    use merge and cut in TMpenc..wokrs perfectly..y are u not able to do it..??pl explain...you have to double click on file .are u doing this...after u do..add file..then u use the sliders to fit about 80 mins on one cd and bal on another.and yes,,if movie time is above 80 mins u have to use 2 cds..
    and since u are burnin as vcd u can chk on vcd player u dont need DVD playa..or chk DAT file in media play..

    hey Dela, \
    got a funny new problem with TMp ..all this while it was fine..was converting video..avi file.file size 694 Mb..duration 1.22 hrs ..G spot showed ..all fine-video codec-Div3 .576*320..audio codec.mp3..it siad file rendered sucessf...no errors..
    but when i ran it thru Tmp..file size beacme 1.6 Gb (which happens normally) but funnlily length also doubled to 2.44 hrs which means after the film -there was a blank screen for 1.22 hrs...but most importantly..THERE WAS NO AUDIO for entire film..else would have used merge and cut ..
    did it twice with same results..
    Any idea?

    Go to TMPGEnc and click setting. Click the advanced tab and select source range. Double click source range and when it comes up click move to start frame and click set start frame, click move to end frame and click set end frame!!

    Also, you can try decompressing the audio before converting and that may solve the sound issue!

    Nic it means removing the compression and making it an uncompressed stream! its done easy with virtualdub

    1. open the file in virtualdub
    2. click video - direct stream copy
    3. click audio - full processing mode
    4. click file - save avi

    the avi saved will have uncompressed audio!

    Sherry, hmmmm, so nero doesnt support the drive at all now thats a problem! Well you can try VCDEasy but I think you might get the same result!

    Hey everybody....just a simple suggestion here. I had lots and lots of trouble converting and burning my first few movies. I tried everything imaginable. When converting with TMPgenc, I noticed that the movies came out choppy. Like they are going frame by frame...not streaming. Tried converting with Nero and movies came out beautiful. I hve done this succesfully with mpeg's divx's and xvid's. Simply use the wizard choose vcd and hit burn. The program will convert the movie before it burns automatically. Note... you will have to split the file before using Nero.
    A program that you can download from tucows called avi-mpeg splitter works really well... Good luck all
