Question - TAW5 BBS - CUDA support wont go above 3% No.69059
Batmeat  2014-12-31 01:40:55 ( ID:8cbbdd93iaf )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I've been having problems since the first version of Author Works 5 was released. I've kept the version current will all subsequent releases. The problem is this. After enabling CUDA support, encoding will use my CPU=100% and CUDA=3.0%

Re-installing the software does nothing. I can't seem to figure out why my video card isn't being utilized. I've tried changing drivers with no luck. Any ideas?


Batmeat  2014-12-31 04:55:13 ( ID:8cbbdd93iaf )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I forgot to add that I've enabled the CUDA encoding with Mpeg1,2,4 setting. Doesn't do anything


Kuno  2015-03-23 02:46:19 ( ID:w8pbgv0jjgf )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

CUDA support has been removed from drivers since 340.52. If you want CUDA you need to use the older drivers.


Persen  2015-06-25 11:30:26 ( ID:6tr/46zxmom )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

False. They have reinstated CUDA in their drivers. It comes with 353.30



Question - TAW5 BBS - Mpeg output No.69042
Maxim  2014-12-30 21:25:41 ( ID:8ndjdte6vnn )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Hello
I would like to ask if there is an option just to encode the edited video without making DVD.I know is a authoring software but i need to encode into MPEG-2 a movie because i like this encoder.I also have video mastering works but not sure if the quality of the MPEG-2 will be same.Are they using same encoding engine?
Thanks


tkrave  2015-01-07 12:59:16 ( ID:resxbfmz4s2 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

No, there isn't an option to just encode as a regular MPEG-2 video. However, most video players can play the outputted DVD files without you having to burn it to DVD.

Quality of Video Mastering Works should be the same for MPEG-2, so you can just use that.


RonnieJP  2015-03-10 09:47:51 ( ID:aitjvxtmffr )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

You can use VOB2MPG (or VOB2MPG Pro) to extract from the VIDEO_TS folder you created to output a single MPG file. DVDVob2Mpg is another free program, but with less features. Both will create an MPG file from your VOB files without any encoding or effecting quality. They will extract a full DVD folder in less than a minute.

Hello everyone
I have a question
Which has a better Mpeg-2 encoding capabilities bewteen
Video Mastering Works and
DVD Authoring works

I have both but i want the best result.
Thank you

I seem to have read somewhere that VMW uses a better encoder than DAW, but I don't know for sure. I use VMW simply because I want it's other features such as filters and the different output formats. If I am creating a DVD, I use VMW to created DVD mpeg files and then use DAW to author the DVD using those files. If you want a better answer, I would ask TMPGenc Support. If you do that, let us know what they say.



Request - TVMW5 BBS - Increase the FLAC default compression setting No.68956
George  2014-12-26 06:44:46 ( ID:eziith4xip. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Currently TMPGEnc (Mastering Works/Smart Renderer) uses the "medium" compression setting for FLAC audio compression. It'd be best to either provide us an option to manually configure it or set the maximum compression setting as default (it's always lossless of course). No computer today has trouble to decode the lightweight FLAC compression.



Question - TVMW5 BBS - 29.97fps audio with 25fps image joining? No.68937
Persen  2014-12-23 05:24:18 ( ID:6tr/46zxmom )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

This is the situation: In the holidays i want to do some tests, with joining audio from some 29.97fps NTSC DVD's i have, with some 1080i 25fps HDTV recordings i am going to do.
But how do i approach this with TVMV5, so i don't end up with the audio getting out of sync, due to the difference in number of frames?


tkrave  2014-12-24 09:32:54 ( ID:resxbfmz4s2 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I don't think it will be a problem just replacing the audio in the clip settings.

If that doesn't work though, I would use timeline mode and put the audio in a separate layer; that way, it should only look at the duration of the audio/video and framerate shouldn't be an issue.

This is all just theory on my part though, since I haven't actually tried this.


