You can export From the Premier Timeline to Tmpgenc But not useing Tmpgenc as a Plugin ,You would need the "Premier Video Server Plugin" to Frameserve from Premier to tmpgenc..You can download it at "http://www.videotools.net/" But I do not think it is free...There are Quite a Few Mpeg encoder Plugins for Premier that Produce Pretty Good Quality..The New Premier 6.5 has a Fairly good encoder Built in to it which can be updated to a Much better encoder made by "MainConcept"...But there are Better Encoder Plugins than MainConcept like CCE and ProCoder...
Everytime I try to convert .asf files to an mpeg, I get a message that says "tmpgenc.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close". Is tmpgenc compatible with .asf? I'm sorry but, I'm new to video editing. Is there any way I can fix the problem? I'm runnin' WinXP Home with P4 2.4ghz and 256mb of ram.
Tmpgenc is Compatible with ASF files But It sometimes has Problems with them cuz ASF/WMV files are Very prone to errors cuz of the extremely high compression, and these errors in the File can cause Tmpgenc to error out or Crash..There are a Couple things you can try, First just try raiseing the Direct show File reader by going to "Options" to "Enviromental Settings" to "Vfapi Plugins" and raise the "Direct Show Multi-Media File Reader" to "2", then see if it helps, But if it doesn"t then you can try fixing any errors in the ASF/WMV File by downloading a Program called "ASF-Fix"(Look for it on Google) and use asf-fix to repair the asf file and see if that helps..Make sure you have all the latest Windows Media Codecs installed also..And there is a Possibility that the File can not be encoded, Well at least not with tmpgenc...Good Luck...
Thanks, minion. I changed that option to 2 and it didn't work. I'm going to search for the ASF-Fix right now. Thanks again for replying. It's much appreciated.
i've not really new to avi to mpg encodeing but im to the end of my rope trying to fix this problem. this just happen yesterday. i started to encode some files and i walk away to come back 15 mins later to find that my files are either not supported or i have this pointer error operation... wtf is this i have never seen this before. then after that i went and tryied to watch my avi on windows media player to find that there is an error there that will not let me watch my movie!!! i have tried different media players such as winamp, and it worked fine. can someone plz help me.
What version of Media Player do you have??? If it is WMP9 then that could be the Problem cuz Media Player 9 and Tmpgenc seem to be incompatible with each other..If you don"t have WMP9 then Maybe your Files are Corrupted??? Have you maybe tried to Frameserve the Files to Tmpgenc??? This works Sometimes with files that error out in Tmpgenc....
yes i have WMP9 but i have been using it for awhile now with tmpgenc and its worked fine. and what do you mean by frameserve? is it a program or is it something within tmpgenc?
Frameserving is Very important to learn if you are into any Sort of Video Production, And it sure makes things a Lot easier at times, read about it here: http://www.lukesvideo.com/frameserving.html ...It is Quite well Known that there is a Problem with Media Player 9 and Tmpgenc, and the Problem seems to have just cought up with you, I would sugest doing a system restore to before you installed it, I"m sure it will solve your Problem...
when converting certain fies Particularly xvid the conversion freezes at certain poins of the file but the sound continues. it happens at the same point every time
If it happens at the same point every time then that is because there is an error or corrupted Frame at that point of the Source File..You can try encodeing a New File a Few frames after were you get the error then Join the 2 files together with the "Merge & Cut"..You might try the FFDShow Filter and see if it can decode the XviD file and skip the error, But I doubt it...
Well then the File could be totally corrupted and there isn"t much you can do about it if it is.. you can Try Frameserveing the File to Tmpgenc, that sometimes Helps skip over certain Errors...sory but there isn"t much I can tell you...
The P3P Package.dll error is From not haveing all of the Tmpgenc files in the same Folder...All the Files that come with Tmpgenc have to be extracted to the same folder and not sitting on your desktop ....
