Hello. I have only asked a question once before and so I am still a newbie. I have a video file that I am trying to encode in TMPGEnc 3.0 Xpress but I keep recieving the error "Can't open video part, only the audio part can be opened" when I try to add the file to the encoding list. Here are the specs as seen in GSpot. Let me know if you need any more information from me. Thanks!

Audio Codec

Fs: 48000 Hz

Stream Type and A/V Interleave

Rendering

Thanks in advance!

I guess your Xvid need to be processed with Directshow part of the Xvid decoder (new features of the codec aren't decoded by the VFW part of the decoder, and this is the one that Tmpgenc uses by default).

I don't know for 3.0 but in 2.5 you had a setting to change in environnemental settings, VFAPI tab (uncheck support for avi, check the onbe for Direct show source).

Thanks a bunch for your assistance Dialhot. I had trouble finding those settings in 3.0 so I did some searches. For anyone with a similar problem to me:

Locate the MPEG-2 Video VFAPI Plug-in on the web and download it. Unpack and install. Then, open 3.0 and click on Options and go to preferances and under the Input Plug-In Setting tab, uncheck "avi file reader" in the first box and check "Direct Show File Reader" in the second box. Then, you're good to go!

Thanks again, Dialhot!