Persen  2014-12-24 19:48:04 ( ID:6tr/46zxmom )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I have tried it once a long time ago, by just replacing audio, which did not work. The audio pretty quickly went out of sync because of the 4% speed difference there is between NTSC and PAL.
But i will try that timeline mode to see if something can be done there, to make it all fit together perfectly in sync.

Thanks for that tip.



Question - TVMW5 BBS - TMPGEnc only 50% CPU usage? No.68923
Asymetrikon  2014-12-21 08:35:26 ( ID:8xtpd5r.iwh )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Hi!

TMPGEnc does only use 50% of my CPU when encoding and i dont know the reason for it. I want to use 100% to speed up the encoding process. Maybe someone here can help me. :)

My Specs:

Mainboard: Asus Rampage III Extreme
CPU: Intel Core i7 Extreme 980x (6 physical\6 logical cores)
GPU: Nvidia Geforce GTX 660
RAM: 8 GB DDR3 1600 MHZ


George  2014-12-21 09:10:29 ( ID:4uslfllopul )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

What format are you encoding to? CPU usage can also depend on the video codec, not only Mastering Works.


Asymetrikon  2014-12-21 09:22:21 ( ID:8xtpd5r.iwh )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Ah ok didnt know that. Im fairly new to Video Encoding. :)
Im encoding Video Game Videos.

Im using this:

Video: Windows Media 9 (2Pass-VBR (Average/Highest Bitrate)) [1920x1080 / 29.97 FPS/9000kbps/Peak 10000kbps/Peak Buffer Window 5000ms]

Audio: Windows Media Audio 10 Proffesional(1Pass-VBR (constant Quality 98, 44khz, 2 Channel 24bit VBR]


George  2014-12-26 06:39:21 ( ID:eziith4xip. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I think the Windows Media codec is to "blame". Try the MPEG file output (AVC/x264) and you'll probably see increased CPU usage.


mathew lisett  2015-01-27 12:47:34 ( ID:emul5xj.btn )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

firstly welcome to encoding/editing.

there is a setting when you have the preferences but also whilst you render your project, right click on the window and select the 2nd from the highest as the foreground and background cpu work.

Now the user was correct in saying codec is a very good start, and windows media codec is just plain bad. if its for say youtube, look at dealign with mp4 x264 with something like @4.1 profile



Question - TVMW5 BBS - Analyze/FPS Greyed out No.68915
digitalfreaknyc  2014-12-16 14:21:00 ( ID:oi739vo9ncn )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I have a file that was originally 25fps. As it changed hands, someone re-encoded it to 29.97 but it's still sped up.
I'd like to alter the original specs for the file to set it at 25fps but both the FPS and "analyze" are greyed out. I know that, in the past, there was an option to manipulate both of those but now it's gone. Is it just this particular file? Should I be doing something different with it?
Please advise! :(



Request - TVMW5 BBS - Resume encoding at a later date No.68905
George  2014-12-12 04:58:19 ( ID:o5vrz/ceazn )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Since encoding can take many hours (especially with advanced filters and slow PC's) I'd love the option to pause an encode and resume even after a shutdown.


~ Chibu ~  2014-12-18 00:11:12 ( ID:pjzxbikhnrm )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I agree... the best upgrade to my motherboard & CPU that I can buy is $150-175, and I live on a fixed income. I recently purchase this software, and the need for this should have been incorporated into the product long time ago.

You have my support for a "Pause" button.


George  2014-12-18 08:15:26 ( ID:eziith4xip. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

It is currently possible to pause encoding. What I am asking to "save" encoding and resume it after a pc restart.


