TMPGEnc: ES or MUX

[sjmaye]

I know this is probably simple, but I just can not find it. I normally use the Wizard. At the very end when I am about to process the file(s) it has a box that has the Save output file as. It is saving it as elementary streams. I go to uncheck the box so it will save as an mpg, but it is grayed out.

How can I set this as save as MPG?

Be sure that you are using mpeg1 layer2 audio and not wav/pcm audio because tmpgenc can't mux it.

Hi Baldrick,

So if I understand you, there is no "switch" to save as mux vs. elementary streams. It is a matter of what type of audio you have as an input?

[Baldrick]

If you use mpeg audio you can switch between mux and elemantary streams but not if you use wav audio. I think you set the audio in the first step in the wizard...

I knew it had to be simple. You were exactly right!

Thank you.
