TMPGEnc saying my movie is much longer than it is...fix?

Hey guys,
I'm trying to get this XviD on a DVD; when I watch it in wmp its 1h28m long, and its a 715mb file, but when I load it into TMPGEnc it says its 269 minutes long, and if I preview it its 1h28m of movie and then 3 hours of the very last frame of the credits. Is there any way I can rectify this?

 

Maybe it's the audio encoding (MP3 ABR instead MP3 CBR) which made TMPGenc go crazy.
Make this test:
1) Open the AVI with VirtualDubMod
2) Set Video___Direct Stream Copy (you'll keep the same video)
3) Do Stream____Steram List___Disable, and click OK (you've disabled the sound of the movie)

Save it (F7) with a different name (e.g. movie_mute.AVI).
Then open the new AVI.
TMPGenc will, of course, have the 'audio input:' box empty, insted of an 'audio input:' equal to the 'video input:' box.
Does TMPGenc again give such 'length' problems?

If not, you'll just need to extract the sound as an uncompressed WAV file from the AVI movie, ot you'll lose A/V sync.

The simplest way I know is:

1) Open the AVI wit VirtualDub (not -Mod)
2) Set Audio___Full processing mode
3) do File___Save WAV.
That WAV file (movie_audio.WAV), if it has been uncompressed, will be 10.1 MB x length (in minutes) large, that is about 1.3 GB (if that AVI had AC3 sound (but VirtualDubMod would have listed it as AC3, when you made Stream___Stream List) VirtualDub will call it 'WAV' anyway, but will be smaller, 300 or 400 MB depending on the surround channels it has).
After you converted to M2V the 'mute' AVI you made with TMPGenc, you'll use the uncompressed WAV you just extraced when you author the DVD video with your favorite application.

Does it work?

 

Gah, I figured it out immediately after posting. I had just reinstalled TMPGEnc and I forgot to raise the priority of directshow. Worked like a dream after that. I'm such a newb.
