    I'm sure that this has been asked before but I could not see it in the forum.

    I am using dvd2svcd program with tmpgenc encoder. When I encode avi to svcd it does not combine the audieo with the video.


    What I am saying is when I take the avi file & try to encode it to mpeg2 when it is done I get no audio with the video. I have been using dvd2svcd for about 2 years you would think I would of tried this step by now or know some thing about it. nope not this time.

    if any one know of any other easyer program or how to avi 2 svcd with dvd2svcd then would be great if you could post some that might help me out.

    Thanx & sorry if I reposted.

    CHEERS : )

    did you convert the audio from the avi to wav?? even tho ive never used dvd2svcd i know that tmpgenc has a problem converting compressed audio so that would be your best bet.

    I don't think that is the problem. I get the mpeg files I need I just don't get sound off the mpeg files. I do feel it has to do with a setting in dvd2svcd. I have tried almost everything. Unless there is a setting in tmpge I have to correct. I do know the default on tmpge is set to mix audio with video. So I don't think the problem is there. I am just hoping someone else has had this same problem & post but

    Thanx for your reply.

    tmpgenc doesnt like compressed audio(mp3,ac3 ect ect), so you have to convert to wav, its a common problem with tmpgenc, i know of other encoders which have the exact same problem. so the only way to remedy the problem is to use vdub to convert the audio to wav(or i can give you a link to a simple yet very effective audio decompressor). if your source is ac3 tho, there is a plug-in of sorts which lets you encode ac3 audio directly from tmpgenc without converting the audio to wav first. just install this little prog and your all set http://fcchandler.home.comcast.net/AC3ACM/AC3ACM.zip
    dont worry when i first started all this shite i used to have that problem and thats exactly how i fixed it.

    I'm new here and I've tried a few programs, but most of the videos I have are AVIs, but I can't seem to find something to convert them to VCD files. What should I get and will I be able to get a 700Mb avi onto a disk as VCD?
