I tried to use virtualDub to frameserve Tmpgenc Plus. I installed the readAVS to tmpgenc. And follow the instruction of it. But tmpgenc will not read it. Just say "not supported". The readme in readavs said it was tested in win98. I use win2000. Is that the problem?
hello hope someone can help me im trying to convert avi to mpeg using tmpg.but im just getting a black screen with sound,ive encoded a few films and all been ok.i recently restarted my pc and now nothing ive tried raising direct show to 2 but still a black screen can someone please help. THANKS FOR ANY REPLYS

If Raiseing the "Direct show" Didn"t help then make sure you have the Proper codec installed and if you do have the proper codec then Maybe re-install the codec and if that doesn"t work see if you can open the avi file in Virtual Dub and if you can then try frame serveing the file with V-Dub and if V-Dub will not open the file then there is something wrong with the File....
DONT INSTALL ANGEL POTION!!!!!! It is a Hacked Codec that can Cause Major Problems when Running Tmpgenc, Your files can end up with a Purple and Pink Picture, and If you have Madia Player 9 then that is Your Problem ,,,,
I agree with Minion don't install that crap on your PC unless you like pink blotches on your movies. Your problem is Mediaplayer 9. Roll back your system with system restore.

damm.. i'm pissed about this... no sound after i encode a file from avi , and programs that can extract da audio from da avi file? gimme a good program
This Has Nothing to Do with XP or SP1 Cuz I run XP with SP1 and the merge & Cut works fine..If you are trying to open Mpeg 2 files in the Merge & Cut then you need to have the proper Mpeg2 decoder installed or you will not have an image in the Editing window and not be able to edit the File....
I was created MPEG2 (SVCD stream) file by TMPGEnc.
Then I tried merge/cut this file but can't opened...
TMPGEnc view screen: "Couldnot initialize DirectShow filter".
More early it was fixed and I has no this problem.
Now I has this message on other my computer too...
What can I do??? How fixed it?
i got the same problem with the merge and cut tools
but for Winxp SP1, i got a problem running TMPGEnc 2.59 & 2.510 cause they both break MPEG files, some identifiers can read the header correctly, but the data can't be used by TMPGEnc & can't be read by the default windows media player 9
codec problems in Winxp ?
2.53 works perfectly under XP, i couldn't find any other versions to try out yet
Oh dear seems like you have installed that crap Media player 9. Tut tut, you'll have to restore your sytem I'm afraid. Media player 9 is causing many a problem like this.
Here is what I am doing ... my Apex 500b will not play MP3s, so I am encoding them as MPEG-1 VideoCD (non-standard), this way they will play when I create a VCD thru Nero and I am able to put a lot of files on 1 CDR.
Now, I start TMPGEnc and select MPEG Tools, select MULTIPLEX, select MPEG-1 VideoCD (non-standard) in the drop down list, then click the ADD button to add my MP3. I was able to process one MP3 to MPG this way. I cleared the list and clicked the ADD button to add another MP3 to process but it will not show up in the list. I have rebooted my system, and open TMPGEnc again and tried to ADD the MP3 again and it will not show up in the list. I have tried the same MP3 that I already processed but it will not show up in the list too. So I am at a stand-still as to why.
Has anyone out there run into the same problem ? Does anyone out there have a solution to this, it would be greatly appreciated or if you have another way of doing this, I would love to hear it, thanks
What the hell r u trying to do??!!
Convert an mp3 to a compatible Mpeg1 file using the multiplexer.
Sorry but this can't be done.
All you have done is given your Mp3 file an MPEG1 header and changed it's extension.
It's still won't play in any DVD player.
You cannot do it this way but I can tell you a method you can use which will allow you to fit 8-10 albums in mp2 format on one disk and will play on your player.
Vey strange machine that APEX. I think your method works partly because of the APEX's ability to play raw MPEG. I have tried this method with a few other machines and it doesn't work. I know that those disks won't be accepted in most other players, but this other method will.
I need to send you the Templates for it so I need your email.

