Having a few problems already mentioned in this thread, but I couldn't see a resolution.

Basically I followed your guide and ended up with TMPGEnc creating 2 files the audio and video files. However the audio track is always silent. I have tried both MP3 and linear (wav) sound with no joy. Please help...

Bump, I'm having the same problem as Batch. No matter what I do, I keep getting the same problem. I've followed the guide word for word, but when I get the two files the video works fine but the audio is silent. And once you author it the VOBs are also silent, I'm not sure what the problem is or what I can do to fix it. Any help would be appreciated :-)

Hi there , having a dilema myself here.
I have about 12 AVI files (unsure if they are encoded as divx or xvid as there is no file summary attached, but they all play fine in media player and I have all codecs installed. I make a dvd in Nero vision express and when it attempts to create all the menu's it just crashes out, no message just disappears. any ideas? I have reinstalled ,downgraded, upgraded etc...no changes.
can anyone tell me also if I have 5 700 mb divx movies and want to create a dvdr that I can read on my home player, will I be able to create the dvd with all 5 movies on it, or will they need to be expanded so much that I cant, I dont yet understand this yet as i havent successfullky created any dvd yet.
thanks in advance.

I had a reply on another forum that sorted my sound problem out. I had a VBR (see below) problem. When I opened my DIVX in VirtualDubMOD it reported an error. I told it to fix the error and followed the VBR instructions below. I now have sound on my DVD :)

I a not sure if/how much his procedure effects quality though...
--------------------------
The audiostream is probably in either .AC3 format or Variable Bitrate MPEG Layer 3 (VBR .MP3). Load the .AVI file into VirtualDub (or any of its variants) or NanDub.


If it proves to be .AC3:

In TMPGEnc, under the "Environmental Settings" "VFAPI plugin" tab rightclick on the "Direct Show Multimedia Reader" and increase to one greater than the highest priority of listed items.. This will enable TMPGEnc to accept a properly encoded .AVI with .AC3 audio for input...


If it proves to be VBR:

Simply use VirtualDubMOD (Different than standard VirtualDub), to save the audio stream as an Uncompressed PCM (WAV) file as follows:
Using VirtualDubMOD to Convert "VBR" .MP3 to Uncompressed .WAV

1) Load the .AVI file into VirtualDubMOD (a different program than the standard VirtualDub)

2) From the "Video" dropdown menu, select "Direct Stream Copy"

3) From the "Streams" dropdown menu, select "Stream List" - and rightclick on the audio stream, then select "Full Processing Mode" - then click on "OK"

4) From the "File" dropdown menu, save the .AVI with a new filename

TMPGEnc DVD Author ( TDA )

In case of audio synchronization problem, we advise to re-encode the source file using an MPEG editor software.
Since version 2.520, TMPGEnc Plus include the same CRI MPEG decoder than TMPGEnc DVD Author and therefore sound problem will certainly occures too. To avoid this, disable the CRI decoder in the VFAPI plug-in and enable the MPEG-2 decoder from Cyberlink or Ligos used until 2.513.
Such decoders have to be isntalled on the computer to be used.

cf: audio sync trouble

I bought MPEG-2 decoder from Ahead software why wouldn't that work? I went to these sites and can not find where to download it... thay had a lot of other stuff there. Thanks

why not just use the Super DVD Creator 7.5 ? I have purchased a license only $29 .it works fine with my DV and all of my other format files. oh..need to install the FFDShow and othter codec listed in the website http://www.alldj.com
I am not a newer of the dvd authing ,but ,all most, I can't find a good free tools for build my dvd ,so at last ,I have to buy the Super DVD Creator .you just only add the files to the Super DVD Creator and set the output format as DVD or SVCD VCD ,and insert a blank disc and click the "Run" botton. it is so easy.

Hi Softimage. Is it really that easy and does it really write/convert to proper DVD format that can play in a normal DVD Player? What's the quality like when converting .avi/divx/xvid files? I've been thinking about getting a license, but don't want to waste my money if it doesn't really do the job. Your feedback would be appreciated :)

Thanks

Softimage : I purchased the license and tested it out. It did what I wanted but not in less than a few hours. That was just for converting from divx-VOB. After writing and playing on my DVD PLayer, the A-Grade movie on my PC came out as B/C-Grade Quality. For the BEST QUALITY you said you achieve, what settings do you use please?

Anyone : What's the BEST and FASTEST program for converting movie files to VOB please?
I'd like my movies on my PC that play in A-Grade Quality to convert into A-Grade VOB files so I can watch them on my DVD Player in A-Grade Quality.

Thanks

Hi Guys!
and girls
I just caught this thread and I have been using a little bit of software from Cucusoft which has just been upgraded to not only convert but burn to dvd as well. It will convert any AVI file and does all the complicated demuxing, mutltiplexing as well as keeping aspect ratios.

Yeah I tried the trial version of CUCUSOFT but it only did like 1-2 minutes worth which wasn't really enough to convince me to buy the FULL VERSION. If you have the FULL one, what is your opinion on it please?

Thanks in adv :)

fantazar : I installed the FFDShow codec and wmv codec for converting Divx and Xvid and Wmv , the vendor of super dvd creator suggest me to install more codec to support more type of files.
how did you set your creator ? I get the good quality picture when I use the Divx and xvid codec .

Okay, I've now tried the trial version of AARE CONVERTER and it seems quite good. It has features to sharpen the coverted file, etc. Problem I got though was that at the end of converting, it gave me an error.
Something like "File name could not be changed".
And it doesn't save a thing. How's someone supposed to purchase the FULL version when the trial doesn't work properly?

Hello there.

I am looking for a little advice. I just got my DVD burner, and I'm looking to put some TV series episodes on DVD. I have them in DivX (AVI) format and am currently trying out the trial version of TMPGEnc Plus 2.5 and TMPGEnc Authoring 1.6.

I read the SimpleGuides and those were a pretty good start, but I wanted to know where I should look to save a little space to get maybe 1 or 2 extra episodes on the disc. Taking mostly the defaults, it looks like I'll only be able to fit three episodes per dics. I was wondering if you had some advice for getting maybe four or five episodes on there? Where can/should I make some changes to get a little better compression? Thanks.

- Kevin

hey
im following afterdawn's guide to convert xvid to dvd using tmpegenc. however i let it run overnight with screensavers and all that turned off. in the morning my pc is restarted and it says windows has recovered from a serious error. btw im using win xp pro with 1gb ram, plenty of hd space, and a amd xp2800+ processor. any reason why this could be happening. i do have all the codecs installed (from wht i understand that is). thanks.

PHew!
Okay, I went back to Super DVD Converter and tried 1:1 ratio.
Converted okay and quality was good-v.good, but after around 1/2 hour watching, the video paused while the sound continued playing. Once the video started up again, the sound didn't match the Video. I was gutted! It never recovered after this so I killed the whole project. Think I'm going to have to continue viewing on the PC.

Hi!

I've read about people having problem with TMPGEnc hangs when converting Xvid to DVD/SVCD/VCD.
Now my problem is similar to what others have wrote but not exactly the same. This is the problem:

When I try to convert Xvid to DVD (also tried SVCD/VCD)
TMPGEnc hangs as soon as the encoding starts. It shows 1 frame in the preview and then goes black and the program hangs. I don't get it!!

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance!

/Christina
