Frameserving from TMPGEnc

[DivXExpert]

How do you do it?

[banjazzer]

A little more information about what you are intending to do would be helpful. eg frameserving what to what, and why?

[Cornucopia]

You don't frameserve FROM TMPGEnc, you frameserve TO it.

Usually, you can use Vdub, DVD2AVI, AVISynth, or other VFAPI frameserving proggies.

The only thing TMPGEnc "frameserves" to is audio--LAME, TooLAME, and SSRC-type stuff. And that's really a external pipe with temp results being returned for final encoding and/or muxing.

You can frameserve to it, or from it (by creating a project file .tpr). Although not strictly frameserving.

[Cornucopia]

tpr project files are good for re-encoding of projects, or for use in batch encoding, but AFAIK they don't frameserve to anything.

[banjazzer]

While strictly not frameserving (as I already pointed out) TMPG can be used as an intermediary step in passing parameters in an encoding job. Sometimes this is referred to as frameserving.

However, unless and until the original poster shows enough interest to get back and explain exactly what s/he is intending, we are arguing about semantics.

Procedure:

1. Do what you need to do in Tmpgenc (e.g., IVTC, clip frame, choose correct output ratio aspect, etc.)
2. Save Project in Tmpgenc (file saved as *.tpr)
3. Open *.tpr with VFAPIConv and convert to *.avi.
4. Open *.avi with VirtualDub (for more filtering) or CCE (for encoding)
