I have downloaded unleashed, its xvid, 23 fps, MP3 audio. I select PAL dvd encoding option in the app, go through all the usual and yet tmpgenc recognises it as 291 minutes and 180 percent of the DVD-R capacity.... when its only an hour and a half in reality. Its done this with another movie before... whats the problem this is driving me nuts.
Tmpgenc is just reading the length wrong. Get the real length of it, and use tmpgenc's start and end points to end the encoding at the proper time.
TMPGenc could also be mis-reading the audio data... sometimes if the audio is at an odd frequency (22kHz,33.6kHz etc), then it will misread it... Put the .avi in Virtual dub, change the audio to full processing, and 'Save WAVE' under the 'file' menu. then drag the new audio into TMPGenc. Should fix it.
