Help with Video Conversion wont rewind/fastforward

picklepepper23 posted 2008 Sep 04 18:35

I'm using a Sonicview PVR receiver with dishnetwork. Wen the receiver records a show and i play back the file it allows me to fastforward and rewind the video. But when I convert a file using Xilsoft Video converted ultimate it plays the file but does not allow me to fastforward or rewind the file. I'm kind of new to th is please let me know if any other information is needed. File format receiver makes is .TS Video Mpeg2Video 544X480 29.97 framerate Audio mp2 160 Bitrate 48000 sample rate channels 2 If there is any general suggestion to allow the Xvid file that i convert to .TS to fastforward/rewind on my PVR receiver please help.

Can you post all details from the ts using mediainfo? I would try another mpeg2 converter like hcenc, tmpgenc. And then multiplex the mpg to a ts using tsmuxer. Or you just have to adjust the i-frames mpeg2 settings in xilisoft converter.

Ok sorry for the late response. Here is the stats for the file i converted. It was a regular Xvid file. Convert it to .TS using TmpegXpress 4.0. I tried to get as similar to the file that the receiver outputs wen i record a show. (The file the receiver outputs is able to rewind and fast forward.) General ID : 0 Complete name : C:\Documents and Settings\Snake\My Documents\271.ts Format : MPEG-TS File size : 608 MiB Duration : 4mn 58s Overall bit rate : 17.1 Mbps Video ID : 512 (0x200) Menu ID : 1 (0x1) Format : MPEG Video Format version : Version 2 Format profile : Main@Main Format settings, Matrix : Standard Duration : 4mn 58s Bit rate mode : Constant Bit rate : 16.2 Mbps Nominal bit rate : 15.0 Mbps Width : 544 pixels Height : 480 pixels Display aspect ratio : 4/3 Frame rate : 29.970 fps Standard : NTSC Colorimetry : 4:2:0 Scan type : Interlaced Scan order : Top Field First Bits/(Pixel*Frame) : 1.917 Writing library : TMPGEnc XPress 4.5.1.254 Audio ID : 513 (0x201) Menu ID : 1 (0x1) Format : MPEG Audio Format version : Version 1 Format profile : Layer 2 Duration : 4mn 58s Bit rate mode : Constant Bit rate : 160 Kbps Channel(s) : 2 channels Sampling rate : 48.0 KHz Resolution : 16 bits Now this is the file that the Receiver outputs to my external DVD. Keep in mind t his file is able to fastforward/rewind General Complete name : C:\Documents and Settings\Snake\Desktop\Law Order Special Victims Unit [040908-003538].ts Format : MPEG-TS Format profile : No PAT/PMT File size : 80.0 MiB Duration : 2s 367ms Overall bit rate : 284 Mbps Video ID : 4130 (0x1022) Format : MPEG Video Format version : Version 2 Format profile : Main@Main Format settings, Matrix : Standard Duration : 2s 367ms Bit rate mode : Constant Bit rate : 15.0 Mbps Nominal bit rate : 15.0 Mbps Width : 544 pixels Height : 480 pixels Display aspect ratio : 4/3 Frame rate : 29.970 fps Colorimetry : 4:2:0 Scan type : Interlaced Scan order : Top Field First Bits/(Pixel*Frame) : 1.917 Audio ID : 4131 (0x1023) Format : MPEG Audio Format version : Version 1 Format profile : Layer 2 Bit rate mode : Constant Bit rate : 160 Kbps Channel(s) : 2 channels Sampling rate : 48.0 KHz Resolution : 16 bits Video delay : -268ms Questions.... Do you see anything in both files that would prevent my conversion from not rewinding/fastforwarding? Wat exactly is the Bframe, pframe etc. Would would allow for fastforward/rewind. Also the file that the receiver outputs also has a .IDX and a .IFO file that goes with it. Could something with-in these files make it able to rewind/fastforward??? Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
