Rendering Audio for DVDA

Skratch wrote on 6/22/2006, 9:27 PM

This part doesn't make sense, and there is no explanation on how to go about it in any of the manuals. I want to render my project in MPEG2 DVD Architect 24P NTSC with audio as wav 48K 24bit. But you can only do it seperate. Fine, I render my video and get a silent video, then render the same video file as the propper audio file... but can't get the rendered audio version to work in the DVDA software... just a flat silent line when I try to add it. What am I missing here? all the properties seem to be set appropriate.

If the file names are not exactly the same, and if they are not in the same folder, then DVDA won't match them up. Just click on the video/media file in the DVDA project list, and then import the audio file in the right-hand pane.

Try rendering using the Dolby Digital AC-3 file type with the Stereo DVD template.

I might be wrong here but apart from what John is saying I don't think the DVD spec supports 24bit audio. If I'm right you'll have to render as 48K/16bit.

Wouldn't a wav file have to be rerendered anyway?
