 Posted: Fri Mar 31, 2006 8:29 pm Post subject: cinelerra and mpeg2enc [SOLVED] |
 |
|
When I try to encode video samples in mpeg2 using cinelerra-cvs-2.0, I got this error message: | Code: | FileMPEG::open_file: Running /usr/lib/cinelerra/mpeg2enc.plugin -q 15 -a 3 -F 3 -I 1 -M 1 -z t -f 3 -g 45 -G 45 -R 0 -o '/root/test.mpv'
sh: /usr/lib/cinelerra/mpeg2enc.plugin: No such file or directory
|
After some web search, I found out that cinelerra has not use an mpeg2enc plugin anymore since version 1.1.7 or 1.7 but statically links mpeg2enc in the program. Apparently, some part of the source code does not know it  . I am using an AMD-64 Turion M-37 and I got the same problem with a Pentium 4. Has anyone succedeed in encoding videos in mpeg2 using cinelerra?

did you post it at the cinelerra-mailing list https://init.linpro.no/mailman/skolelinux.no/listinfo/cinelerra?
better for cinelerra related stuff...
cheers

Thank for the tip about cinelerra mailing list. I found there this link http://content.serveftp.net/video/renderTest/guideToCinExport.html detailling how to export a video with cinelerra. I quickly tested the procedure to produce an mpeg2 file and it worked. I still need to burn the test file on a RW DVD, but I will not be able to do it before Monday. Anyway, I think the problem is solved.

Hi,
the link you mentioned doesn't work anymoer. Did you test the procedure? Can you give us some tips how to do this?
Thx,
cazze

Strange, the links still works for me. To render a movie for a DVD, you need to separately process sound and picture. The key is to use "YUV4MPEG Stream" as "File Format" instead of "Mpeg Video" for the video.
To render the sound, use SHIFT+R, then choose "Microsoft WAV" for "File Format", select "Audio" and unselect "Video"; in the "Audio" toolbox, choose "16 bit linear" and do not select "Dither". In the main "Render" diaolog box, you probably want to select "Insert nothing" as the "Insertion strategy". Then launch the rendering that should be fast for the audio. Render now the images with SHIFT+R, select "YUV4MPEG Stream" as "File Format", select "Video" and unselect "Audio"; in the "Video" toolbox select "Use Pipe", click "ffmpeg" and update the command to " ffmpeg -f yuv4mpegpipe -i - -y -target dvd -ilme -ildct -deinterlace -me full -f mpeg2video %" (-deinterlace is to be used only for interlaced source such as a DV camcorder, and -me full is probably not very usefull). You can also choose "mpeg2enc" for "Pipe Presets", but I have not found a way to produce deinterlacing as good as with ffmpeg. Once again, you probably need "Insert nothing" as "Insertion strategy", then render. It can take some time depending on your architecture and the effects you choose.
Now you have two files, one audio file (e.g. gnat.wav) and one video mpeg file (e.g. gnat.m2v). Hence you need to merge them in one mpeg file: | Code: | | ffmpeg -i gnat.wav -i gnat.m2v -target dvd gnat.mpg |
would do the work to get gnat.mpg that can be used for a DVD.
I use dvdstyler to create my DVD menus and to associate the .mpg files. I also emerged qdvdauthor that might be better, but I have not checked it yet. I use cinelerra-cvs-20060219 and dvdstyler-1.4 on an amd64 architecture. Both work beautifully well.
Good luck.

@mpiter
thx for this little howto. The link works again. He wasn't working for 3 days here  Glad he is up again.
For the problem with the mpeg2enc.plugin problem, just make a symbolic link to the file like this:
ln -s /usr/bin/mpeg2enc /usr/lib/cinelerra/mpeg2enc.plugin
that should solve your problem.
As for multiplexing the audio and the video stream, you could also use
mplex -f 8 -o bla.mpg bla.m2v bla.mp2
with bla.mp2 the output of the audio rendered as an mpeg2 audio stream.
