I can't start it. I've got a message that says my trial period is finished I've tried to desinstall it and install it again. Doesn't work.

Thanks for posting this Jorge I hope it improves over the flaws of 2.5.

From what I read in your post this version looks very interesting I must try it.

I did not buy it as it's a trial but there's a kind of registration with the pass for the 14 days trial.

Don't you ever read the screens ?
It's told that you have to reboot after the install (that's probably why it didn't work yesterday) and you need an internet connexion to activate the trial period AND use the soft (periodical license verifying).

this tool can't be used on a laptop

audioslave,did you saw that in the download page?
"After the installation, you will need Internet connection to be able to use the functions (periodical license verification). "
i still don't install but this is not the "problem" ?

Yes jorel I've followed every step. But when I ask TMPGEnc to "Obtain a license" it says "Input data not sufficient"... I'm about to give up on this program.

Hi,

I've installed it, and I'm encoding right now a small sample. First impression: even slower than tmpgenc!
I'm using avisynth filters, and in VBR mode, it'll last 30 min. It last 12 min with tmpgenc! Next step is trying Cq mode (Constant Quality), to compare global quality...

To get it work, I had to install Media Player 9, and activate avs reader plugin...

Hi,

Well, I'm a bit disappointed: I get very poor result comparing the videos with ssim, compared to previous version...
I speed it a bit, activating SSE support, wich comes disactivated by default, so times are similars to previous versions.

Visual comparison don't show this 'poor' quality, so I'll compare them more deeply, and I'll first try converting videos without avisynth...

CU,
Fabrice

Hi fabrice ,
Good thinking. I think the only way to proove the good or bad results of an encoder compared to another encoder is to use them without any filtering at all.
You can run some comparison tests with filtering activated afterwards.
Do let us know of the tests outcome
Cheers
