Hi, I am using the TMPGEnc programs (encoder, author, etc.) and both things need a .m2v file and .wav file as the video and audio files added separately. The problem is I can't remember how I took my .avi files, and split them into these video and audio files. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I have looked a little more into this and I saw posts saying they used TMPGEnc to create these two files. However, I have both the mpeg converter and the dvd author and both require these two files as input, so I think I may be missing a step.
Also, it just came to my mind, maybe something is wrong with the files I am trying to burn on the dvd. I am getting an unsupported message when try to input my movie files into TMPGEnc. Is there a codec that would fix the problem, or is it a problem that cannot be fixed?

Sorry to keep posting like this, but I tried other videos on my computer and some worked, some didnt. These files have a .AVI at the end, but for some reason dont work with TMPGEnc.
I used avicodec to evaluate the file, but dont really understand what it says. It displays:
File : 182 MB (182 MB), duration: 0:22:51, type: AVI, 1 audio stream(s), quality: 51 %
Video : 161 MB, 988 Kbps, 23.976 fps, 640*480 (4:3), XviD = XviD MPEG-4, Unsupported
Audio : 20 MB, 127 Kbps, 44100 Hz, 2 channels, 0x55 = MPEG Layer-3, Supported
So my question is are there any codecs out there that will make this type of file work with TMPGEnc, or would installing a codec do nothing, in which case, are there patches or anything for TMPGEnc to make it work.
In short, is there any way to make this video supported by TMPGEnc?

I'm not sure if I understand properly and I have never used the programs you name, so keep that in mind. Is the priority of Directshow raised? This can cause an unsupported message as can not having the proper codec installed, which appears to be the case with your video codec according to Avicodec. I have always used the Kazaa-lite codec pack (std) and have never had a problem opening any file (2 years). It also contains GSpot which will tell you what codecs you need but as I said, I have never needed any. As for wav files, TMPGEnc is terrible at encoding audio, so I always entered a wav as the audio but never created it within TMPGEnc. I didn't know that this could be done, I just knew the audio and video could be separated after encoding to mpg.

Thanks for the help, but I got it to work. I just needed a XviD codec thing. The problem is now I just burned a "test" copy and the audio is off, and gets worse and worse as the video progresses. Is this just a bad cd? Or the fact I had other programs running at the same time? Or is it a more serious problem?
Also, using TMPGEnc I can decide how much % of the cd I want each video to take up. However, if I go low enough the video resolution goes from 720x460 to 325x460. However, I do have the option of changing it back to 720x460 at this %. My question is which would be best, keeping it at 325 or manually changing it back to 720.
And, misty when you are talking about your way of doing audio encoding, do you think that might take away the audio "lag"?
Thanks.

It sounds as if you're encoding VCD/SVCD and I have never made one, so I can't comment on that. But, I would doubt it's a bad CD; I would try not running any other programs. You must have very powerful computer or else lowered the priority order because I have one and TMPGEnc used to bring it to its knees. My problem with the TMPGEnc encoded audio was that there was none or it was out of sync with the video. Entering a wav as the audio solved this 90% of the time.

Well, I found a solution. When you go through the steps of the encoder, on the last step it gives you the name of the of the .mv2 and .wav files. Right below this is a checkbox, which asks if you would like to encode the video and audio separately. Once I checked this box, and brought them together in the TMPGEnc author (it does this automatically, just select the video part) and I burned it again, and the audio was perfect. Thanks for all your help guys.
