TMPGEnc & DVDx 2 : Is 2 pass VBR possible?

[michelos]

I am trying to use DVDx 2.0 and TMPGEnc v.2.5 using the premiere plugging encoder with multi pass.

When I try to compress a small part of the move, the 2 pass completes without problems and the produced mpeg file is correct.

When I try to encode all the movie, the DVDx crashes at the beginning of the second pass (I checked the log file of the TMPGEnc).

What am I doing wrong?

I am using the AVIWrapper option and not the Connect to AVISynth.

This is because when TMPGEnc tries to read the IPCserver.avs, it respond that this file is not supported.

I tried to disable the direct show filters (I read this tip at some help sites) but it didn’t make any difference.

Can someone guide me on this?

thanks!

Well, I did it.

I discovered a document that mentions about a DVDx bug. All I had to do is to "cut" some frames, from the end of the movie….
