How to Frameserve to MPEG encoder.

[YnoT]

Hi guys,

How do i frame serve to MPEG encoder?

All I want is to add permenant subtitle to AVI.

I follow the guide of Truman,

https://www.videohelp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=87065#3

until he ask me to "frameserve to your favorite mpeg encoder".

I have NO idea what to do.

ANybody could help me? Thank you very very much

Try searching, there is a guide by the exact name "how to frameserve"

Here's a couple of guides:

With VirtualDub it's easy.

Had a quick look and it seems that there are multiple guies there. Which scenario are you following? I would suggest AVISynth myself. Just load the avs as your source instead of your avi.

Look closely at the word "frameserve" in that guide.

Notice how it's red in colour ?

Notice that when you click on it, it links to the guide skeg64 suggested !

I C. that means the next step i have to do from virtualDub is to save frameserve into vdr file. and THEN open TMPEG as my mpeg encoder to encode the vdr file. am i right?

but then i need to split audio from video, isn't it another step. WOW! that is a pain!

btw, how long does it takes?

for celtic_druid, how do you use AVIsynth anyway. there is no application to click after i install it.

yes.

yes, but not from the MPEG. split the audio from the AVI out of virtualdub, by choosing File>Save WAV. Then encode to AC3 with ffmpegGUI. Do not encode the audio in TMPGenc, choose the "ES - Video Only" option. TMPGEnc can only encode to MP2 audio, which is only standard on PAL dvds. AC3 (or the uncompressed PCM) is a better choice as it is more compatible.

btw, how long does it takes?

there are too many variables that affect this to give you an estimate. Expect to leave it overnight.

it is a command-line app. Head over to Doom9.net if you want to learn it, but personally I just stick with virtualdub.

any single step to convert it?

I rip DVD with DVDdecrypter in File mode. and what is the best tools to convert AVI XVID with permanent subtitle in ONE step.
And what is the best configure for XVID?
