Hi !

Using TE4XP in MPEG2-CBR mode.

CBR Bitrates of 8000 kbps and more result in a non-DVD-playable first GOP !

First Found Sequence Header shows the first parameter "Bitrate" as 20000 !

This exceeds DVD specs and so this bug leads to a frozen first GOP !

Bitrate viewers regularly show an bitrate excess within the first GOP.

Bug is visible when played back as m2v.files
by DVD-conform software players like PowerDVD,

visible when played back as authored DVD,

not visible when played back by open MPEG2 Players likes MediaPlayerClassic.

I have an avi file with 720 x 404 and is 16:9 aspect ratio.
I want to encode it to a DVD to watch on a 16:9 TV.

What should I set the source aspect ratio, video arrange method, output resolution and aspect ratio?

My first attempt was to ignore the source aspect ratio (it doesn't seem to have any effect on the output), set the video arrange method to center (default), set the output resolution to 720 x 480, output aspect to 16:9.

This works ok. The resulting DVD when play, will expand to fill the screen automatically. However, whenever there are subtitle/text on the screen I notice they have re-sampling blur. How can I avoid this blur?

hello everyone

I have a question regarding cropping and encoding interlaced video. I am capturing interlaced signal from a Hi8 camcorder and obviously there's some junk on all sides. I crop it and optionally resize (for fullscreen). the question is, how does it affect interlace (1) and MPEG encoder (2). AFAU, there are several scenarios. lets outline a couple:

1. the image is cropped and then upscaled to full DVD resolution. this is simple for horisontal scale, but non-obvious for vertical, since several lines have to be added. I don't understand how vertical upscale works with interlaced video. either pairs of fields are duplicated every now and then, which is not the best upscale algorithm, or the image is deinterlaced, upscaled, and then interlaced again, which kinda misses the point of interlace. what does TmpgEnc do when I choose crop+fullscreen ?
1. back bands are created around the image. encoder will waste bandwidth encoding them and there will be artefacts near the edges. this is the scenario for crop+center AFAIU.

I would be extemely helpful if someone answers these two questions and possibly recommends what interlace/crop/scale options of TmpgEnc I should use to make DVDs out of my Hi8 recordings.

thanks very much in advance.

is there anyway to enhance audio file (wave)such as enhancing sound (voices) that are low or faint?

Does any one know how to get in contact with (Ashy)?

Does any one how to get in contact with (Ashy)?

Ashy spent the night at my place.

We were shagging for hours. She had orgasum after orgasum and was still begging for more 5 hours later.

Sorry pal, but after that session there is no way that Ashy will go back to you anymore.

Just accept it.

is it safe to assume that the product and forums are dead?

The product is not dead, but these forums are old. If you have support questions or bug reports, you should send them via their official support page:

I've been working with TMPGEnc for the past 6 years and I've never experienced any serious problems with it...however, I've encountered a very rare unusual problem. I use dvd2avi for my movie files and then I transfer them to the TMPGEnc encoder and they work fine, but I have one in particular to where the video runs faster than the audio. I guess what I'm trying to ask is: how do I get the video to slow down in the encoder to match the audio?? I've tried going to the audio gap correct and adjusting that and it doesn't do any good and if I DO get it to run right, it'll make the audio sound like donald duck so I need to slow the video file down, but I don't know how....Please help me out if you can...Thanks alot!!

I am trying to convert a widescreen .avi file to an mp2 to burn it onto a dvd. everytime i try doing this the picture is chopped in half. one half is correct and the other is small. i tried to mess with the options and can't figure it out.
i'm new to this and just can't figure it out. is it even possible?

I suppose you set the flag to 16:9

Hello, I try to convert a number of films with TMPGEnc 4 Express into AVI(divx)-format. to reach quality as high as possible I want to use for it the multi-pass procedure of DivX. If I adjust DivX under output format, thus the included Encoder, it works. However I licenced and would like also the "real" DivX, newest version, to make use of the extended attitudes of this version. The multi-pass procedure to use over here one must naturally encode the same film twice. Unfortunately the batch Encoder does not permit that, because the "second" file has the same name as first. If I do remind right, that was with TMPGEnc Express 3 no problem, and it should be none here, so can I somehow turn it off? Greeting Heinz Juergen

TMPGEnc 2.5 is working mighty fine, but after converting a movie from AVI to MPEG a splash of rainbow-colors appear at some scenes along the bottom of the picture, taking up almost half the frame. What causes this, and what can I do?

Thanks
Confused

I have an mpeg2 video that receives the error message "can not open, or unsupported."

The file has a resolution of 352x480, aspect ration of 4:3, 29.97 fps and with no audio.

I do not understand why this file is not supported. I tried the original mpg which still had the audio and it doesnt work either.

I had the same issue, I resolved it by uninstalling ffdshow, divx, AC3 (and all other codecs on system). After, I re-installed ffdshow 20020617, divx 5.21, and AC3ACM v1.31. I then set the environmetal settting, VFAPI directshow to 2 (higher than others). Works fine again.
