4. TMPGEnc MPEG Tools (cut big mpeg into 2 files less
than 74/80 minutes, NOT 650megs, for proper VCD creation)
In TMPGEnc, now go to File -> MPEG Tools.
Go to the last tab named "Merge & Cut", select your video type
as MPEG1 Video-CD.
Now click on ADD and select the .mpg file you just created.
Click on the filename in the box and select EDIT, the start
time should be 0, timings need to be entered in seconds, so
for max time enter 4380 (73mins * 60 secs/min). If you're making
80min CDs, calculate 79*60.
Update: If you open the .mpg in Windows Media Player,
play it for a few seconds, and PAUSE it... TMPGEnc will not
freeze when selecting EDIT to select the start and end time.
Leave WMP paused in the background. (Thanks go to John Salmon
for this info!)
At the bottom, choose the output location and filename for this
portion of the movie.
Repeat this same process again by adding the same .mpg you created,
but with a start time of 2-3 seconds before the end of the first
portion to allow for error, and end time of "last".
If you get an error stating there's not enough free space, you
may need to change the directory you're saving to.
Note: TMPGEnc does NOT FREEZE when cutting, if you think
it is "frozen", just be patient and let your computer's busy
light turn off.
