TMPGEnc and Mpeg2 Encoding past the 30 days

[AznRyda]

I really like TMPGEnc, but I always end up using it past the 30 day limit. I try to reinstall it, but the set date that it stops working is still there. Is there a way I can get around this? If there were a full version, I would pay for it. I really just like using this program and I want to prolong it's usage. I have heard that you could change the date or something when installing the program so that it wouldn't expire until that day ie "July 29th 2099", but when I do it, it doesn't work. Anyone know of any ways?

I though the program was freeware!

there is a post showing you how to hack the registry to extend this "30 day" limitation.

I tried it, but it didn't work for me so I did the next best thing: getting the beta12 or beta12a version. The beta12 and 12a do not have time limitation on MPEG2 encoding.

it is, but that function has a time limit for some reason.

Tuan, do you know where this post is? is it fairly new or old? can I search for it in these forums?

nm, I got it. thanks for the help!

I hope I got the latest version. I downloaded a few days ago....

Several weeks ago, a message was posted that also offered a way to reset the date without messing with the Registry. It was a tiny program to execute when the date needed reset. It was available from xiaodu@hongkong.com. Send him an EMail and ask for the TMPGEnc Mpeg2 date resetter.

The 30 day limit can be reset by deleting the following registry key:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{63902277-B101-4049-8B46-C24B67E155E5}

How to do this very easy:
Make a file "TMPGEnc_MPEG2_Reset.reg" with the following content:

REGEDIT4
; Enables TMPGEnc's MPEG-2 encoder for 30 more days.
[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{63902277-B101-4049-8B46-C24B67E155E5}]

Double click this file to reset the 30 day limit.

thank you

Don't get the latest version, go for 12 beta (no letters), it's just as fast and just as good and no 30 day cut-off.

Sorry I can't remember the download link (it was some spanish site). I found it through a google search.