Thun77  2015-01-03 03:45:02 ( ID:tzkiqcq/bqj )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I think you can pause it and then hibernate until you want to resume



Request - TAW5 BBS - Using 100% of 2.6 GHz CPU when rendering BDs No.68892
KCTexan  2014-12-08 13:30:56 ( ID:g4v73fi44xo )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Hi. I have been creating Blu-Ray discs (BDs), with Authoring Works 5, for about 3 1/2 years now and the program is just irreplaceable, at least for me. My PC includes an AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 910 Processor, 2600 Mhz, Quad Core. Even at 2.6 GHz, the processor "pegs out" at 100% use during the entire rendering procedure and can take up to 9 hours to complete. I use AW5's stream format of MPEG-4 AVC. The source files are captured at 12 Mb/s, in TS mode. My minimum render speed is 13 Mb/s, but if higher speed renders will fit onto the rendered files, I'll bump that up to whatever I can fit (some sports as high as 24 Mb/s). My question is, would a higher speed CPU processor help? I see that Asus's processors can be upgraded to 5 GHz/s, although some say that, to get that speed, the whole motherboard needs to be replaced. My wish is that I could have a higher speed processor installed, which would result in the BD rendering using only part of the processor capacity; say, 75%, or even lower, if possible. Do you have any experience with these issues and can help me? Thanks a lot. Russell

George  2015-04-05 01:29:19 ( ID:gizj1inbaql )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

A faster, better CPU will always help. You can try to lower the task priority to make your PC run smoother while encoding. If you want to manually limit the CPU usage for Authoring Works only, I suggest you check you the excellent Process Lasso.



Question - TVMW5 BBS - Sharpen Filters No.68890
GDGerlach344  Home )  2014-12-06 00:13:55 ( ID:nzuhibusxt. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I have tried the sharpen filters but they seem to lighten (brightness) the image. Does anyone recommend any settings that will not cause the image to brighten?


tkrave  2014-12-06 05:13:54 ( ID:resxbfmz4s2 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I only see a brightness change when using the sharpness filter with higher values; use lower values if you are using that filter.

You can also try the smart sharp filter which I prefer.
There's also the contour filter which can sharpen some details.


GDGerlach344  2014-12-09 12:33:02 ( ID:nzuhibusxt. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Thanks for the info!


GDGerlach344  2015-01-11 14:31:01 ( ID:nzuhibusxt. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

I tried the smart sharp & contour filters using their default settings and did not see any sharpening effect occur. Do you have any settings you might recommend?


tkrave  2015-01-14 03:35:53 ( ID:resxbfmz4s2 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

You have to play around with the settings as the default settings may be too weak. The settings will depend on your video footage and your own preferences.


mathew lisett  2015-01-27 12:49:36 ( ID:emul5xj.btn )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

It seems even thought the exact same sharpener filters have been around since i think the very first version of xpress, im shocked they havent added different sharpener filters to the mix. At the moment all i see are filters that contour and thats it which as you have said only brighten up edges and there not that good.



Question - TAW5 BBS - Nero Burning ROM?? No.68885
Alpha1  2014-12-05 09:23:57 ( ID:plai4ldqlgf )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Can "Nero 2014 Burning Rom" software Be used to burn valid (playable Blu-Ray disk from the output of AW5? The burning tool that comes with AW5 leaves a bit to be desired...


tkrave  2014-12-05 11:21:10 ( ID:resxbfmz4s2 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

As long as you create an ISO, then yes, Nero should be able to burn it.


phylbert  2014-12-09 12:53:47 ( ID:ic9xaa6tab. )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Yes, TAW5 output can be burnt just fine using Nero. I prefer to do this, rather than burn directly from inside TAW5, because you can then get Nero to do things like verifying the burn against the original folders, or using multiple burnere to create several copies simultaneously.
I've had success creating a new (empty) BDMV project within Nero, then dragging the TAW5 output folders into it, and burning either to BD or an ISO file direct from Nero.
Nero also works just fine with BD ISOs created from DVDFab. Sometimes I'll use DVDFab to create an ISO from the TAW5 output folders, then use Nero to burn that to disc.



Question - TE40 - HEV1 or H.265 No.68826
Tom  2014-11-29 02:32:48 ( ID:w0heoc2iyxf )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

Will support be coming for HEV1 / H.265 in TMPGEnc 4.0 Xpress or will it require say an upgrade to the next version


tkrave  2014-12-05 11:18:22 ( ID:resxbfmz4s2 )   [ Delete / Reply with quotation ]

You will probably need to upgrade since they are no longer updating 4.0 XPress. I would wait until they actually announce support though.
