Hm.... have you tried Encoding at High Quality? :huh:

[the_jaguar]

with Xvid files ya may find that the normal TMPGEnc settings do a poor job encoding these high quality files. The solution simple

1) Open TMPGEnc and press Cancel if Wizard pops up
2) Go to Option->Environmental Setting...->VFAPI plug-in
3) Adjust the plug-in priorities (this is done by right clicking on
the plug-in and choosing Higher priority as many times as
necessary) to match the following:

DirectShow Multimedia File Reader.......3
AVI2(OpenDML) File Reader................1
AVI VFW compatibility Reader.............0
CyberLink MPEG-2 Decoder.................0
Microsoft MPEG-1 Decoder.................0
Wave File Reader..............................0
BMP/PPM/TGA/JPG File Reader...........-2
DVD2AVI Project File Reader 1.76+.....-2*
TMPGEnc Project File Reader 2.58......-2*

4) Press OK
5) Now you can load your XviD AVI into TMPGEnc just like any other
AVI and encode as you wish

Followed these directions but when I press start to encode I get a message saying "read error occurred at address 00402F40 of module &#39;TMPGEnc.exe&#39; with 20656850." and encoding will not begin <_<

Yea i get a lot of errors like that all the time...

I just keep trying until it works :S

the recent xvid are a pain in the ass with tmpeg &#33;&#33; :)
just convert it to divx,then use the divx with tmpeg and u should&#39;nt have any problem&#33;&#33;

[M|k0r]

Do i convert it to divx with that virtual dub program??

How do i do it?

Do i have to convert the audio inside it as well as the video??

Then do i use full processing mode or direct strem copy?

thx

[DARKSHADOW]

Yeah but use vdub-mp3-freeze&#33;&#33;
set audio on direct copy,but in the audio menu selst conversion and choose
sample rate 44000hz :)

video full process,then compression and chose ur divx highest version :)

U will then have 1 file duplicate the xvid except divx and fully comnpatible with tmpeg :)

[Crackedup]

Perhaps the developers didn&#39;t want the Xvid quality to be converted to crappy VCD ;)

[Crack_man]

You dont have to encode the movie to divx with Virtual Dub cuz it will take much time and you will lose quality of the picture.
Use instead this program called "AVI FourCC Code Changer" to change the codec to divx and it will take just some seconds with no quality lose.
AVI FourCC Code Changer (http://www.inmatrix.com/files/avic_download.shtml)´

The "AVI FourCC Code Changer" is also included in the K-Lite Codec Pack.

I couldent get TMPGEnc to encode for me so I let Nero do it for me :unsure:

But when I play the VCD on my DVD player the picture is upside down :(

Does anyone know why?

Is it a encoding problem or burning problem?

I don´t really know what you mean but the way I wrote in my previous post was to change the codec to DivX with the "AVI FourCC Code Changer" which makes the movie use the DivX codec,
and then the TMPGEnc accept it as a DivX so it will be as normal without encoding the movie again.
Saves time and quality.

[DARKSHADOW]

Sorry crack man
i was&#39;nt fully aware of the full functions of the 4cc changer as i&#39;ve never used it to my knowledge,the codec paack i use is pretty old but never give me any problems so i&#39;ve had no need to change or update&#33;&#33;

And when encodin or anyother problem i encounter, i always take the time and have a fiddle around until i find a way around the problem myself,it might not b the best way around &#33;&#33;but its better than constant postin for just answers and not learnin anything, hence my slightly assbackwards xvid solution early&#33;&#33; and advise anyone with the same problem, to use the 4cc changer method&#33;&#33; :)
