does any one know how to make tmpgenc automatically close when the encoding is done?

Do Not Keep Refreshing the Screen or back spaceing!!!!!!!!!!!

does any one know how to make tmpgenc to close automatically when the encoding is done?

I have received this error just when the program is about o begin encoding. I would like to use this program to do these tasks, but as it stands I am unable to. I noticed other users that had successfully used this program had also run into such trouble as of late. I would very much like to knowthe cause of this problem!! Is this also a problem in the retail??? If it is, then why should I buy it?

I have this problem too!! Any Ideas Anyone?

I to have been receiving nttdll error messages at the start of encoding (especially with xvid files). While fumbling with the program, I realized that if you start off by encoding a normal divx 5.02 file (small snippet), followed by the actual xvid file, the error may sometimes be overcome (though it is still of a random nature)

have successfully encoded a few xvid files to vcd (mpeg files) in this manner. while it is not foolproof, at least there is a chance that it might work. hope the developers are able to address this issue soon.

think i might have found a solution to encoding xvid movies that give nttdll errors. recently tried frameserving the movie from virtualdub into tmpegenc, seems to work fine. however,this is only the video stream, audio stream has to be separately delivered into tmpeg (i.e. can extract the audio as wav from the avi first)

hope it is useful

it might due to the display driver

I am desperately looking for a frame rate conversion software ( between NTSC and PAL ) which is better than TMPGENC. TMPGENC will do the job but results in jerky video ( The way it does the job is to insert or remove one frame for every 4 frames and doesn't do actual frame interpolation ). Virtual Dub and AVI frame rate converter don't do real frame rate conversion, they do the job by reducing or extending the video length. Anybody out there have any idea where to look for such software ?

I wish the tmpg team would add more support for this (i always ended up with jerky playback as well), i asked the same question before, try canopus procoder.

http://www.canopus.com/us/products/procoder/pm_procoder.asp

It says on the website its got full support for converting NTSC to PAL & vice versa.

Thank you for the information, Yam Yam. I downloaded the demo version of ProCoder 1.2 and tried it. It actually makes a big difference. The software is also a little faster than Tmpgenc . The only bad thing is that they are asking a little too much for it : $699 ! But I need it and I think I will buy it.

Tmpgenc Does TERRORABLE Frame Rate conversions and Is Not meant for This at all ..There are specific Pieces of software that are Meant to do this, Like "Advanced Pal/NTSC Converter" and even the "Canopus Format Converter" will do it, actually Both will do it faster than Procoder will Cuz Procoder is One of the Slowest Format converters there is, I have the Full Retail Version of Procoder and I hardly even use it because if this Fact But it is a Very Good Quality Mpeg encoder...and there is a Way to do it Manually also But it takes Quite a Long time especially if you are Converting 29.97fps to 25fps...

Why not just use AVIsynth. It has one of the best frame rate coverters there is as it is based on the same techniques as proffessional frame rate converters.

AVIsynth does a very good job of frame rate conversion and I have used it many times in the past. Not only is it fast, but best of all is totally free.
AVIsynth is a very powerfool tool which can perform practically any job required in video applications.

AVIsynth can be obtained here:

Here you will find the command required for the filter. Click the link for frame rate conversion and look for 'ConvertFPS'. http://www.videotools.net/index.php?rub=guides then click the link titled 'Avisynth Doc'

After encoding the file, I have no audio. The file is WAV format and can be played in the "audio edit". Using audio edit, I've done 400% and normalized to 100, and still nothing. If anyone could help, I'd appreciate it.

You can Try Raiseing the "Wav file reader" in the "Vfapi Plugins", Or you Can Just use a Totally Different Encoder to Encode the audio to Mp2 then mux it with the Mpeg video...

1. make sure you have the VFAPI plugin in the encoder

2.change your enviromental settings

OR

change you audio in the film to .WAV ......... and when u put the film in the program (video), where it says (audio) put the .WAV there which u have created



YOU can create a .wav from Virtual Dub

read up on that if u cant use it .........its VERY VERY easy though

Using 2.510 version of this program, everything is fine. Plays on my Dvd Player, but audio is out of sync or the video that the program DvD decrypter picked the longer video file, but the shorter audio file, does that make sense? Please give advice?

Sometimes when I convert an avi to mpeg I get a stream writing error. How do I stop that

My version of TMPGEnc is a 2001 version,what I would like is amanual to help me use it properly, I would be most grateful if this is possible.

What can I do if an error occured when ACM was initialized?
How can I get it to work again?

Audio Compression Manager. Probably a codec problem. Install the correct codec or install it again.

Sometimes when I try to decode a avi to mpeg I get a script wrtiing error. What causes that.

Thanks

I am sorry. It is stream writing error not script writing error

Hello,
I've been using TMPGEnf for some time now and it seems there is a problem with the framerate conversion. (Not sure if I am correct here) But it seems that when encoding an source file (usually AVI) with a non VCD standard framerate the high motion scenes in the resulting mpeg look jerky as hell. I've searched the forums and found that one way to get around this problem is to not change the framerate when encoding. But lets say the AVI file has 23fps and VCD needs 25fps will DVD players play the VCD since it has wrong fps?

Regards,
TiCaL

Almost all DVD players will play either NTSC or PAL format VCD's but depending on the DVD player you may need the right kind of TV set to watch both types.

If you do convert it with TMPG you will get motion artifacts as TMPG does not do correct framrate conversion. There are however other correct ways to acheive this which you will find somewhere in the archives of this BBS.

I have tried several different ways and 2 other mpeg encoders to try to eliminate red blocky mosiac-like output from my DV500. The original DV in my editor looks great, no artifacts, and the output to VHS is great. After converting to mpeg2 using TMPGE, I have noticed, along with several other Pinnacle owners, that blocks appear on red colors, i.e. red signs, red flowers, red clothing, etc, and that it takes on a mosiac-like pattern.
This output is annoying and degrades the overall quality of the video, especially when there is movement.

I saw that there is a tab for canopus AVI files to lessen that effect. Why only canopus? Is there a way to eliminate the blocks aside from Noise Reduction and inter/intra block softening? I have tried those options with no change in the blockiness of the output.

Could it be that Canopus has a better AVI codec than Pinnacle? Any comments would be welcome. I'm trying hard to understand why this might be taking place and Pinnacle, after stating that they would look into the problem, has not offered any explanations.

Never mind...

I dumped the Pinnacle product and bought a DVStorm2.
