  1. I am trying to use TMPGENC 2.5 to encode some 20-22 minute files, and it opens and reads and even encodes the files fine. Its just that it reads the 20minute file as being 77 minutes long, and as such encodes for triple the size. I don't know what could be causing TMPGENC to think that my anime file is 70-something minutes long, its always worked before and now its acting weird.
    I've tried reinstalling, but other then that I dont know what to even try, and nothing is coming up when I search.

    All help is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Dain

    At a wild guess, that sounds like maybe MP3 VBR or AC3 audio, both of which could cause that. Drop the original into Gspot 2.52 and see what it says. And please add a little more information as requested.

  4. thegeeman, the link you gave me helped me out perfectly. Basically, when I tried to convert from avi to mpg TMPGENC was reading the file as having a way longer runtime than it actually did. I insterted the files into VDUBMOD and saved the .wav and it was fixed. It was something wrong with the vbr audio.

    Thanks for the help guys!

    No problem.

    99 times out of 100 VBR seems to be the reason:- well with me anyway.

    Thanks for posting back; may help someone else in a similar situation.
