Hi staff,
I'm using TMPGEnc DVD Author 4. I create DivX Ultra NTSC from a Xvid video file (800Kbps, ~350Mb). When encoding (output) it show only ~23 minutes done, faster than TMPGEnc Xpress 4 (more than 1 hours) :>
I try many options in TMPGEnc Xpress 4 but it can't compare with best speed TMPGEnc DVD Author 4's encoder. Anh the quality of both is same!
I'm using DivX 7 Pro and lastest Xvid codec.
One ~23 minutes and one more than 1 hours.
Can you explain for me! Thanks!

I'm guessing it's Authoring Works 4's smart rendering engine, which doesn't re-encode video unless it has to. Didn't realize it could be applied to Xvid video, but perhaps as long as it's compatible with DivX players, it can utilize smart rendering when output as DivX? In the Source stage, do you see the smart rendering icon in the clip list (a blue "SR" that appears on the clip thumbnail)?

Do you have any plans to support OpenCL instead of just CUDA? Even NVIDIA will be supporting OpenCL. Nvidia product never work correctly with my video editing setup but I would really love to have OpenCL support for accelerated encoding with my ATI products.

こんにちは。韓国のメガスタディ（株）のリュイン国です。
現在、お客様のTMPGEnc 4.0 XpressをTEST中です
Panasonic HPX - 150カメラPanasonic 16GB SD CARDで撮影して、MTSファイルをWMV9でエンコードして、使用しています。
SD CARDには、4GB（26分06秒）ずつのクリップが生成され、TMPGEnc 4.0で複数のクリップを1つに合わせて1つのファイルに抽出します。
しかし、この過程で、自動的に作成されたクリップの接続部分が映像と音声の両方5fps〜10fpsが抜けて見えるという問題が発生しました。
もしかしたら、カメラからSD CARDに保存処理に問題があるし、複数のMTSのクリップをP2 DVCPRO HD（MXF）に変換して、Avidからの確認の結果
テキストには、異常なしが発見されました。
TMPGEnc 4.0 Xpressエンコーダに問題があるのでないことを確認お願い致します。ありがとうございました。

Try the Japanese bbs. You'll probably get a better response there.

Hello. Korean mega-study (shares) of Ryuin country.
Currently, customers in TMPGEnc 4.0 Xpress is a TEST
Panasonic HPX - 150 camera to shoot with Panasonic 16GB SD CARD, MTS files encoded in WMV9 and are using.
SD CARD to, 4GB (26 minutes 06 seconds) is generated for each clip, TMPGEnc 4.0 multiple clips one by one according to the extract in one single file.
However, in this process, both the audio and visual portions of the clip was created automatically connect 5fps ~ 10fps was a problem that seems missing.
Maybe there is a problem from the camera to SD CARD to save processing, multiple clips MTS P2 DVCPRO HD (MXF) to convert, Avid confirmation from the results
The text, no abnormalities were found.
TMPGEnc 4.0 Xpress thank you confirm that there is not a problem with the encoder. Thank you.

my reply:

so what your saying is that when you transferred the data from the sd card, some data seems to be wrong


ので、何を言っしたときには、sdカードからのデータが転送され、いくつかのデータが間違っているようだ

yes, I believe you can!

Hello. I was wondering if anyone might know the trick to burning content onto dual layer DVDs in TMPGEnc4? I've burned a lot of single layer DVDs without any problems but if I try burning to a DL DVD then nothing usable is produced, yet I don't receive any errors and everything appears to process correctly. The discs won't play in any of my DVD players, including my PC, and produces a 'NO DISC' message in the displays. When I check Writer settings under Post-output process it recognizes the media and states 'This media disc is writable'. Plus, I know I have the hardware capability to burn playable dual layer discs because I can burn them using ImgBurn. Any help or input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

HI,
I have burned DL with no problems with this program. My question is what media type are you trying to burn to. Verbatim's DL's are the best and I have no coasters with them. I just recently burned a DL Verbatim 2.4x and it works perfectly.

I haven't tried Memmorex, TDK, Playo yet, but will try them also.

What firmware/type of burner do you have. You mentioned that you can burn DL's with imgburn, so it may be the settings. Make sure that the speed matches the media.

These are just ideas so maybe someone else may have other ideas..

I have shot some footage on a Canon HF10. The footage was recorded as progressive 25 fps. When I import into TMPGenc 4.0 Xpress it sets the display mode to interlaced. I have 240 shots! do I have to really press edit on each shot and change the settings to progressive manually? Are there no batch ways to set this????

