  1. Hi.

    I’m trying to encode a .d2v file to MPEG using TMPGEnc, but I am having a problem. With progress indicator bar is working, the time past/remaining is working, but the frame rate isn’t moving and the picture isn’t changing. Is this bad? Is it just encoding two hours worth of black with no sound? What’s going on? Is this a glitch; is it something I could have done? (I followed that Newbie’s Guide to Getting a Movie on one CD to a T, and right now I am getting ready to go to the second part of that guide, as soon as the video finishes encoding).

    I really don’t want to be wasting my time, here. This takes long enough to do once, and I don’t want to have to do it again.

  2. It sounds too me that you're encoding it with the 2-pass VBR, which does take longer, but comes out better. It does something like scan the movie first to calculate the most bits of the film with the most motion so that it can up the birate in those bits. On the other hand I could be completely wrong but thats what it sounds like to me.

  3. 2 pass vbr and cq_vbr has no diff quality when the file size came out the exact same of 787mb one night on a hardcore pc test.
