DVDx with Tmpgenc and videoserver crashes after 1st pass

[donaldduckeh]

I have a reproducable problem using DVDx and TMPGenc using 2 passes
(VBR) and the videoserver. In both cases (with different DVDs) where I have encountered this problem it was the second half of the DVD that I wanted to encode.

The encoding process stopped after 50% that means after the first
pass. Of course I have checked multi-pass in DVDx 2.0 and the
newest version of tmpgenc. DVDx and the videoserver crashed while tmpgenc was waiting for data.

I have already successfull encoded with DVDx in 2 passes but always
with the first half of the DVD (the first chapters).

Is it possible that DVDx makes a mistake in counting the number of frames when using the costom chapter setting? The same problem occured, regardsless whether I used the number of frames for the chapters or used whole for the maximum number of frames.

Did someone have the same problem? Does someone have a solution?

Best regards,
Donald

assuming using Max Frames = whole, don't use the total, but a few less frames. works fine with me.

Thank you for the answer...ist there any rule of thumb how many frames should be ignored?

Hi Donald,

cut about 100 Frames (= 4 sec).
