'Stream read' error means there is a problem with your file. 'Stream write' error means your target drive or your Temp drive doesn't have enough space.
I have a number of anime, cartoons etc....wich i wish to encode to MPEG-1 or vcd, but the templates for VCD are 25fps (PAL), PAL is the format i prefer (i am Aussie!, or the NTSC wich is either 30fps or 24fps......
Can i encode these 15fps avi files to vcd?? if so how??
You will need to Frameserve from AVisynth if you want PAL 25fps.
Avisynth can convert the frame rate to 25 fps correctly. TMPG doesn't do correct frame rate conversion as the playback will be jerky.
If you want to keep it simple you can convert to NTSC 30fps.
Follow the steps below:
Load your file and set TMPG up for NTSC encoding as normal then under the 'Video tab' where it says 'Frame rate' click the 'setting' button and type in these values: 30 / 2 = 15 now click 'Ok'
The frame rate should say '15fps (internally 30 fps)'
Go ahead and encode as normal, your file will playback normally at 30fps and will be compatible for NTSC VCD.
Thanx Ashy!
I am willing to give avisynth a go and convert the original 15.00fps avi file into a 25.00 avi file whilst still keeping the PAL format. I downloaded avisynth but the core file is a .dll, as avisynth is not a stand alone program and just a .dll file, which program do i run avisynth in??
Read the AviSynth documentation. Basically, you write a script stating what you want to happen, and save this as a .avs file. Then you open this .avs file in the application of your choice (e.g. TMPGEnc) as you would do for an .avi file.
Behind the scenes, the .avs file is associated with the AviSynth DLL, which appears to the application as a codec, and feeds processed AVI frames to it.
Hi,
I'm making an MPEG-1 for a VCD and when I encode to MPEG1 I get weird purple colors in in parts of the new MPEG-1 file that were not there in the original AVI. I tried several different settings and get the same thing every time!
Can anyone help??
Thanks,
Lisa
Slippy I just encode a small 10 second piece in the middle of the clip where the purple is pretty bad and It looks like it's encoding it right into the video??

Running TMPGEnc Version 2.59 on NT 4 SP 6a with 128 MB memory.
I am trying to convert a 15 minute Windows Media Format V8 to MPEG1, but it will only encode the first 30 seconds or so... then it stops with either "out of memory" or "cannot read video". Task manager shows a steady increase of memory usage for tmpgenc.exe while encoding until max is reached. Is this a bug in Windows Media codec or TMPGenc?
Sorry, ASFTools finds no errors and only extracts the sould stream (not convert it), and dbpoweramp refuses to convert the sound stream as well. The codecs refuse to install under NT4. Strange, because the V8 Audio codec alreay is available under Media Player.
I need another solution. I feel much better if TMPGEnc fixes it's memory leak.
I've converted AN AVI movie to mpeg1 w/TMPGEnc video is great but no audio
i'm a newbie so i have no idea where to go from here - also idon't understand the settings on the audio tab any help would be greatly appreciated
The audio in your AVI Files is Not Supported in Tmpgenc..You need to extract the audio to a WAV file with something like "Virtual Dub" or "AVI-MuX" then use the wav file as the audio source...
I'm trying to create an XVCD from a DVD (NTSC film) source with nonstop action. Even with stationary subjects, the camera is in constant motion. I'll be playing the XVCD on a Panasonic RV32 DVD player, which has a maximum data rate of about 2500 Kb/s for a CD-R/CD-RW source. What would be the best TMPGEnc settings to minimize motion artifacts? I'm willing to accept a standard VCD pixel resolution if necessary. The program only runs about 30 minutes so the final file size isn't too much of a consideration. Thanks in advance.
I've done some DivX to DVD-format conversions on my server (PIII-500, 256, W2K srv) without any problems. Now, to speed the process up a little, I want to do the same on my WKS (P4-1700, 512, Xp Pro).
When I try to do this I get "filename.avi can not open or unsupported."
Why? What shall I do to fix this? I can see the divX's on my Wks so I don't think it means that I don't have the right codecs installed.

Every time I try to use TMPGEnc with an audio track it crashes.
I have a ReplayTV 5040 and I have tried all quality files: standard, medium and high. The files play find in WinAmp or Microsoft Media Player or any number of other players.
It seems to be audio related because if I used DVD2AVI make a *.d2v file and .mpa file (which holds the audio I assume) I can load the .d2v file fine and encode anything and everything but once I load the .mpa file it crashes.
This same thing happens with if I use the MPEG tools in TMPGenc to break out the Audio track to a mp2 file and a m2v video fileEas soon as I tried to load the mp2 file it crashes.
Of course the mpg files from the ReplayTV had the audio embedded and they crash right off the bat when I tried to load them.
The crash is always that same ÅÆxception Floating-point invalid operationE. Exc0000090) occurred in the application at location 0x10005dd9E
Has anyone else seen this? I have say TMPGEnc works great with just the video part of the file but the audio I driving me nutsE
There could be an error in the audio header But why in the world would you be encodeing the Mpeg audio file anyways, The audio is allready in the correct format for Mpeg so just de-mux the mpeg file and just re-mux the audio with the encoded Mpeg file..Re-encodeing the audio will Just degrade the audio quality and Can cause Sync issues so You should NOT encode the audio if it is allready in Mpeg audio format...
