problem with tmpgenc later than 2.53

[Teasy30]

when i use tmpgenc later than version 2.53 for cutting a svcd file, i get the problem in vcdeasy, that the created images get much bigger than the original mpg file ...

e.g. mpg file with 685 mb results in a bin-file of 783 mb ... during the creation of the image file, i get the following message:

"autopadding requires to insert additional 94608660 zero bytes into MPEG stream (due to 342785 unaligned packets of 342786 total)"

the same file cutted with tmpgenc 2.52 works fine (same cut-points)

There are some issues with tmpgenc's own multiplexing and lately also with other matters. Tmpgenc is an excellent encoder but it is in a constant
state of flux while the authors finalise tmpgenc plus. If you find
a version that works best for you, stick to it. IMHO there is no quality
improvements since 2.55 so I'm sticking with that untill plus 3.0
is released.

Other than that you can also encode audio/video seperately and
remux them with the excellent BBmpeg.

Know problem,

When you are editing (merge & cut, multiplexing) a MPEG file in MPEG Tools of TMPEG, you must indicate the type of MPEG..(MPEG1 VideocCD or MPEG2 SuperVideo-CD for VCD and SVCD respect). VCDEasy will work fine.

Sorry by my english

I think "yvantv" is pointing in the right direction for the problem. In a quick test, I had autopadding occur when I had the System Stream Setting set to MPEG-2 Program (VBR) but not when it was set to Super VideoCD (VBR). I have not done any other testing to see what might be happening with the VCD / MPEG-1 settings.
