I want to convert large avi files to Mpeg1, with highest possible quality, for playing in my DVD player. I don't want a VCD or SVCD, simply Mpeg1 files, and size is not important.
If I use the Project Wizard, I'm limited to 352x288(PAL) low resolution files for VCD.
I'm quite lost among so many parameters in encoding and converting. Can someone tell me what parameters are important for better quality, and how should I set them?
I hate to sound dumb! But, I have downloaded the TMPGEnc 2.54 Freeware version ... WHERE Do I download the TMPGEnc Plus 2.5 version ... so I can do MPEG2 also???
hi tmpeg folks. i am trying to encode (with 2.5 free) a file asf in avi.
the format is composed by
audio: Windows Media Audio 9.1
48 kbps, 44 kHz, stereo (A/V) 1-pass CBR
video: Windows Media Video 9.
the video is converted in divx well but the audio is non existent. do i need a plug in or is it the format not compatible?
the file is 560 MB and i tried to convert in mpegI but it stopped when reached 500 MB converted. is the size a problem?
another question: why is it that the options for mp3 audio offer sample rate up to 24000hz only?
We have been using free tmpeg and today upgraded to xpress4. Why did batching get neutered? You used to be able to set a template, choose files and go. Now you have to set up each file by hand/register and then process all auto. Why did batch change so drasticlly?
I had the usual problem with VBR audio, that the VCDs I burned using Nero were out of sync, with the audio way behind the video. So I read around and found the "extract audio into .wav" solution, and then used TMPGEnc to put them back together. The problem is, a file for which the video & audio are 40:41 comes out as 40:43, and the audio is now IN FRONT of the video.
I used TMEG plus 2.5 to convert my AVI files. It seem to me that the color of the video pixelate like streaming of color. I don't know how to attach picture to this web. I tried to fix this so many times but it didn't work. The AVI file seem to be smoother with color.
Ok, here's the deal... Ill give an example to start out. I used to be able to encode a fairly high-quality DivX file (with 2.5) that would be about 2 hours, and it would take only about 2.5 hours total (converting to mpeg2 for dvd). Now I go to do it today with a few videos, and a 2-hour vid is taking about 4 hours. Any reason why this could be? I have no extra processes running, have used the exact same settings (even tried encoding at lower quality, but still slow), and I haven't changed any hardware or anything. I'm stumped! My guess is that I might need to defrag since I have been doing so much downloading, transfers, encoding, etc lately. I'll give that a shot, but does anyone have any other ideas why?
I am getting impatient! After many attempts to encode 110 minutes mpg VBR from a 22GB AVI huffyuv, I conclude that TMPEG is just not suited for the job. I've used this freeware program for years but the bugs are starting to annoy me. I know TMPEG can't join files without bugging them, but now it seems, it also can't encode files without bugging them.
I get several error messages when I open the encoded mpeg1 file in VirtualDub. Anachronistic timestamps indicates improper joining. But I haven't "joined" the file at all... Audio & Video was encoded in "one go" with VirtualDub frameserving.
I want an error free encoding, so I can be sure the file will play one any DVD hardware player.
Could you please direct me to another freeware program?
I used tmpeg to convert an avi file to an mpeg file, everything works fine, except the audio cuts out at the last minute, wouldn't be a problem but it cuts out what someone is saying :( does tmpeg automatically fade out the volume or something? if so, how do i change it?
