Hi. New to the forums.

A while back, I encoded a whole series of anime to MPEG-2 and burned it to DVD using Afonic\'s guide http://www.dvd-guides.com/guides.php?category=othertodvd&name=tmpegenc

Never had any problems. Well, we all know how nice windows is... eventually I had to reformat. So I reformatted... just a part of life Smiley. Now, I am trying to encode some other DivX videos and all is not going to plan. First off, one video I have has a file size that is way too big. TMPGEnc seems to think that it is 377 minutes long when in reality its less than half that. Another video, TMPG says 314 minutes: again, incorrect. That\'s not all though.

The anime I was talking about earlier in the post? Well, TMPGEnc won\'t even recognize that as encodable video now. Any hints as to what might be wrong? Thanks for any and all posts including but not limited to any at all.

You might want to download some codec\'s  Like the DivX 5 and Xvid codec\'s..  You can download them from here, there are other codec as well.

You just need to compress the video with the right codec...

Let me know if this does the trick for you ok.

Nah, that didn\'t work. I also tried installing the XviD codec... didn\'t work either.

I found out that some videos only play audio in WMP... while some others are working fine. Dunno what\'s with it.

If your missing codec\'s then you will not see Video but will only hear audio..  You need codec\'s to see video and hear audio. Try downloading a different player and not use Media player..  What format is this file?

Maybe since you formated the drive you just need to update your windows, www.windowsupdate.com.  Like Dirext X and Media player to Media player 9, The player now should play MEG files...  Do you know what version your player is?

8... but I believe i\'m using 9\'s codecs. I\'ll try a the new version of WMP. I think I also have another player somewhere around floting in my directories... I\'ll see if i can dig it up.

EDIT: My mistake, I\'m not using 9\'s codecs. I\'ll try getting those.
Another EDIT: Downloaded WMP 9 and I can at least play all those others that weren\'t working right... but i still can\'t encode them right...  Sad

Hi!

First, wrong forum! Secondly in the Common TMPEGEnc problems post in this board you can find this:

Quote
If TMPGEnc says that the video time / runtime is way too long
TMPGEnc keeps encoding after the end of video with only a black screen
Try change the directshow reader priority, in TMPGEnc under Option->Environmental settings->VFAPI plug-in and right click on the DirectShow Multimedia File Reader and increase the priority to 2 or to the top of the plugin-list and reopen the video.
If that doesn\'t help try convert the audio to WAV audio before converting and use the wav as audio source.
And if all that didn\'t help you can always use the source range to select exact what to encode, under Settings->Advanced in TMPGEnc.

I <3 afonic   :wink:

Thank you also, ThreadMaster.

Sorry about being in the wrong forum... I wasn\'t quite sure which it would fit under because I thought it might be the DivX files that were messed up and not TMPGEnc.
