Rudeboy2025 Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 Any suggestions? I've been using TMPGEnc but now that I covert it there is no sound in the converted version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apcmiller Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 virtual dub works well and is fairly fast but cant convert wmv or asfUltra video converter will convert anything and is only slightly slower, and I happen to know that google is your friend for finding the key to success with that one.Have Fun!(p.s. dont install the new mega codec pack, when they moved the filters they screwed up the converting abilities of vdub) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nsane Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 what type of MPEG are you wanting to use exactly, and for what purpose (DVD, SVCD, etc.)? :Pi personally just use DVD2SVCD with CCE 2.67 for my SVCD conversions (it can do alot more than DVDs and SVCDs too) ;)btw, just so yall know, DivX, XviD, etc. are all considered MPEG-4 streams. the only reason they use the AVI extension is because they use different stream headers. but other than that, it's still very similar to regular MPEG streams, minus all the compression enhancements ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudeboy2025 Posted October 23, 2005 Author Share Posted October 23, 2005 Well trying to convert movies and make a VCD. I tried Cucusoft today and I did get sound but the sound came way later than the video. Any suggestions on how to fix that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nsane Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 is it a divx/xvid movie with mp3 audio? if so, that's why, cause not all programs are fully compatible with ALL of the divx features (such as mp3 audio). so you'll need to open it in VirtualDubMod, go to the stream list, demux the mp3 stream, disable it, and do a direct stream copy for the video (so you should have basicly split the aduio and video into 2 files). now convert the mp3 to WAV with besweet w/ belight (use a pregain), open the new audio stripped video in regular virtualdub, go to audio > wav audio, and select the WAV you made with besweet. now make sure both audio and video are set to direct stream copy, and save your new avi...which should be fixed of any syncing problems (i have to do the samething for dvd2svcd) :Pany ways, i'd recomend using the SVCD (MPEG-2) format, because they usually return ALOT better quality compared to a regular VCD (MPEG-1). scene groups usually only use VCD for VHSRips and CAMs ;)oh, and thanx for reminding me i was writing a DVD/SVCD guide...kinda been on the back burner for a few months now ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudeboy2025 Posted October 23, 2005 Author Share Posted October 23, 2005 Uhh, I didn't understand all of that but I'll try to do what you posted. :P One question though, will my DVD player be able to play SVCD? Because I really don't know the difference between VCD and SVCD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nsane Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 i wouldn't be able to tell you, the only real way to know for sure is to test it :Pand like i said, i'm writing a guide for encoding DVDs and SVCDs, so that should clear up alot of things for you ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudeboy2025 Posted November 1, 2005 Author Share Posted November 1, 2005 kind of a dumb question but what about a file that you download which is already MPG. Do you need to convert that to make a VCD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nsane Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 is it a VCD or SVCD stream? you can tell by opening it in media player classic and looking at teh file properties...either way, load it up in vcdeasy and create which ever image format is needed (i think it'll auto-detect what kind of image to create) ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudeboy2025 Posted November 2, 2005 Author Share Posted November 2, 2005 Doesn't say that just says Video: MPEG1 Video 352x240 (107:80) 29.97fps 1700KbpsVideo: äS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudeboy2025 Posted November 3, 2005 Author Share Posted November 3, 2005 So I'm guessing that I can make a VCD without having to convert it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nsane Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 yeah, just use vcdeasy from above to create the bin & cue files to burn with nero :dance2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudeboy2025 Posted November 4, 2005 Author Share Posted November 4, 2005 Wait, why do I need to create bin & cue files? I have no idea what they are anyway. I've always just converted the files into MPG version and then used the Make VCD Option in Nero and burned it. Works fine like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nsane Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 someone correct me if i'm wrong, but i don't think that supports MODE2 burning (ie. 800MB on a 700MB CDR) :dance2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudeboy2025 Posted November 5, 2005 Author Share Posted November 5, 2005 Sorry for being noobish but I'm confused.Can you put in simple terms for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nsane Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 MODE2 burning allows you to burn 800MB of data on a 700MB CDR by using the space normally reserved for normal CD error protection. because MPEG-1 & 2 include internal methods for dealing with read errors and there's really no reason to use it :unsure:how big is the file you downloaded 700MB or 800MB, if it's 800MB does nero burn it sucessfully?

Rudeboy2025 Posted November 5, 2005 Author Share Posted November 5, 2005 I guess I should have specified that it was a couple of files and each were less than a 100mb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nsane Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 you should just be able to put em all in the add list and nero should add the proper track locations for it to play the seperate files normally. so you shouldn't have to worry about putting them in 1 big file :unsure:just go to...Nero > Nero Express > Video > VideoCD...and add the files one by one and burn it :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
