    What DVD player are you using (Model number and Brand)? Most DVD players play AC3, Mp2, and PCM audio formats. Are you putting the AC3 file on a CD-R/RW or a DVD-/+R/RW? I can say that my DVP-642 /37 can play AC3 files from DVDs and CD-Rs.

    im using a sony. its a good quality player but for some reason it wont play the audio. i converted the .avi with tmpgenc into a mpv and wav files. then authored them using IFO edit. burned using nero and nothing. the original file works in windows media so i dont know what the issue could be. maybe because i didnt extract the ac3 to begin with? i even converted the wav to ac3 but that didnt work either. i must be making some simple mistake, please help. oh yeah, i burned to a ritek dvd-r.

    Is the your sony player even recognizing that there are AC3 files on the DVD-R? My sony doesn't play AC3 files out side of the .VOB container but my Philips does. Basicly what I'm saying is that if I played a movie with an AC3 sound track it would work fine but an AC3 stream by itself won't be recognized. My philips doesn't care how the AC3 file is. I don't think you will get it to play.

    Go ahead. I have never needed to do so, so I don't know if that will work or not. I still don't think that the sony player will recognize the .mp2 file as it did with the .AC3 file.
