Hi,
I am using VV 3.0c to edit all my DV footage, and I am then importing this into DVD Workshop 1.2 to produce the final MPEG2 files to write to DVD using the Pioneer A04.
I have given up trying to produce MPEG2 files in Vegas using the Mainconcept codec because despite enabling the "do not re-encode valid MPEG2 files" in DVD Workshop it still goes ahead and does it anyway!
So, I am just importing the native DV footage and letting DVD Workshop do the conversion. The picture quality is good (are they using the Mainconcept codec?), and it saves going through the whole process twice.
My question is this: I am using a Canon XM-1 which records sound in PCM. When I choose the settings to make an MPEG2 file, I have the choice of encoding the audio in either LPCM or MPEG2 audio.
Which option should I choose, and what are the differences between the two?
Also, on my microphone it states PCM. Is the LPCM option just the same thing?
Thanks for any advice you may have.
