Step 2. Create association of TMPGEnc DVD Author with DVDDATA files
If, despite the installed application, the DVDDATA file does not start in the TMPGEnc DVD Author application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the DVDDATA file with the TMPGEnc DVD Author program.
Step 3. Update TMPGEnc DVD Author to the latest version
If, despite the association of the TMPGEnc DVD Author program with the TMPGEnc DVD Author Video file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Pegasys Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DVDDATA file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to DVDDATA files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the DVDDATA file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected DVDDATA file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of DVDDATA file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair DVDDATA file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Pegasys Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file DVDDATA except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the DVDDATA file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the DVDDATA file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file DVDDATA to close. However, some background programs may block the DVDDATA file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
