MP@ML = DVD no video (frame rate=0)

[young707]

I received the m2v file encoded using TMPGenc.
But in TMPGenc, the Profile & Level was set to Main Profile & High Level) instead of MP@ML.
After I authored and play the DVD file, there is no video. The frame rate is 0 instead of 29.97.
Is there anything I can do to turn on the video at the IFO or VOB files?
Thank you.

Well, when we received the m2v file, we verified and checked it did played in Microsoft Windows Media player ver 8. So we accepted and paid the contractor.

But after we authored the DVD to mux the m2v video with ac3 audio, PowerDVD shows no video.

We found out the contractor used TMPGEnc to encode at 29.9 frame rate. But we did not specified and they used High Profile @ High Level instead of MP@ML.

Saddly we have to encode with MP@ML again. What a costly lesson.

Thanks for your help.

Encoding HP@HL isn't for DVD-Production. I don't know any Player which is able to Play such Videos (may be HD-ones). If the contractor used this Profile without beeing told to use that, he made a mistake!
Get back you Money or tell him to encode it again - und this time the right way.
