I'm trying to remove some logo's using DeLogo filter in Virtualdub MPEG2. I have a DVD in "VOB format" and i use the frame server funktion in Virtualdub MPEG2. I open the server file in TMPGEnc DVD Author 3 and follow the wizard.....

Now to the problem.

When I press Start output button, it says:

Unsupported file. (error code 0x80048003)"

Output preview is okay, subtitles and audio is appears and its running well.

Please help me how to make it works, thanks

I have a DVD I want to re-author. As far as video quality is concerned, am I better off using TMPGEnc Xpress to encode the original DVD's video content into an MPEG file and then use that MPEG file as the source for my re-authored DVD, or am I better off just using the original DVD's VOB files as my source files for the re-authored DVD? I was planning on using 2-pass VBR as my video encoding scheme in either case. Seems like the 2nd option would be best as it avoids another encoding step, but I'm not sure if there any differences between the encoding engines in TMPGEnc Xpress and DVD Author 3.

Comments? Thanks!

dear forum,

I ran into some troubles getting my first dvd done with author3.

The new one is :
read error occured at address whatever into module MovieDivxCodecLib.dll with blabla .

Does anyone have a solution ?
Cheers

I am using TMPEG DVD Authoring 3 and is there a way to delay the activate button for a few seconds after the title page has loaded??

What I have done is:
created a dvd title page that fades in and then the play movie and scene selection fonts fade in..I want to, AFTER the play movie and scene secletion, font has faded in to have the active frame around either of them to then press the play button

This is not possible and I don't believe it ever will be. So why do some commercial DVDs appear to be able to do this? Simple. Their transitions into and out of menus are video files. Usually, you can see when the video ends and the actual menu begins by a slight pause or the text will become sharper, but some DVDs hide it rather well such as the Lord of the Rings menus.

Unfortunately, DVD Author 3 (and Authoring Works 4) doesn't let you use video files to transition between menus. However, it is possible to use the first-play track as a way to transition into your menu when you first insert the DVD.

When i start up the programme, it verifys the license, then carrys on loading, then i get this message every time 'At address 000A1135, read error occurred against address 000A1135'

Ive tried to re install, but nothing changes.


Im on windows XP, service pack 3 too.

This has happened all of a sudden.

Any help would be good, thankyou.

I am using a custom menu, but for some reason the program will not allow me to "add a note page"

The option is grayed out. The help says that for custom menus, this option is always available.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

This is the only thing I can think of:

Go to the Global DVD/DivX menu settings. Click on the "Item display" tab. Make sure "Display Note page item" is checked.

If it is unchecked, you can't add a note page. This is the only way I've been able to gray out the option.

I saw a dvd made using this software and had to check it out. I read it converts avi to mpeg1 files in the about section but I can't figure out if I'd be able to take a dvd-rip file that's on my computer and use this to compress it to a smaller file that's not a dvd file....all of those ifo's, vob's, and bup's that I know nothing about and can't figure out how to back them up. My dvd burner isn't recognizing any disks so I have to reformat my computer but I have to backup the files I want online since I can't burn them and the only way I know how to backup the dvd files is by compressing them to 1 file and hope it'll be small enough to be able to upload it online for free. The movie I saw that was made using tmpgenc had part 1,2,and3 and all fit onto 1 dvd so I know that I will definately be buying this but I am wondering will I need something else to make avi or divx files out of the dvd files? Sorry I don't really know about all of this stuff that's why I'm asking for help or suggestions. Thank you so much.

You should be able to use the DivX Ultra output setting to turn your DVD file into a divx file. It'll be much smaller and you'll be able to play it on your computer or even turn it back into a DVD later, but the quality might drop a bit since converting the video so many times will slightly degrade the quality bit by bit.

I think that's the only non-DVD output option there is.

Oh, and this version of the software is discontinued. You'll have to buy TMPGEnc Authoring Works 4.
http://tmpgenc.pegasys-inc.com/en/product/taw4.html

Download the trial first and see if it'll do what you want it to do. The trial should let you output your DVD files as DivX so you can see if it's a good solution for you.

Hi I just got TD3D recently before i was still using 1.5 and I had created and saved a bunch of template files (.tme) but when I have 3 look for templates in that file it says non were found. Can you not import templates from previous versions?

I'm from Russia, so sorry for my english.
I recently reinstalled windows xp. Install the TMPGEnc DVD Author 3 with DivX Authoring again and tried to open a project that I saved before reinstalling. The program said that it was not her project! How to convince her that it was not right?? I definitely need to open it - it's too difficult to build it again!

What is the exact error message you are getting?

when I open *.tda3 file, it displays an error "This file is not a project file generated by TMPGEnc DVD Author 3 with DivX Authoring"
But this is a save of this program!!!! I just reinstall it!

The same is happening to me!

I was working on a big project (32 chapters, 140 min total runtime). It was epic and quality. It was practically finished, being the music for the menu the only thing remaining to finally do an output. Saved, closed the software.

