I use this program to convert *.avi to *.mpg file to make a VCD.
I haven't had any problem so far with this program until recently
when I upgraded my CPU from Celeron 400 to PIII/550 and added my RAM
from 192 MB to 912 MB. (it's not a big upgrade.. I know..).
Anyhow, this .avi file I got from a friend is a dvd rip, which is a very good quality. And I converted it to .mpg using TMPGenc and the result is
not good and unwatchable at some certain points. There are small black and white
squares growing everywhere in the screen and disappear at some point then they grow back again.
Can anyone tell me how to fix this problem? is this a common problem?
I didn't change any setting in the TMPGenc, I just the wizard and go with the original settings. So, is it my CPU? or is there a setting that I need to set in the program?
Your settings aren't probably right, remember the settings on the output file should match the settings in the input file (bitrate settings, frame rate, etc.). I dont know how to check it with tmpgenc, i use virtual dub to check it, (file information), and then I change the settings in tmpgenc to match it. And don't use the wizard, try using the actual program this time, because the wizard uses the default tmpgenc settings, and this might be why your file doesn't work well. Good luck!
I open an mpg file captured from tv to cut out the commercials. The audio/video is fine on the original, and fine from the beginning to the first cut. After the first cut, when I skip a bit of space, on the second cut(and there after), the video is out of sync with the audio. Can someone please help me with this?
Mpeg files aren"t meant to Be edited, and Tmpgenc"s editor isn"t good For this anyways Cuz Tmpgenc only supports Files encoded By Tmpgenc and it only supports files that are CBR and VBR files will be out of Sync..You should get a Real Mpeg2 editor like "Mpeg2VCR" or "M2-Edit Pro" or Capture to AVI and edit out the comercials then encode the edited AVI to Mpeg with Tmpgenc, you will get Better Quality Cuz Mpeg capture is extremely Lossy....
I have an avi that has been encoded with xvid and I want to convert it to mpg. However, it seems to have some bad frames and the video will freeze at a certain point. I have a program that solves this problem with DIVX files, but it doesn't seem to work with this file. Is it because xvid is used? If so, is there a antifreeze program that works with xvid encoded movies?
Not that I know of But you can use Virtual dub to scan for bad frames and Mask the bad frames and then make a Copy of the file with the bad frames masked or frameserve the file from Virtual dub with the Bad frames Masked...
I have tried to Load 10 to 20 diffrent .mpeg files, and I always get the same error-message, Can not open or unsupported. It did work to load a avi (divx).
This is very anoying, and I hope you have answer for me.
This is Not a "Bug Report" this is is Because you Don"t have the Correct Mpeg2 decoders installed on your Computer, Tmpgenc needs External Mpeg2 Decoders that YOU have to Install to get Tmpgenc to Read Mpeg2 files..If you don"t want to go through installing extra Decoders you can use DVD2AVI to Frameserve the Mpeg2 files to Tmpgenc...
i also have taht same problem
i try opening mpeg2 files, *note i already can watch the mpeg2 files on wmp, etc so i 've go some drivers install*
so when i try to open the mpeg2 with tmpgenc it says,
not surported blah blah
ne help?
Like My answer says you Need Certain Mpeg2 decoders installed of Tmpgenc will not decode the mpeg2 file..You need either ther Ctberlink Mpeg2 decoder or the Ligos mpeg2 decoder...
I am trying to convert a large DivX encoded .avi file into a VCD. I think I've managed to the point where I know how to keep it from stretching vertically - I choose "16:9 Display" for the Source Aspect Ratio and "Full Screen (keep aspect ratio)" for the Video Arrange Method. Is this correct? I also load VideoCD (NTSC).mcf file.
Now I have 2 further problems - first of all, the sound is completely absent. If it's of any significance, the source file has MPEG Layer-3 audio at 157kbps. Any suggestions?
Also, the source file is 71 minutes long, but the .mpg file I've got out of TMPGEnc came out over 2 hours long - after 71 minutes, the rest was just a still picture of the last shot. Any suggestions on this one?
Any responses greatly appreciated.

Well use Virtual dub to extract the audio to wav and use that as the audio track in Tmpgenc, and Just use the "Merge & Cut" in the Mpeg tools to cut the Long last frame off....
I used the decompressor that comes woth AVI2VCD to decompress the audio first, then I can convert from AVI to MPEG and split the file if necessary into smaller files to fit on VCD
When I try to convert a Xvid codec AVI to MPEG I recive the error "Write Error occured at address 00401CA6 of module 'TMPGEnc.exe' with 03271304"
I have the proper codec installed to veiw this file but can't seem to convert it.
i have this prob sometimes with xvids...i just rencode in virtual dub and change the video comperssion to divx 5.0....then save as avi and let it rencode it..doesnt seem to lose quality.then encode in tmpg
I have installed virtualdub..I have tried to load avi files...several different type and each time it wont let me..I get error messages about not being able to find various dll etc..I have re-installed virtualdub several times but cant get it to work..I am in win XP...any ideas?
I see this questions posted and I have not seen a resoponse. I have the same problem... Can someone help...
I have a avi file that i converted the sound to .WAV via virtualdub. After the the conversion is done the audio is way out of sync with the video. How do I fix this?
After you save the Wav file in Virtualdud, go back to the file menu and select File Information.
Take note of the frame rate of the audio (its at the top of the list), If the rate is 23.976 fps, its an NTSC movie - so when you load the template in TMPGEnc, you shoul dload the NTSC VCD.
Double check the bottom of the TMPGEnc window after loading your template, it will tell you the frame rate (fps) just be sure that the rate that TMPGENc is set too is the same as the fps shown in Virtualdub.

Hi. IáÎ not a beginner on TMPG, but now I have reach a problem which I need help with.
I have 1 big avi (PosTX) file, on appr 1,5 GB, 640x272 (2,351:1) divX and Ac3 sound. The fps is 23.97.....
I now would like to encode it to SVCD with the best result there is to get for an SVCD. I should meantion that the Avi file is in the best quality I ever have seen.
Please help: How can I get the best result, even if the result needs 4-6 cd:s....???????
6 cd's!? Come on be practical.
It's the length of the movie that matters not the size.
Using the CQ method in TMPG you should be able to get around 50 minutes of high quality SVCD on 1 disk.
Bitrate: max - 4000, Min - 1800, Q - 65%
Make sure you select '3:2 pulldown when playback' as the encode mode

Ok, thanks. I will give it a try........
By the way, the film is 3 hours long......
About how much does a DVD-ROM drive cost? And is it possible for a computer set/hard drive to have include a CD-ROM drive along with a DVD-ROM drive? I think my previous computer had this program that can play DVDs, but I don't know if it has a DVD-ROM drive. Unfortunately, something was wrong with the computer and I had to return it. My new computer has no DVD-support!
You guys that have it and can make DVD-Rs are soooooo lucky.....!
DVD-Roms are cheap these days , here in Canada you can get them for about $60, that Just lets you Play DVD"s and Copy DVD"s to your Hard drive, But if you want to actually Burn DVD"s you Need a "DVD-/+RW" which are Much more expensive they are still close to $400 here in Canada and they Burn CD"s also....
Can anyone tell me if there's a way to adjust the synchronization of the audio & video on a movie if it's out of time on TMPGEnc? If so, how do you do it? Please explain it to me step by step or e-mail me the information. I'd greatly appreciate it so much.
There is one a Audio Gap correct feature in the Source range that is suppoed to make the audio start a bit earlier or later,...or you can use the Muxer in Mpeg2VCR or BBMpeg which has a simular feature in there Multiplexors...
