i have a huge problem... i had tmpgenc and it was working properly and then all of a sudden it stopped working it said there was an error and will shut down. under environmental settings it said i needed tmpgenc.vfp. is there anyone out that can help me????? pleaseeeeee! nicole
I saw someone else ask this question and I never saw the answer to it. I am using virtualdub to extract the audio wave file then using the tmpg2.9 to split the avi and audio into two mpg files but the second file the sound is a couple seconds before the video, how do I correct this?
If this is Just with the Mpeg file then you can use a Program like "Mpeg2VCR" to Mux the audio and video together Cuz it has a Feature to off set the audio to match the video...
Alright...I'm capturing my files in Premiere via FIrewire from my DV camera. Let's say I capture an AVI file, save it and open it with TMPG....opens fine, no problems. Now, I take the same file, edit it with files of the same settings, export it with the same settings, and try to open it with TMPGenc. It give me an error that says unsupported. Any suggestions why? If it's all the same settings shouldn't it be able to open it no problem??? Any help is appreciated. THanks
Make sure that the AVI compressor is the same in all cases. Uncompressed
AVI files seem to work for me. The DV compressor in Premiere is OK, but
it seems that TMPGEnc likes to encode it at half-resolution (at least with
the codecs I have installed).
What I would recommend is to export from Premiere directly to TMPGEnc,
without writing out the intermediate AVI. You can do this with the
Avisynth program, which you can get for free. There is an Avisynth
plugin for Premiere, so all you have to do is set the export type to
Avisynth, set up a couple of other files, then tell TMPGEnc to open one
of them, and suddenly Premiere will be talking directly to TMPGEnc.
I'm running a compression process for DVD as I type this, which was DV video
edited in Premiere and sent directly to TMPGEnc for encoding.
in the setting screen video, changing the values maximum, minimum and average bitrate I always obtains the same final size...this does not happen with version 2.58
Muxing etc is one area of TMPGenc that I have never ventured into.
I have version 2.58 still on the PC and will have to try remuxing a file to see the effect on file size but I would like to think that the developers will be able to release a fixed version 2.59 as soon as possible.

Hi, I have an intermittant sound problem when using TMPGEnc. After converting AVI files to MPEG2 for DVD anything longer than 10 mins resuls in the sound dropping out for approx 1 second at exactly the same point 9mins 37 seconds. This happens on various settings.
Thanks for you comments but I am relatively new to codec's and the way they work. I wonder if you could possibly explain to me how I go about using another audio encoder at the same time I am encoding the video.
OK well a while back I posted praising TMPGEnc for the ability to load AVI segments and encode as a single video file (I still think it rocks)! Then I said in the future, the ability to chain together mpg segments into a single encode would rock too..
Ashy then posted and said it already does this, try it out..
So I did? I have mpeg-2 segments named exactly the same as the AVI segments were. The AVI segments all load up properly chained together in TMPGEnc. But the Mpeg-2 segments will not. It still just loads the first one then stops. Am I missing something obvious here, or was I right to begin with that TMPGEnc will not load multiple mpg segments as a single animation?
Hi, thanks for the tip. I downloaded m2v.vfp and put it into TMPGEnc folder. Then in environmental settings I made sure that the MPEG-2 Video Plug-In was enabled. Now, when I opened a segmented mpg 2 file, it did load all of the segments! I had 109 minutes of mpeg-2 video loaded all at once.
BUT, it shows 'video file' only? The Audio File source doesn't load at all. The mpeg-2 segments actually consist of both video and audio. If I just were to load one of the segments by itself using the normal intervideo mpeg-2 codec, TMPGEnc would load both the video and audio streams. With m2v it doesn't load the audio stream at all.
Am I doing something wrong? Is this plug-in supposed to load the audio with the video source so I can output everything together?
PS: What about Mpeg-1 files, there is no way to load them as segmented source?
I'm trying to convert a QuickTime MOV file to VCD format: What a nightmare.
The file MOV to MPG VCD conversion stalls at 12% each time I try it.
So I thought I would try converting to AVI first, and then going AVI to VCD. This appeared to work okay (it didnt stall at 12%). But when I played the AVI file, colors were a mess, there were red, green, and blue horizontal lines through the entire video, all of the action scenes were basically grayscale, each frame basically consisted of 3/4 of one frame and 1/4 of another frame, and the entire video displayed at about a 25 degree angle.
There HAS to be a way to make this conversion. I'd appreciate any suggestions!
I did MOV to AVI the same way i would convert anything else (such as an oversized MPG) to AVI - Used TMPGEnc, Divx codec, pretty basic stuff that *always* works fine. Can you think of any reason why it turned into such a disaster?
I'm using TmpgEnc v2.58 to convert AVI file ( Divx ) to Mpg file ( VCD ).
It' s a very good software. But i've a little problem with an AVI file.
When I look the movie in windows media player it's Ok. After encoding, when i look the Mpg file ( in windows media player or with BsPlayer ) the Movie freeze and the sound continue normally !!! Strange isn't it !!!
I found the problem the AVI have some frames corrupted. The player can read, But TmpgEnc can't encode correctly and freeze the picture just before the corrupted frame and freeze.
I correct the problem with AVIedit to encode a new time the avi file ( with the same parameters ). Now, TmpgEnc work correctly.
This experience say me that the software like DivFix ( to repair corrupted avi file) doesn't work efficiently, Better work is encode the file a new time.
So, I hope that this experience can be of use to the other users of TmpgEnc
I am trying to convert still jpg pics to mpeg, everything works fine except the audio plays for the full duration and the picture just flashes for a second? Any help would be appreciated...
What do you mean it Just flashes for a Second??One image or Jpeg Picture is Only 1 frame so it will only appear for a 1/24th of a second, you will need at least 24 Jpeg pics to make a Second of Movie with the Frame rate set at 24fps...What you should try is to set the Frame rate to "1fps/24fps Internally" this will make a single Jpeg appear as 1 second of of Movie....
