why don't you just use the original file in TMPG instead of the VOBS?

ASHY


Minion  2002-11-03 22:18:22 ( ID:w8yn5mktf8w )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

What you are trying to do can be a bit tricky cuz you are trying to convert Pal to NTSC which tmpgenc will not do properly..So you should Extract the files as a VOB file with Smartripper and use DVD2AVI to make a WAV and a D2V file(I have problems sometimes with Smartripper D2V"s) then you can use something like "AVISynth" to do the Pal to NTSC conversion to Tmpgenc...But if you have to original file you downloaded then it might be easier to work with it...

What is wrong on my system?


Ashy  2002-11-03 12:55:04 ( ID:n3gjkhi6dvc )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

You must have had a previous version on your system at some time or other. The trial is NOT renewed in each new version.
I'm afraid it's time for you to open your wallet and spend some cash.

I have had the same thing happen. So I bought the product through the Web site, got the serial#, but there seems to be NO PLACE to enter the serial number to unlock the MPEG2 encoding again. Any suggestions? I like this product, but I'm out almost $50 and can't get the program to encode MPEG2.
Thanks!

This just happens sometimes that is why you should Allways scan the Mpeg file for problems before you burn it to disk...There isn"t anything you can do about it now that you have burned it to disk unless you still have the source avi files...

You are probably getting the reeor Because there is something wrong with your avi file..Downloaded files have these problems Very often and the symtoms can Vary from getting any number of errors to makeing your computer freeze..Try frame serveing the file ...

I've been getting those errors too. I found that if you shut down tmpgenc completely and restart it the problem is often fixed. I've been using this program for about a year so far and this is the first time i've seen this particular problem. I had it happen with a bunch of my avi files.
