Hi,

and thank's for developing this plugin. Unfortunately encoding does not start at all. Maybe this is the same problem as previous one (tve3, single seat)?

Cheers,

the problem is due you use a custom profile and TS input file, and ffmpeg verbose an error

2008-01-12 17:47:26.218750 [VConv Error Reader]: [ $$ VCDBG $$ ] [ExternalTranscoder][Err]Error while opening codec for output stream #0.1 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height

I think you crop settings are wrong may be you can remove it or the audio settings are wrong.

it is the command generated from you custom profile
ffmpeg.exe -i "G:\Capture\Das Erste_Tagesschau_2008-01-11_20_00.ts" -aspect 4:3 -cropbottom 24 -croptop 24 -cropleft 32 -cropright 32 -threads 1 -vcodec libxvid -vtag XVID -s 640x480 -b 512k -r 25 -qmin 5 -qmax 5 -qdiff 5 -acodec libmp3lame -ab 128k "G:\Capture\Das Erste_Tagesschau_2008-01-11_20_00.avi"

can you test this line
ffmpeg.exe -i "G:\Capture\Das Erste_Tagesschau_2008-01-11_20_00.ts" -aspect 4:3 -threads 1 -vcodec libxvid -vtag XVID -s 640x480 -b 512k -r 25 -qmin 5 -qmax 5 -qdiff 5 -acodec libmp3lame "G:\Capture\Das Erste_Tagesschau_2008-01-11_20_00.avi"

Thank

tried your custom command line. get the same error. sorry.

maybe this can help you:

Stream #0.1[0x66](deu): Audio: mp2, 48000 Hz, stereo, 256 kb/s

edit: found a solution for me. in profile settings at advanced settings i add: "-acodec copy". so audio is not transcodec and no error occurs. this is ok for me and i can use this plugin which saves me lot of harddisk.

Will this plugin work with MP 0.2.3.0?

Changelog:

• Fix bug to encode My Video record when the TVE3 support is enabled
• Automatic replacement of Compress of MP Build in by the VideoConvertor UI in menu TV recorded
• Improve the option "delete original", in each profile you can specify different cleanup policy (see in Setup UI)
• Fix scheduler for the tv records added automatically when the option "delete orginal" is disabled (avoid to re-encode again the same file)
• Fix statistics output (avg time & max time)
• update the mencoder and ffmpeg parameters automatically generated (improve the encoding quality)
• Binaries upgrade (fix some problem with mencoder)
• Update all default profiles
• Fix binaries synchornization between MP and TVE3
• add crops and threads settings for Mencoder (common settings between FFMPEG and Mencoder)
• Fix some UI issues for XFace Skin
• add support for SpinSafe Revolve and Replicant Skin
• Fix some UI issues for 4:3 Skin
  

download (update VideoConvertor Core and for TVE3 update also videoConvertor TVE3 Client and Server)

I wait your feeback ,

Bye Fab

Fabrice, I'm a bit confused by the instructions on your site:
"IMPORTANT: if you would install VideoConvertor TVE3 extension you need to install VideoConvertor for TVE2 (previous steps) and installed the Media Portal TVE3 server 1.0."

So basically you have to install and set up both the TVE2 and the TVE3 versions?

I'll give installing this new version a shot and see if it works, just trying to clear up the directions.
