Split Mpeg Files

[Dexoknott]

Hi!

Is there anyone that knows how to (Easy) split mpeg files in to independent files that can be watched on there own ?

I'm not an expert at this but I think to get the best results you need to demux and mux again with bbMPEG. You can get the programs you need at Doom's download page (http://www.doom9.org/software.htm).

And a hint from Doom's site: Click on that page, press Ctrl-F (or Alt-F in Netscape) and enter the name of the program you're looking for

These are the programs I use and they work great

bbTools 1.9
bbMPEG 1.24b18

Inside of bbTools is a small file called bbdmux. I create two bat files in notepad called video demux.bat and audio demux.bat.

Put the line below in notepad and rename the extension to bat. Rename your movie to video.mpg.
bbdmux video.mpg 0xe0 video.m2v

Put the line below in notepad and rename the extension to bat.
bbdmux video.mpg 0xc0 audio.m2a

Put the bat files, the program bbdmux and the video.mpg file in the same folder. Double-click video demux.bat and wait for it to create a file called video.m2v. Than double-click audio.bat and wait for it to create a file called audio.m2a.

Use bbMPEG to create the new video at whatever length you want. If you are using windows XP make sure you follow the first sentence. Multiplexing with bbMPEG (http://www.doom9.org/mpg/bbmpeg.htm)

Okay this is not the easiest method but you will get the best results this way.

use TMPGenc.

tmpeg is easier:

Start tmpeg
file>mpeg tools
demultiplexor tab
load the file
double click on the sound or video that you want
save the sound/video file

Is this want you wanted to know, because I'm not really sure what an "mpeg split into seperate files so that you can watch them on their own" means.

BBmpeg is free...yes, but its very complicated and tmpeg does the same thing faster and better.. I'm nto sure what "problems" you've had...but you shoudl talk about them in a forum

After you split the file the audio at the end of the CD will stop about 20 seconds before the end of the movie. Do you use TMPGEnc for spliting SVCD's or for just mpg files? I never discussed this as to why it happens all I know is many people have this problem. The method I described takes longer and has a longer setup time but once you set it up and use the bat files it's not that much trouble and the results are perfect everytime. I use to use TMPGEnc for everything but now I don't use it for anything.

interesting. No I would not have experienced that. I split my movies up front. I decide when and where to split them and overlap them. Extract two different audio streams, two different video streams. I use huffYUV and just have 2 completly independant .avi's and then I encode them. I then use the multiplexor to splice the audio and video together to the two different streams.
So if you just use it for what I descibed...which is a hell of a lot more accurate than splitting up the mpegs at the end (more chance of an oversize) then you shoudln't have too many problems

I'm guessing that some bits get wasted that way and for other reasons. It's not the professional way of doing things.Originally posted by poopity poop I then use the multiplexor to splice the audio and video together to the two different streams.

Actually the way I'm doing it is really more accurate and never out of sync. I probably thought the same as you when I first began encoding a few months ago.

Who are these experts? And... did I explain fully how I keep my a/v sync?

Did I... fully explain how I keep my a/v sync? I...don't have any problems keep an a/v sync, did I allude to that? Don't make judgments

Someone paying you mr professional? If so, I'd like to get in touch with you.

Oh...There is this advanced tool called avisynth you may have heard of....

one file:
video1=mpeg2source("blehbleh")
audio1=wavsource("blehbleh")
audiodub(video1,audio1)
resize
filters
ivTC
etc
trim(0,70200)

Another file:
video1=mpeg2source("blehbleh.d2v")
audio1=wavsource("blehbleh.wav")
audiodub(video1,audio1)
resize
filters
ivTC
etc
trim(60800,150000)

Load each file into vdub and extract the audio in eccence spliting up the .wav into...perfectly synced .wavs. Then make huffYUV .avis out of those 2 .avs's then ENCODE THEM.
How am I losing sync? Oh....I'm not!..that's right

Think before you post

It seems your feelings were hurt because you are still doing your encoding as a beginner (inexperienced, unskilled person; novice). Now that's a noun only!

I have nothing to prove to you

[DVD__GR]

Sorry guys but I think you want to torture yourself!!
sorry for my bad english.GET ORDIX M-PACK 2000 and then tell me your opinion.....it does splitting and merging seem lame job!!

:o You'd better try DVDCutter, it's very good in it, especially the registered version, it has versatile features, you can download it in www.cnet.com
Oh, the latest version is v3.1, you can visit its homepage