Hi all i seem to have a problem when trying to convert the
above i start tmpg select dvd pal so ican create one file
then set it to encode so i can use dvd movie factory to create my movie
on dvd-r and it always gets to 97% then says streaming error
Hi. When I try to encode a DivX film, the program stops after 10 seconds. Every time. I've got a powerfull PC with lots of ram and space. Who can help me. Thanks a lot
I have a video capture card and use it kind of like a PVR. I want to convert the shows (captured at VCD quality) to a smaller size mpeg to watch on my Pocket PC. I have been playing around with the settings trying to find a good comprimise between quality and file size. I noticed that no matter what changes I made the 1 minute 16 second long test file keeps coming up as 12.8meg. I have changed height and width, frame rate, rate control mode and settings for it, and the audio settings. None of them made any differece. I went from 32x16, 12fps, 2pass vbr, with 32kHz joint stereo 64k bitrate audio, all the way up to 320x240, 29.97fps, autovbr, with 41kHz stereo 96k bitrate audio. Both were exactly 12.8 meg in file size. Any ideas on what I might be doing wrong here?
I have been using TMPGEnc now for some time on a very old AMD K6-2 400, with no problem at all.
I have recently been given a new laptop at work, p4 1.7 running xp, and now I cannot use tmpgenc, it either fails straight away with a write error to ntdll.dll, or it estimates the file size to be about twice the size it should be.
Help please.
I have the same problem, but i have not changed pc-hardware. I have used tmpgenc for long time and very well, but about one month ago when I try to use the "write error at module ntdll.dll" stops my work. I need for an help please !!!!
I have the same prob. Heres the message I get: "Write error occurred at address 77F51D24 of module 'ntdll.dll' with 00000000"........Has anyone got a clue as to whats wrong, or how to get around it? Thanx m8's.
Im new to the whole VCD thing and I have Nero. I've burned enough compilation VCD's and they work fine. The problem is I downloaded a larger file, split it into two parts with TMPG and when I tried to watch it the audio was off by a lot. I tried making a new audio file but really I just don't know what Im doing. Im trying to sync up the audio and video but never know if Im doing it right. Please Help.
The way I do it, also saves like hours in encoding is to use audiodub or virtualdub(no link soz, cant remember which til I get home) and extract sound as a wav file. Then when using tmpgenc, use the wav file as audio, perfect audio every time.
I dont know if this is relavent to your situation.. but I had a problem with audio/video synching when creating SVCD's with Nero..
I found out that Nero suffers from a bin/cue bug which can cause synchronization problems with audio/video. I only experience the problem if I create a menu when burning VCD/SVCD's.
No menu, no problem.
The answer? DONT USE NERO.
To my knowledge they have not addressed this issue.
Hope this helps.
What version of Nero are you using? The sync bug was fixed a long time ago.
If this problem doesn't exist when you play your SVCD on the PC, it is more likely to be your DVD player which is causing the problem not Nero. What model do you own?
There isn"t one I"m afraid, Well not one that is reliable, if there was we would have pointed it to everyone that says "What Happened To My Audio, Tmpgenc Sucks" but since there is No Such codec or filter you are Better off useing something Like "Headac3he" to encode your AC3 audio files to WAV or Mpeg audio , and use BBMpeg to Mux AC3 audio streams to Mpeg video streams, or supposedly the newest Mpeg2VCR supports AC3 audio now also..
TMPG doesn't need a codec for muxing Ac3 audio.
The codec is only needed for decoding the Ac3 stream. The best way is to extract the Ac3 to a wav first using something like AC3decode: http://www.digital-digest.com/dvd/downloads/ac3decode.html
I have successfully created a movie with Premier. Everything works great. I export w/ Cinepak codec to create an .avi file.. works great. I encode with TMPGenc, still, everything is fine. I create an SVCD with Nero 5.5 and the playback is great, (on the computer.)
The problem is when I play the SVCD with the DVD player. The sound quality and video quality is great. Everything looks great except the timing between audio and video is slightly off.
I have tried everything I can think of.. I have reworked from the initial .avi encode process on through..
What gives?
Anybody else ever suffer this?
PLEASE HELP.
I'm losing my sanity....
I finally figured out what the culprit is.. it has nothing to do with any of the encode process... It only occurs when I create an SVCD menu. NO menu, no audio/video synch problems.
Anyone know what the story is?
I'd like to be able to use the menu.
You can allways use a Program that does REAL Menu"s and even chapters and Titles like Retail DVD"s have...There are Lots of programs that can do this, like Most "Ulead" Software Programs Like DVD Workshop and DVD Movie Factory and Video studio 7..
