I just recently reinstalled my OS and updated to the latest version of TMPG (2.59 if I remember correctly). Whenever I try to open a clip to convert, it gives me a "[enter file name here]is not supported or corrupt". Now I know for a fact that those files worked fine on the older version of TMPG, but I just can't seem to get it to work with the new version. All the videos I tried to open are either encoded with Divx5, Divx4 or Xvid. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I figured out what the problem was. It turned out that the Divx 5.0.2 codec could not decode the audio properly. After locating a copy 5.0.1 and installed it, TMPG opened the files without issue.
This is an error in the "Audio Compression Manager" which means that the audio in your File is probably not Supported...You need to extract the audio from your Source file to a WAV file and use that as the audio source...
HI!
I have 3(x2000MB) .vob files of a DVD rip and I want to put them onto 2 SVCDs. How can I add more files like in FlaskMPEG? Now you're asking, why I don't use FlaskMPEG, but I hate it and want to use the TMPGEnc. So how can I put more files togehter in TMPGenc.
Thanks

hi when i encode avi to mpg i get a nasty blocky around action, even the background has blockness. what settings do i need to create a perfect clear pi with out blocks, ne one else get this prob..
Sounds like you have the Bitrate to low...You will get this effect when makeing Standard VCD"s Cuz the standard Bitrate for VCD is to low to eliminate the Macro Blocks...You can make a Non-Standard VCD and raise the bitrate, say to about 1650kbs and you will still get Close to an hour on a CD-r...You shouldn"t get this effect when makeing SVCD"s....
Use bbmpeg for multiplexing video and audio files. TMPGEnc seems to do do it not 100% correctly, at least that's what my burning software Winoncd tells me. After muxing it with bbmpeg it is just fine.

You probably Need to extract the audio from the AVI file to a WAV file with something like "Virtual Dub" or "Sound Forge" , then use that as the audio source...
Had a similar problem with 7... Upgraded to V8 and the problem vanished... The new authoring module is fantastic. Far better than Spruce or MovieFactory... The MPEG2 Encoder has been vastly improved. In actual fact, I can't see any
difference in quality when compared with TMPGEnc... Capture-Edit-Render-Burn all in one package. Greatttttt.
It Can be a Bitrate problem, or many other things...if the Mpeg file before Burning it sounds Fine with good audio then it could be a bitrate problem but you shouldn"t be getting this with DVD"s unless you are pushing the Bitrate limit for DVD...
if i want to cut a larger mpeg-file on several cd`s with mpeg-tools merge&cut, can i tell the programm the limit mb of the cd? because i don`t know the precise amount of minutes to fit on the cd i.e.svcd.
I have the v2.59 Plus and will getting a DVD burner shortly it will likely come with Ulead DVD Workshop. I currently use MSP6.51a for the editing which has the DVD Plug-in.
So, I my question is. As there are ongoing issues relating to the ability to import the MPGs made by TMPGenc when is it likely that the developers will upload a version that is "guaranteed" to function correctly? It should not be necessary to to rework the MPEG2 file for it to be usable in the DVD manufacturing program!
Oh, do the developers keep an eye on this forum to be aware of issues such as this.
I agree, they are both fine products but they need to work in collaboration properly and the corruption caused in TMPGenc will not help it get the wider acceptance it is aiming for.
Did you try sending a support email to Pegasys, and point them to the forums? Not sure if they read these forums or not but I can imagine they do.. So they are probably already aware of it.
I have just made a 4Gb movie using the DVD(PAL).mcf template within Tmpgenc.
I am now trying to put this onto a DVD (so I can play it on a standalone DVD Player), but NERO (lastet version) keeps tell me that it can't do files over 2Gb.
What is the best authoring soft in your oppinion? I'm planning to buy NeroVision Express but on VCDhelp board they say I can not re-encode MPEG files (I did with TMPGenc) with Nero. What do you thinK?
Further down in the forums you will see 2 issues dealing with MPG files encoded with TMPGEnc. In one case a guy is having problems making a DVD title set using Ulead DVD MovieFactory and Ulead DVD Workshop. His files will not import, and in some cases, will not export to DVD. In another case, DVD MovieFactory for me, and SpruceUp will not convert TMPGEnc encoded MPG2 files to DVD Vobs. Always a crash during export.
To those following the issue: The first time I had this bug in DVD MovieFactory, I took the same 2 mpg files that crashed and loaded them into SpruceUp. These 2 files also crashed SpruceUp on export to a DVD title set. I had to chop frames from the start/end of the movie to correct it, so it would burn. In which case, it worked in both packages.
Earlier today.. Again, I had files fail to burn/export in MovieFactory.. But just to be curious, I tried these files again in SpruceUp, AND THEY WORKED. Clearly this is not entirely a TMPGEnc problem. It seems to be more a problem with TMPGEnc and how it relates to other DVD burning applications. I think the question now is, what DVD Authoring package works the best with TMPGEnc?
What I'd like to know is - Do you take Mpg2 encoded files out of TMPGEnc at 352x480? If so, what tool do you use to burn these movies to DVD or create VOBS with them. If you've never seen a single error importing your TMPGEnc mpg2 files, authoring them, and then exporting to DVD? I want to know what DVD authoring package you use.
There is clearly an issue with TMPGEnc/Ulead/SpruceUp. I will continue to download and try some trial DVD authoring packages to see if I can find one that doesn't produce any TMPGEnc mpg file errors and post it here later.
I have had Variours problems with Tmpgenc files but not very often...I usually use CCE these days Cuz the files are perfect for authoring and had never had any sort of error with those files Pluss the Quality is better....
Sure CCE is better, but it also costs $2000 :-(.. I'm only doing this in my spare time as a hobby and certainly couldn't afford that kind of money for a single piece of software. My entire computer system wasn't even that much.
I've also had some problems with TMPGencPlus 2.57 and Sonic DVDit!.
DVDit would crash during export to DVD. The error was really weird: "Frame size too large" or something like that!
I used Bitrate viewer and found that the last two seconds had a bitrate of 19Mbit/s.
So I cutted the last four seconds, Just In Case!
I re-analized the file and this time tha data rate peek was below the 9Mbit maximum for DVD standard.
But even with this choped file DVDit! would not export and would give tha same error message.
