Audio Of A Converted Mpeg file doesn't work.

[Hardeep_S]

I have red all of the formums here but i just can't get the audio of my converted Mpeg to work.

I have tried Ripping the wav then adding it to the mpeg file with no audio to make a mpeg file with audio. It still doesn't work. I uses TMPGEnc and Nandub.

Can Someone Please Help Me.

I have attached a picture of the original AVI file and its info in Nandub.

[Hardeep_S]

Here is the info of the AVI file IN Nandub.

[Hardeep_S]

I want to Convert it to SVCD or VCD. The AVI is widescreen and I need it to be widescreen on the SVCD or VCD even if it has the two black bars. What setting should i use In TMPGEnc to make it like that and also fix my audio problem.

[Hardeep_S]

Can u tell me in a easy and simple way. THis is my first time converting video files.

Thank You

[Hardeep_S]

I did what u said but before you encode it in TMPGEnc, when u go to settings, what do you put in for aspect ratio and source aspect ratio. And also what resoution should i put it too, and also bitrate and audio bitrate. I have it set to 1800 kb/s and 240 kb/s for audio.

The original AVI was 640x352, and i want it widescreen to the SVCD so it has the black bars.

I made a SVCD with Nero's encoding and they stretched the picture horixontally too much.

Please Help Me

Thank You

ANd also, for audio stream type in TMPGEnc, do i choose MPEG-1 Audio Layer II or Linear PCM. ANd shoudl i amek the sound to stereo.

And fo system stream type, should i choose Super VIdeo CD cause i want to make a SVCD but it is VBR.

Or should i choose Video CD and change the video stream stype to MPEG 1.

[Hardeep_S]

But how do i make a SVCD with widecreen resolution. THe standard is 480x480

[Hardeep_S]

It didn't work. The sound istn't still there.

I didn't use the TMPGEnc template

I just set the setting my self

Please Help ME

Thank You

[Hardeep_S]

Here is a pic of the info of the G spot info of the COnverted MPEG which has no sound.

[Hardeep_S]

It says it has audio but i don't hear it in WIdnows Media Player.

SHould i just burn it and play it on my DVD player. Will it work.

Please Help Me

Thank You

I need to make a VCD with a resolution of 640x352.

What do i need to do about the audio

[StarRide]

lol
I've heard using another wav in TMPGenc might cause a slight video/audio desync; i've never experienced this, but it is safer to multiplex the video and pcm audio in virtualdubmod.

get virtualdubmod.

open the avi file, a box will come up telling u the audio is vbr.

goto video menu, choose direct stream copy.

goto streams menu, choose stream list, rightclick on the audio stream, and choose full processing mode.

click ok and then press F7, save the avi file with another name, eg videowithpcm.avi

now u can open the new avi in TMPGEnc and audio can be processed.

As for the resolutions, u CANNOT make a vcd/svcd with 640x352, its not the vcd/svcd standard. Only advice here is to choose "full screen keep aspect ratio" in video arrange method in TMPGEnc.

As Setarip said, always use the templates when making vcd/svcd/dvd or else nero will have to do another conversion or your dvd player might be be able to play the vcd/svcd/dvd.

[Hardeep_S]

So what do it put in for the source aspect ratio.

My original avi is 640x352.

Do i put 1:1, 4:3, or 16:9?

And what about for the output aspect ratio?


Will the template automatically set it for me?

[Hardeep_S]

And do i have to drag and drop the file in TMPGEnc and do i need a seperate audio file?

[StarRide]

If u followed my method above, u should have a new avi file.
In TMPGEnc, during project wizard where u select source file, just drap and drop the NEW AVI FILE that u created using virtualdubmod. The non-vbr audio is already in the avi file itself.

As i mentioned already, set output aspect ratio to full screen keep aspect ratio.

But for source aspect ratio, this is tricky as your original res is 640x352.
I can't decide this for you, as:
1. I dont know if you want to make a vcd or svcd, or even dvd
2. I dont know if you want black borders or a stretched movie.

You will have to play around with it yourself, and you can see the results by double clicking on "clip frame" in advance tab of TMPGEnc. Just click on the Arrange setting button and you can see what the output will look like.

I've played around with TMPGEnc with a 640x352 source file, and you might want to check out:
If making a vcd, source aspect "16:9 Display", or with svcd, source aspect "16:9 525 line NTSC" will produce an aspect ratio kept video with black borders inserted.

Goodluck.

[Hardeep_S]

Thanks StarRide. The video looks fine right now as it is being converted in TMPGEnc.

I'll tell u if the audio works when i'm finished.

Thanks A lot

[Hardeep_S]

The audio Worked Thanks a lot starRide.

Now when you burn it with nero, if the Mpeg is 705 mb, does it matter or does it matter about the time of the video.

I can reduce the bitrate a little to make it smaller.

[StarRide]

Have you even tried starting to burn the 705 meg svcd file with an 80 min cd? Did nero complain about not enough space on cd?

Since it is 705 megs, try it and see what happens. If it does complain about not enough space on the CD, yes, lowering the bitrate by a little bit would be the best option.

[Hardeep_S]

Can u change the bitrate of the converted mpeg in VirtualModDub or do i have to sonvert the avi again with a lower bitrate.

And if you could, How?

[Hardeep_S]

Never mind, it fits.

Thanks for all our help. The other guy didn't give me good instructions.
If i need any further help, i'll just write it in this post again ok

Thank You

[Hardeep_S]

Good, your instructions didn't even work. U kept leading me in the wrong way.

I would like to thank "StarRide" Who actually "helped" me.

Thanks StarRide

[Hardeep_S]

How do i lower the bitrate of an encoded Mpeg.

Can i use Nandub or will i need to encode it again

[StarRide]

hmmmmmmmm i have to correct you saying about his instructions that doesn't work; his method was perfectly valid and works, its just that it might of been too complicated or for you to understand. Theres no need to start flaming at him, everyone is just trying to help here...

Anyways, you cannot really change the size of the mpeg by re-encoding the avi in nandub. In fact, initially, it is preferable that you encode the avi file with a very high bitrate or use a lossless codec or use frameserving to minimize the loss of quality between conversions.

If you are making a vcd, you cannot change the bitrate, as the standard for vcd is CBR 1150 kbits/sec, so for any type of clip with same length, you will produce a vcd mpeg of the same size.

If you are making a svcd, you can change the bitrate in TMPGEnc at the Video tab with the option "Rate control mode" and "Bitrate". I'd recommend doing a 2-pass VBR encoding, as this will give you a highest possible encode at a certain file size.

[Hardeep_S]

If i am using a regular CD-R i bought from the store. It is 80 min/700 MB and it FugiFilm.

Does it matter about the size of the file or the lenght of it.

Can i burn a SVCD in whcih the file is over 700 MB.

[Hardeep_S]

I have just encountered a significant problem about the audio.

The audio is significantly off from the video liek 2 - 3 seconds.

How do i fix it

[Hardeep_S]

The original avi is in sync
