Audio dropout after TMPGEnc encode

Postby Studio Hooghly » Wed Oct 09, 2002 9:14 am

I followed ErMaC's instructions almost to the letter when encoding my newest video, although I skipped the whole inverse telecine step because Otakon, my home con, prefers submissions in 29.97 fps. When everything was said, done and rendered, I ended up with the audio cutting out for a split second towards the end of the video. Does anyone know why this happened, and more importantly, how I can make it stop? Admittedly, I used an MP3 for the audio source. Would a WAV directly off the CD improve matters?

Also-- and I may be hallucinating here-- but it sounds to me like the whole thing runs a fraction faster than it did originally, as if the song and entire video were sped up by a tiny amount. The time display on Windows Media Player does not back me up on this, however. Can anyone explain this?

Help is much appreciated.

TMPGEnc does not always work too well with mp3s, it is alot better to use wav files cause it causes no problems at all when compressing.

Yeah, that was how I ultimately fixed it. The WAV sounds better, too. Thanks, belatedly.
