divx to vcd conversion with tmpgenc

[jan_hut]

I actually know how to do this. What puzzles me is that I used the source range option and set my endframe halfway the movie.
Yet for some reason the program is processing the complete file (the whole movie is 92 minutes, endframe is at about 45 minutes)....it's not really a problem since I have plenty of time to wait for it but just wondering if I'm not doing anything wrong here :) Is this normal???

well tempgenc for some reason TOTALLY ignored the setting. Quality is outstanding tho (did it on my old P2 350....hehehe), sound is a bit low volume but that's ok it is in synch. Now I would like to know if there is any fast way of cutting this movie in half.

Did you set the start frame?

I know I had a similar problem recently, but I can't remember if it was TMPGEnc or VDUB, but I set the end frame and it processed the whole file. When I looked back at it, I saw that the range wasn't selected so I set the start then the end, and it worked OK.

Just a thought.

yeah I did, startframe set to 0 endframe set to 67286 (while the whole movie would be until 135000 or something). Either it's a bug in tmpgenc, or I did something wrong...like pressing the cancel button instead of ok :) Well I"m happy with the result qualitywise anyway. Just looking for an easy way to cut it now tho. I'm not sure if there's a way without re-encoding.....I remember I saw a burning program that would actually do that for me...forgot which one that was tho.
