    redw0lf, get the program gspot and it'll find the codecs required for the audio!!

    nik99, do that ;)

    saviour, do the following, first click option - environmental settings and click the vfapi plug-in tab. Directshow FileReader will be in the list so right click it and raise its priority to 2!

    on the main tmpgenc screen click setting and click the advanced tab. tick the box beside source range and double click it to open a new dialog box. click "move to start frame" and click set start frame, click move to end frame and click set end frame and click ok. Now try and encode!

    I don't know about other O/S's, but XP allows you to rename the .dat to .mpg and it plays as an mpeg.. I guess it don't matter so much if it plays, but do the headers match a true .mpg file..

    I stand corrected.. but I'm still right!

    ;-)

    This is a first time for me using this program, trying to convert an avi file to be able to copy to a cd-r. I opened "TMPGEnc" but did not get the wizard or see any place where it said vcd, even by choosing file.
    In the video & audio source, I browsed to find where the avi movie was that I wanted to change but it told me that my file could not be opened and was not supported.
    What am I doing wrong????

    Thanks for the info.
    I found if I uninstalled the version of TMPGEnc and re-installed the newest version it worked and I found the wizard.
    I was interested in sending OlieBear a message, he mentioned a better site for downloading good movies and such but the address he gave is not correct.

    I am trying to convert a movie from a download off Kazaa. Its an avi to be able to burn to cdr but when I open TMPGEnc and find the movie in the browse button, it says that it is unsupported.
    When I tried to view the movie first in RealPlayer I could not see a picture but could hear it,it said I had to reinstall the Divx. I downloaded the updated version but still can only hear the movie. Is there a way of saving this movie??

    vcd, i have xp pro. I can rename dat to mpg and it does no good for me. The riff headers are there so its not recognised as a full mpeg so cdxa2mpeg does the trick! it brings it back to mpg (nope not with vcd/svcd headers, just either mpeg-1 or mpeg-2).

    nik99, unfortunately those black bars are the video stream therefore changing them is almost impossibleand if you tried methods to do so all you would see is a really ugly dtretch with terrible video quality. It's not worth it!!

    elmos, Get gspot and check do you have all the appropriate codecs!

    nik99, Divx usually actually has low volume. Do you have your volume control up high yes??

    Also, VCDEasy would only capture the mpeg from the disk, i dont recall saying it would change it beyond that!

    Well I'm not sure about the audio. And those black borders are part of the video stream now so they would be hell to change. I'd really doubt it will work but try clicking setting - advanced and tick the box beside clip frame and then double click, click frame! I'd really doubt you could do anything from there but just see if you can anyway!

    Try click setting and click the audio tab. You will see an option to change volume there.

    I wouldnt know much about the volume but i'd imagine that if you set it to 200% or something, you'd double the volume!!

    thanks mate.sound ok now..at 200%.think we shd just ignore the normalize button..
    but original problem still there..black borders..
    tried the encoding with clip frame..new problem..removed pixels fm all 4 sides..so picture doesnt stretch..
    visual qlty wasnt affected..but guess what..sound went out of sync.
    in fact as much as 10 secs..before video..
    now how does this happen and how to sort it??

    oh god, lol, now please do remember me saying that you could try clip frame, i never said it would work cause i idnt know and in fact I told you it would be hell removing those bar bars!

    As for the audio going out of sync, is this audio in the .avi file or has it previously been extracted or anything?

    I downloaded one Divx file form the net and its in AVI format. I used TMPGEnc to make an MPG file out of it but exactly at 31% it gives this error "Write error occured at address 004872C2A of module 'TMPGENC.EXE' with 0078E000."

    I dont know what to do please help me out.

    (am posting the results to my experimentation..so others in forum as well as you, cud hear wat happnd..so answers cud come come out fm anyone who knows..since i am shore others also hates those black borders and wanna do away with them..)

    as for the audio prob,it is part of the same avi file and not seperately extracted.question is can it be related to what i did with clip frame..?(or audio and video issues cant be connected) and what shd i do?
    cause org file .avi still plays fine with media player..
