[Encode2mpeg-users] v0.6.0 error: libmp3lame complains about <blank> Hz sample rate

[Adam M. <ha...@gm...>]

On startup I'm seeing this strange error:

$ encode2mpeg -v -o output input.mpg -avionly -aid 128 -encode 3:2:2
-profile divxht
**ERROR: [encode2mpeg] libmp3lame does not support  Hz sample rate

Any ideas?

For some reason encode2mpeg is failing to detect the sample rate of input.mpg.
If you add -srate 48000 it should skip the check.

Please run this command:
mplayer -msglevel identify=6 -vo md5sum:outfile=/dev/null -ao null -nocache -frames 0 input.mpg -aid 128 -v
and post the output

done. Encoding does appear to be happening, but I saw this:

 /home/adamm/bin/encode2mpeg: line 4477: ((: <10602: syntax error: operand
expected (error token is "<10602")

I'll know sometime in the next 10 hours if it worked. Perhaps it's time for
a CPU upgrade. :)

Ok, here it is. By the way... input.mpg is 2.2GB.

This error is unrelated to the previous one and it won't affect the current encoding.
Please run:
yuvscaler </dev/null 2>&1

Ok, the trouble you had are due to the fact that input.mpg does not have an
audio stream. Only video. Or at least mplayer is not able to identify the audio
stream. 
Does "mplayer input.mpg" play with audio or not?

If the source does not have audio, the proper solution in your case is to use 
-encode 0:2:2.
I will fix encode2mpeg to output such message in case of source without audio.

DOH! I didn't have it installed. After installing the "mjpegtools" package
(I'm using Fedora Core 5) here's the result:

However, this doesn't seem to improve my original encode job. I still see:

-profile divxht

This command line appeared to be working:

encode2mpeg -v -o outout input.mpg -avionly -aid 128 -encode 3:2:2 -profile
divxht -srate 48000

But the resulting .avi file is zero bytes. There was an error...

This was a simple bug about encode2mpeg checking for mjpegtools when it
should not have done it. To be fixed in the next release.

Two pass encoding is broken in mplayer 1.0pre8. You should:
use 1 pass encoding, or patch mplayer (see the README) or
use a recent SVN snapshot of mplayer.

But I'm sure "mplayer input.mpg -aid 128" will not :-).

I think you were using -aid 128 with the encode2mpeg command line but
the audio stream present in input.mpg does not have aid 128 but 0.

Please run this time:
mplayer -msglevel identify=6 -vo md5sum:outfile=/dev/null -ao null -nocache -frames 0 input.mpg

and post the output. Just to be sure.

So, if you omit -aid 128 or use -aid 0 (or whatever audio stream id
is present in input.mpg) and use 1 pass encoding it should work.

Ya, "-aid 128" was definitely wrong. The original command line seems to be
working if I remove "-aid 128". I'll try 1-pass or patch my
mplayer/mencoder.

Thanks!!

Intresting.
video MPEG-2 480x480
audio (most probably) mp2 384kbps

It looks like you have got an mpeg for a SVCD with mpeg multichannel audio.
You could be able to convert the audio to ac3 5.1 with encode2mpeg.

Mmm... yeah, that would be nice!

Actually, it's an MPEG video right from my TV Tuner Card (Hauppauge WinTV
PVR-350). I'm encoding some old VHS tapes.

The Hauppauge works pretty well. Recording video is as simple as
cat /dev/video > input.mpg

Well, if you are recording from VHS tapes I doubt they contain 5.1 audio.
But I'm corious about the mpeg made by your TV Tuner Card.
Can I have a small sample? few MB are enough.

Thanks.