Please Help!!

Many thanks

I would guess that TMPGENC would be smart enough not to try and deinterlace a progressive video. Try a test video with the setting on interlaced and see if the output is progressive or not.

go straight to the output format and just ensure its progressive

A simple question, why there isn't native MKV support in TMPGEnc Authoring Works 4?

do you mean output or import?

I meant import. Sorry.

well i never have an issue with importing at all and i do it with quite a lot of mkv stuff

I am surprised that MovieStyle doesn't support functionality that you can find in free programs, for example in Handbrake.

I tested the trial version of MovieStyle and converted a DVD for my iPod Touch. The conversion process worked smoothly; however, I was surprised that MovieStyle doesn't support chapter information, i.e., you can't skip from chapter to chapter on the iPod Touch. Handbrake on the other hand (which is free) is almost as easy to use with its device profiles and supports chapters.

So the only advantage of MovieStyle would be the support of the SpursEngine, but that doesn't make up for the loss of the chapter functionality I get with Handbrake.

I have some standard definition DV-AVI files. I want to encode to MP4 files with LPCM or Dolby Digital audio, and then burn to a Blu-Ray disc 25gb.

The "Blu-Ray Standard MPEG" output seems to only output MPEG-2 files. So I tried selecting "MPEG-4 AVC file output", but this only supports AAC audio, which Blu-Ray discs don't support.

So how do I encode MPEG-4 AAC video and Dolby Digital audio, that is compliant with Blu-Ray standard?

Hello.

TMPGEAW4 can import MKV files, because I have done it before in another system, not in mine. I have all the codecs and my system can play the file.

I can't import it in the latest version, I get an error 0x80048003.

But that same file is fine in a friend's pc, it imports fine. I have the same codecs. The only difference is this is Win7 and my friend has XP.

But as I said, I can play that file in Windows Media Player and in VideoLan.

Any help?

BTW: Karma opens the file perfectly fine, why TMPGEAW4 can't?

Wilfredo

I have to add that ConvertXtoDVD loads fine also the same file. I just don't want to use ConvertXtoDVD, I want to use TMPGEAW4.

Thanks.

Never mind, I just needed to set ffdshow to be used in mkv files, now it is imported fine.

I want to use mkv but I dont have ffdshow, where can I download this.

http://www.codecguide.com/

great codec pack.

Thanks

I download and install the ffdshow pack but I dont know what to do to use mkv in TMPGEnc Authoring Works 4.

just import it.

can someone tell me exactly how they were able to fix this MKV import problem? i have the latest codecs and all, since i did a system re-install i can no longer import mkv files...when i was using it before i did not have this problem..

what error comes up, how does the software reacts etc.

we need details

1.Install K lite codec pack
2.Run Win7DSFilterTweaker (Start>All Programs>K lite codec packs>Tools)
3.Look 32 bit decoder side.Check H.264 and ffdshow below then apply

Good luck

Just want to say I fixed the problem on mine by using Norm De Codes clear and concise instructions. Thanks Norm.

Will TMPG convert tivo files?

tivo files are mpeg extension, so yes.

Dear friends,

For a while my Authoring 4 works great, but suddenly ( i mst have changed something i can't remeber ), it stops working. When i fire up the program and select "Start a new project", i get the message "Can not find the class (0x8004800B)".. does anybody knows whay this means, or where i gone wrong? I like the program very much, my wife to...... and it's either this or explain to here how AfterXF work....... please guys, you cant do that to me :S

In advance, Frie1960

hi, how come CUDA isnt supported even in the latest version? CUDA support is enabled in X press, why not Authoring Works?

im baffled on this myself as surely the encoding process in dvd making would be greatly improved with the added support.

as i have found myself that cuda with xpress custs a good 20-40 misn from encoding.

As I understand it, CUDA support in 4.0 XPress is mainly for filter processing (deinterlacing, sharpen, color correction, etc.), not encoding.
Since Authoring Works 4 doesn't have the filter functions that 4.0 XPress has, the developers would have to start from scratch and utilize CUDA for MPEG encoding to make it worthwhile.

I'm not sure if that's really the reason, but it could be a possible reason.

you are actually correct in this matter and its because im suffering with a cold that i totally forgot about reading cuda facts with tmpgenc.

it is the reason work doesn't deal with cuda because cuda is most effective with filters especially if you are using the video noise and multiple video adjustments.
