    I have the trail version of TMPGEnc Author 1.6. After copying the files onto a DVD, on playback on any of my DVD players, the pictures freezes for less then a second on Scene (Chapter) changes. I have all the files (46) in one Title. Is there a way to have the completed video play without any pauses?
    I WILL purchase this software, if I can find a solution to this.
    Thanks
    Mike

    You say "I have all the files (46) in one Title" so you have 46 diff. vid's in one title ?

    And i'm betting you left the chapter points at the point where it changes from one vid file to the next.

    TDA automatically inserts a chapter point where 2 diff. vids are joined.
    If you delete those chapter points and move them just one frame either forward or backwards it should stop doing this.

    Thanks for the quick reply. What I do is I click on the "add Files" button and add all the MPEGS files from downloaded from my Sony Camara that was created using the "Picture Package" software. I didn't do any editing for all I wanted to do in this case is put all 4 mini CD's on one large one. Then I clicked the next button in the program sequence and created the "Menu", then continued to "Output". After 20 min or so I had the program burn the DVD.
    If you can, can you be a little more specific with what I have to do? I'm really new at this but appreciate your patients and help. Also, If I only create chapter points at the beginning and the end of the video, (which is what I think you are saying but really don't know how to do this) will I still have "Chapters" to advance thru?
    Thanks again
    Mike

    I won't work!!!
    TMPG DVD author does NOT properly join MPEG2/VOB files together.
    With some DVD players there will be a slight pauze/break at the point where the clips were joined.
    I discussed this serveral times before:
    https://forum.videohelp.com/viewtopic.php?t=288420
    https://forum.videohelp.com/viewtopic.php?t=258137
    https://forum.videohelp.com/viewtopic.php?p=1330516#1330516

    The solution is to edit/join the clips first with another good MPEG2 editor.
    Most I use TMPGEnc MPEG Editor for that stuff but MPEG2VCR and MPEG2SCHNITT (free!) also worked fine for me.

    Okay,
    When you add several files to one track in TDA, it automatically inserts a chapter point where the two files are joined.



    If you select the second file & go to "Chapter Cut Edit" you will see the chapter point at the very start of the second file where it connects to the first file.


    Delete this chapter point and add it at the next frame or where ever yuo want to & now when you play it back there should be no pause between the first vid/file & the second one.

    No true, at least in my experience. The solution offered by Noahtuck works (at least for me). For this pause goes away if move by one frame (forward or backwards) or delete the first chapter point for the second, third, etc. clip added to a given track.

    Well I know for sure that moving the chapter point one frame (forwards or backwards) works. I think deleting the frame works too but I need to verify that.

    Hmmm.. that's funny, because i have done this many many many many times from VOB's, Mpeg files & VRO's from DVD-RAM & it has always eliminated the slight pause where they are joined

    Thanks again to all that responded....now one more thing...remember I am new at this....lol
    How do I delete the chapter point and start a new one? Is it just move the chapter point over one frame on the second file, then click on the "Set as Start Frame" button, or "Add current frame to Chapter" button, or something else...
    Thanks to all...
    Mike
