TMPGEnc Problems

[skreet]

Anyone here having issues with TMPGEnc - It encoded my video and it was done at liek 33% then it encoded 66% worth of black frames, anyone know of a better encoder?

I've used TMPGEnc a lot, and have never had problems with quality. You most certianly have some sort of conflict in your settings or maybe a driver issue. It's also possible that there is something incompatible about your source video.

i have also used ffmpegX (mac only), although i found it more difficult to use.

If you just want to encode to a small file size, try Dr. DivX. It's not that expensive and very easy to use with excellent results. I've been using it for more than a year now.

But i still think you are fine with TMPGEnc. There's a program called DVD2AVI that I use, which takes a ripped DVD and converts it into an audio and video file that are then converted by TMPGEnc into a DVD-burnable file (audio and video.TS or something) ... which you then burn onto DVD. Excellent results. But time consuming.

If you reply with your specific goals, I might be able to give you more tips.

I found the answer on another forum - if anyone wants to know the answer:

WM9 uses variable framerats and TMPGEnc reads them wrong. Enable Source Filtering and manually set the last frame, works like a charm
