    I have an XviD encoded in AC3 audio. I want to convert to MPEG2 compatible DVD. I extracted the AC3 audio using VirtualDub and tried to use HeadAC3he to convert the audio to WAV before I encoded the video and audio to MPEG2. The AC3 stream is corrupted, and I get this error in HeadAC3he:

    AC3 decoding cycle ...done
    AC3 decoding cycle ...done
    AC3 decoding cycle ...done
    AC3 decoding cycle ...done
    AC3 decoding cycle
    Bad Syncword at frame 47571! The AC3 stream is probably corrupt.
    ...done

    So the AC3 stream is corrupt... what do I do?

    Now that I learned how to use BeSpliced (drop and drag... I can't believe I didn't think of it), it works perfectly. Encoded to WAV and now combining the XviD and WAV to MPEG2.