The next morning, tried to open it, but I only got the message that reads "this is not a TMPGEnc...blah blah... project". Tried several times, but it just won't load.

All the settings in the project were ok, even I watched the whole project in the simulation screen and all the videos runned without a single problem...

Don't know what happens... Could it be because the size of the tda3 file (11MB)?

Please, help! Don't want to start again with this, cause it will take years to reach the same point!!!

C'mon, fuckers!! Please!

Hi there,

I have various clips.
I want the viewer to be able to start/view
- some of those clips directly after selecting (one of) them in the top menu
and
- the other clips after navigating to a subpage

starting clips from a subpage is easy.
how can I have clips start directly from the top menu ?

thanks,

tommer.

I don't think that's possible. You can have videos play directly from the top menu only if you choose the "Top menu only" option when you create your menu.

WHAT IS THIS
I WANA MAKE OUT PUT THE MY PROJECT ITS SHOW THIS ERROR THIS KINDS OF ERROR

My question is...

I have the full verison of TMPGEnc DVD Author 3 with DivX Authoring.. What i am trying to do is I taped something off of TV but im trying to edit out all of the commericals. When im editing it u can hear the audio when i hit play and such but after i am done editing and try to out put i get the message saying

"The "Track 1" Track does not include an audio conform to the DVD-video standard.

When authoring a NTSC DVD-video, each Track should at least contain one Dolby Digital or Linear PCM audio Stream. In the track settings change MPEG-1 Audio Layer II into Dolby Digital or Linear PCM to avoid this warning"

My Question is it is set on Dolby Digital and I am doing everything i do every time anyone know what might be causing this? Thanks any help is greatly appreciated...

Are you sure it's Dolby Digital in the track settings and not just the clip?

In the Track settings make sure Audio 1 is set to "Re-encode as below if necessary" and make sure Dolby Digital is selected.

L.S.

When I add (2) subtitles to a clip,
TMPGEnc automatically creates a subtitles/audio-page ('setup') with subtitle-selection menu-items and with an audio menu-item.

Can anyone please explain to me how I can delete the audio menu-item from that subtitles/audio-page?
( I don't want to bother the user with audio options, because there are no audio options )

thanks,

tommer

Try selecting the option to make separate subtitle and audio pages. Since you don't have a second audio stream, it shouldn't create an audio page.

My video files are of standard quality, mostly MOV files. I'm pretty sure I have the default video quality on my TMPG set to INSANE quality, but when I watch the resulting DVD the quality really sucks. Is there anything I can do to remedy this??

What are the specs of your source file? Resolution? Framerate?

What are your track settings for your DVD?

TMPGEnc DVD Author 3.
Created a DVD with eight movies/titles. When playing on a DVD player, one title doesn't start from the beginning, although the source is complete.
Please, help.

Duh! Noticed that cutting away the commercials, creates a Chapter. Deleted that and now it seems to work :-)

I'm getting a buzzing on my DVD's after I convert a DivX file to DVD. It's not the burner either because I've ran the converted file before I burn it and there is no audio but just buzzing. So far I only see this on .avi files.

I did just update my codecs and I don't know why that would screw things up, I didn't change anything, but obviously it did somehow. I just need to know how to fix it now. I think it has something to do with DirectShow or maybe AC3...now sure but it's certainly messed up!

Thanks in advance!

Problem solved. I just uninstalled the Klite codec pack and installed the latest DivX pack and it's fine now.

I have DVD author3 software. I am not able to paste the video that is cut from the current clip. How can I do it? Also, I am not able to use a different audio stream for a clip.

When you cut a scene from a clip, you are not copying that scene, you are actually saying that it's going to be deleted. There is no copy/paste scene function. If you want to take a certain scene and put it somewhere else, you'll have to use the clip split function to create a separate clip of your scenes. You can then rearrange your scenes in the Source stage.

If you want to use a different or additional audio stream for a clip, go to the Clip Properties and select a different audio source for Audio input 1. If you want to have two different audio streams, select "Multi-audio" for the Audio stream mode. You'll then be able to select two different audio sources.

Hallo , i have TMPGenc (3.1.2.176). I added to new project 7 files. I have edit them and saved project. Next I closed TMPGenc and opened the project. But there are not any files. Where is the problem? Size of td3 is cca 5MB.
Many thanks, Lubo

Do you mean that there's no clips or tracks in your saved project? Or that the changes aren't saved? Your source files will not be altered after you've cut-edited them. Any changes are transferred to your output file. The project file does not save the source files within it, it simply refers to the location of the source file on your computer.

I am trying to import subtitles for my video clips of the tv show boston legal. When I import the sub only 5 min of subs will import leaving the rest of the show without subs. need help.

thanks

Look at your subtitle file at the point where they stop working. Is there anything irregular such as odd characters or html?
When subtitles stop working at a certain point, that usually means there is something that TDA3 doesn't like.