Really hope this isn't covered on the forum elsewhere...I have converted painfully low framerate .rm files to uncompressed AVI's and now am trying them to get them to go AVI2MP1 with TMPG. Problem is the original video and audio is one length, but in the rate conversion (using NTSC DVD settings), the video files are turninng up shorter (about 40% shorter - no missing frames, just total video track length is shorter because of framerate process???). This, of course, is making the A/V out of synch.
Specifics:
.RM (5fps RGB 152x96) to AVI (5fps Main Concept DV *resized in a 4-sided letterbox to 720x480)
real audio to WAV [TINRa & AVI2WAV] (Resampled to 41khz, 16-bit)
AVI conversion in TMPG (NTSC DVD 29.97fps 720x480 CG:80, VBR 8kbps max.)
the average length change is about 60% of the origianl AVI after the conversion.
I am processing the Video seperate from the audio track. I use BeSweet to convert WAV2AC3 (no change in length). Should I use CBR, or keep the WAV and MP1 stream together and out to a MPG? Any suggestions, or obvious reasons for why the resulting MP1's are coming up so short? Maybe do a framerate conversion with AVISynth first...just trying to keep the steps to as few as possible as I have about 20 of these 3 hour RM streams to convert to DVD.
Alright. I've run into this problem a couple of times before but neglected to ask for help. When i encode my DivX files into MPEG1, TMPEnc gets the video length wrong somehow. Most of the files I encode are only 22 to 23 min long but when i goto encode them TMPEnc says it's a 71 min movie. This makes the file size incredibly large. About 700 megs for an .avi file that is 180 megs.
Are you saying that in the Files after the Movie is finnished that there is a Bunch of blackness or someting simular at the end or maybe a Half an hour of the Last frame or something like that???? if so then use the Merge & Cut to cut off the exxess at the end of the file....
When I encode for SVCD I sometimes see "Inverse Telecine" option checked in the Advanced tab. I understand that this option allows to go back to the original film standard 24fps. But why would I want to do that?
Can anyone described a real life situation what this is needed? Again, I understand what it does, I do not understand why and for what purpose this should be used.
I am trying to encode a SVCD from a DIVX avi movie with 29.97 fps. The fps should remain the same, so why the inverse telecine option is checked?
Inverse Telicline can only be done properly with source files that were originally 23.9/24FPS Film material then teliclined to conform to the NTSC Standard of 29.97/30fps..You would use IVTC to turn your Interlaced 29.97/30Fps Source Back to Original Progressive Film at 23.97Fps..It would get Rid of all Interlaceing artifacts..
You should always use the IVTC option with movies that were originally 24/23.976 fps or preferably the ForcedFILM option in DVD2AVI.
This will save loads of hassle with interlacing artifacts and also save some file size in the outputted movie.
Thanks a lot - now it starts to make sense. But what I do not understand is this - I had a avi file which was not 24 fps, with the following (AVIcodec report)
-----------------------------
File : 609 Mb (609 Mb), duration 1:55:45, type AVI, 1 audio stream(s), quality 35 %
Video: 529 Mb, 639 Kbps, 29.970 fps, res. 352*240 (4:3), DIV3 = DivX v3 ;-) MPEG-4 (Low-Motion).
Audio : 79 Mb, 95 Kbps, 44100 Hz, 2 chan., 0x55 = MPEG Layer-3
------------------------------
I wanted to encode it to SVCD and did it using TMPGenc Plus. The IVTC option was checked by TMPG, I did not uncheck it and the follwing was the result (also AVIcodec report):
Both streams are 29.970 fps, and both are 352*240. Why would TMPG decide to IVTC it? It was not originally 24 fps, as you said. Or you meant that id anything was encoded from originally 24 fps, the IVTC should be used to re-encode it even from another 29.970 fps-encoded stream?
In that case ALL streams that are re-encoded from ANY stream that was originally recorded from ANY movie should be IVTC-ed? Even if they are DVD-ripps?
It is unlikely that TMPG checked the IVTC for you. This must have been done by mistake by you.
How did you set TMPG up, did you use the project wizard?
In any case this option should remain unchecked for your movie. Only NTSC DVD's can usually be IVTC'd
Secondly you have created a seriously non standard SVCD.
File : 767 Mb (1103 Mb), duration 1:54:58, type MPG, 1 audio stream(s), quality 77 %
>Video : 945 Mb, 1150 Kbps, 29.970 fps, res. 352*240 (16:9), MPG2 = MPEG 2 (SVCD/DVD)
The frame size is wrong for SVCD it should be 480x480. The Video bitrate is far too low for SVCD. These settings are for MPEG1 VCD not SVCD.
>Audio : 157 Mb, 192 Kbps, 48000 Hz, 2 chan., 0x51 = Mpeg-1 audio Layer 2 [0xc0]
The audio is the wrong sample rate and will not play in most DVD players. It should be 44100 hz.
I can explain alot about the framerate. The 24fps frame rate is also there for 8mm film conversion. For expample I converted my orginal 8mm which is normally played at 24fps. BUt now it is played at 29.97 fps. That feature allows me to bring the footage back to it's original state. I hope this helps.
I cannot get sound to work in this program, I've tried re-installing different versions more than once. The program used to work fine on my system and now there is no sound at all. I'm trying to convert a quicktime movie and I have the plugin for it but when I did the mpg convert it didn't have sound, so I went to preview the file inside Tmpgenc and there was no sound there either. My second test was to open a normal mpg file and it also had no sound in the preview and when I did a convert from mpg to mpg it had no sound. This is weird folks, what did I do wrong and how can I fix this?
There is a Problem with Tmpgenc encodeing the sound in Mov files..You have to extract the audio from the Mov files to wav format and then use the wav as the audio source in Tmpgenc..I don"t know of any Freeware programs that will do this But I know something like Sound Forge or Adobe Premier will do it...
Thanks for the info. It's funny though because I've even opened the same files that I converted before and it used to work fine. Not only is there no audio for quicktime, I don't get audio for mpg or anything else, theres just no sound in my program for some reason, I can't figure this out. I tried radtools too and it also had no sound, maybe I did or installed something on my system that messed everything up...ah well, I format once every 3 months anyway, I suppose now is as good as any.
