TO SONY,

I WOULD LIKE TO SEE SUPPORT FOR .m2v IN A FUTURE VERSION IF AT ALL POSSIBLE AS I USE MPEGS FROM CLIENTS THAT HAVE CREATED THEM ON THE MAC. MUCH APPRECIATED...PATRICK

Yes. We have some Matrox edit stations that can encode MPEG-2 into .m2v files in realtime. But we can't take adavantage of that capability because DVDA requires muxed MPEG files.... blech!

While it is a seperate step, there are utilities that will create a program stream from an elementary stream. TMPGEnc has some MPEG tools that will do this - you specify the video file and don't specify an audio file for the muxing operation.

I totally agree that DVDA should handle m2v and other elementary streams. This was covered just a few days ago in another thread. Click here to get directions on how to workaround the problem:
