Hello,

Ashy & Minion still around?

I ripped with smart ripper
used DVD2AVI to create my .d2v ( I don't import all the vob files into DVD2AVI at once cause it would take to long, I just do 1st vob 1 day, the rest the next day)
used TMPEGencoder to encode.
1st encoded d2v file was fine
2nd encoded had audio/video desynchronization

Is there a way to fix the sync?

How do you mean it takes to long? How long It should only take a matter of minutes to create a d2v from a full DVD even on a relatively slow machine.

Your method is not a good way to do it anyway. If want to speed things up then don't rip the audio too. Disable the audio output in DVD2AVI by selecting 'NONE' for the track and the d2v will be created much quicker.
You can then use VOB2AUDIO to rip the audio from the DVD when you want the sound.

Ashy,

Thanks for the workflow tip. I'll give it a shot.

Regarding the the audio lag. Do I DeMux and then remove any padding or something?

Confused

I have 6 video clip want to group into 1 dvd,
the video clip are in rmvb format and converted to mpeg2 by using winavi converter....the clip are perfectly converted.

But when I use TDA to convert the 6 mpeg into the DVD, I found that the video and audio are not in sync and have great different..

i have already tried to use 44k and 48k as the sampling rate....but the result still the same......

Is that the bug of TDA? anyone face this before?

Sometimes when I compress MPEG movies, the converted movie is not complete. In a 25 minute movie, 2 or 3 minutes are left out. Here are my settings:
MPEG-1, 352x240 (source MPEG movie is larger), 29.97fps, CBR 500kbps, Audio Layer2, 44100hz, 96kbps

Any ideas or suggestions would be great. Do I have to update to the licensed encoder to get full movie conversion?

> CBR 500kbps, Audio Layer2, 44100hz, 96kbps

Are you serious? Maybe a Softwareplayer is able to handle this correctly, most DVD-Players won't. And the quality... argl...

Christ, it must look awful. Standard VCD resolution is bad enough, but that must be almost unwatchable.

Try setting the start and end points of the movie in the 'source range' function in 'advanced' settings.

Is there a way to use TMPGEnc 3.0 Xpress to convert .tivo files to DVD format?

no. not possible with current version.

I am trying to convert avi to m2v file... but i just get a black screen but the audio is converted fine...

Just a series of checks..
What about the VFAPI plugin order (Option__Environmental Settings__VFAPI Plug-in)? Which priority order do you have?
And if you try to look at the output by doing 'Settings__Advenced___Source Range' (or Clip Frame)?
Does this heappen even if you try to encode that AVI into a MPEG-1 movie (VCD)?

I'm trying to conver avi file to mpeg file. audio is fine but there is no video.

Why is it when I open a VOB file that plays just fine, it
has DTS audio, that the audio is unrecognised?

If DTS is unsupported, why not at least give that error

try to reencode de dts to ac3 ( 5.1 ) cause tmpgenc does not support dts

All of a sudden, my tmpge (free version), does not convert any of my avi files.
I have been using this version of Tmpge for over six months. All I get is a black screen in the preview.
I have download every codec I can get and still nothing.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

So how can it be a bug if it's only started happening after 6 months?
Please post appropiately in future.

I'm trying to convert many avi files to mpeg but it takes a long time. I see there is a feature that says batch convert and Add to batch. How do I use them? And will it convert all the files I select from avi to mpeg?
Thanks!

I wonder how to use these CalcuMatic and CQMatic program, to calculate my video bitrate and determine the CQ value, could anyone tell me?

I purchased TMPGEnc about six months ago. A recent hard drive crash has deprived me of my serial number.

Can I get it sent to me with proof of purchase?

Thanks

I used Xpress 3.0 to copy the source of a pal dvd to my hdd. It's at 25 fps. I've encoded it to ntsc 3 times, once on CBR twice on VBR, but after about 2/3 of the way through it gets stuck on one frame for the rest of the movie. The sorce doesn't have this glitch, so I'm lossed.
