How to encode regular MPEG1 mpeg file to compress

[brumans]

Hey, Im having a bit of trouble.. im tring to encode a mpeg file, and i open the video file up in tmpgenc... and the only options I get is to encode a VCD, SVCD, or DVD.. there is not regular standard mpeg1 type of option.. Im tring to compress it for my personal use, and vcd, svcd, and dvd all have non-optionable ways of conversion.. so you cant change the frame rate, quality, etc.

I have also tried to open it in flask mpeg.. but still no options to encode a regular ol' mpeg file.. so please, if anyone knows what could be wrong, please reply with your input.

Thanks

Hello,

Before you start encoding, click on the "open" button in the bottom right-hand corner of the TMNPGEnc screen. Browse to the same directory where you installed TMPGEnc and load up a profile called "unlock" (it may be in a folder called "extra"). This will unlock the pre-defined profile settings, so you go into them and change/play around with the settings to your heart's content!

Cheers,

B.

Im having a little trouble figuring out how to load unlock.mcf as a template in tmpgenc.. I did find it though..

I'll look for it some more, but just in case I dont in time.. how would I load that file into tmpgenc?
