*1 MPEG-1 VBR (variable bitrate) files cannot be smart rendered. *2 Depending on the settings and device used, an audio gap may appear in the captured movie data. Use the trial version to verify the quality of your capture system. *3 files which were multiplexed by software such as freeware may not be imported correctly. *4 DVD-VR importation requires a media compatible drive and UDF 2.0 support. Standard Windows installations are not able to copy or read the UDF 2.0 format, so such functions cannot be used. This application cannot process DVD-Video protected by a Copyright or anti-copy enforcement system such as CSS and CPRM. *5 Some MTS files recorded in Blu-ray (AVCHD, BDMV and BDAV) may not be correctly processed due to the file's internal structure. Preferably use the Source Wizard to import the file. Blu-ray (BDAV/BDMV) importation requires a media compatible drive and UDF 2.5 / 2.6 support (Analysis importing from BDXL media is not supported). This application cannot process a Blu-ray (BDAV/BDMV) protected by a Copyright or anti-copy enforcement system. *6 Microsoft TV PVR file (*.wtv) importation requires the computer that recorded the video, or a computer that supports Media Center PC video recording file playback.
WTV file importation is possible on the computer used to record the file, or on a computer able to create this type of file. Recordings copy-protected by a DRM scheme cannot be imported. Only WTV files containing MPEG-2, H.264/AVC video and MP2, AC3 or AAC audio can be imported. *7 The video YUV colorspace is interpolated to the Type-2 DV codec used by our company for AVI input, allowing higher picture quality. Except for uncompressed AVI, AVI file input requires the codec corresponding to the format. Type-1 DV and other importations through DirectShow depends on the available environment. For this reason, it is normal for some AVI files to not be readable. Audio may not be available in the second clip when no more than one instance of a codec can exist at a given time within the system. *8 QuickTime file importation requires QuickTime 7.7.6 or newer versions (audio may not be correctly processed in case of a multitrack audio source file). *9 Data broadcasted live on the Internet is not supported. Files protected by the Windows Media Digital Copyright Management (DRM) are not supported. Files without a Seekable (cue) flag are not supported. *10 PV3/4 video recording file importation requires the Hearth Soft "AviUtl plug-in EARTH SOFT DV.aui Ver.2.4.4 or Ver.3.0.1" correctly installed. Versions other than 2.4.4 and 3.0.1 do not function.
Recording data recorded with the AviUtl plug-in EARTH SOFT DV.aui Ver 2.4.4 require Ver. 2.4.4 to be imported, data recorded with the version 3.0.1 require Ver. 3.0.1 to be imported.
Processing the audio of a PV3/4 video recording requires that the audio format is LPCM. *11 Importations through DirectShow or MediaFoundation requires the format CODEC (playback software). Available CODECs may differ depending on the computer. For this reason, it is normal that some files are not readable. Some specific formats used (VBR, ogg, etc.) may result in an audio gap or may not be outputted. *12 Supports CBR and VBR. *13 Dolby Digital Plus importation supports audio data sources of up to 7.1 channels. *14 AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) importation supports audio data sources of up to 5.1 channels. AAC Smart Rendering is not supported (However, the source can be converted into Dolby Digital, Linear PCM or MP2). *15 Using Dolby Digital audio in several instances of the TMPGEnc Authoring Works 7 main application at the same time, with the Batch Authoring Tool. *16 File linking for MPEG files with different characteristics is practiced according to the criteria parameters of the Master clip. Files which cannot be smart rendered will be linked by re-encoding. *17 The MPEG Tool supports MPEG files created by the TMPGEnc encoder series. (MPEG files generated by a hardware encoder or other companies' encoder may not be correctly processed) *18 Requires a compatible disc drive (BDXL writing is not supported in this application). *19 Audio gap and other issues may arise when the application is used in certain conditions. For this reason, we recommend you use the trial version to evaluate its performance before purchasing it. Partially damaged source files may not be imported at all. *20 Supports only DVD-Video, Blu-ray, and AVCHD authoring data. A general MPEG file is not supported. *21 The Batch Authoring Tool cannot output multiple projects at the same time, nor output while the TMPGEnc Authoring Works 7 main application is outputting. *22 Supports project files created by TMPGEnc Video Mastering Works 5 Ver.5.2.0.62 or newer. A file created using a previous version cannot be added to the clip list. TMPGEnc Video Mastering Works 5/6/7 must be installed in the same environment as this product.


Supplemental Notice

  • Some VOB and VRO files recorded in the DVD-Video/VR format may not be correctly processed. (always use the "From DVD/Blu-ray/AVCHD" option in the Source Wizard).
  • Supports video files generated by the TMPGEnc series, most capture devices and DVD/BD recorders. Depending on the settings and device used, an audio gap may appear in the captured movie data.
