Tmpgenc Authoring: Works 6 Full Fix
TMPGEnc Authoring Works 6: A Deep Dive into Professional Disc Creation
Troubleshooting Tips
- Use the Source Wizard: Don't drag and drop files manually immediately. Use the "Source Wizard" to normalize audio levels and ensure your video meets the specific standard for your target disc (NTSC or PAL).
- Check Volume Sizes Early: If you are burning to a standard 4.7GB DVD but your project is 6GB, the software will need to transcode it (lowering quality). Use the bitrate calculator in the settings to estimate final size before you start editing.
- Simulate Before Burning: Always use the "Simulation" feature. This lets you navigate your menus with a virtual remote to ensure your chapter buttons link to the correct scenes.
