    Don't expect any newbie talk from me. I want this solved, so I'm going to be kind =D I've just bought my DVD writer (LiteOn SHWP-1635S) and I'm trying to create anime DVDs (dual audio, optional subs, about 10 episodes per DVD). However, I'm having some audio problems after burning... the problem is, there is none. Both audio streams are there according to my DVD players, but there's no actual audio...

    If there are any programs which let you convert OGM and MKV files with a defined bitrate, then feel free to tell me them. I tried AVI2DVD, but it tries to make one episode fit the disc, at a stupidly high bitrate (I want about 2000, it does 8000) My source videos are in OGM format, so I demux the audio into one AVI (with no audio) and two audio streams (OGG). I then convert and encode everything to one M2V and two AC3 files, and use DVDlab-PRO to mux and author, but not much luck. All M2V and AC3 files play perfectly before authouring.

    All video files been encoded at average 2000kbps VBR, max bitrate 4000kbps, using QuEnc, then 2:3 pulldown has been performed on the resulting M2V files

    Here's all my playback results:

    ---------
    ATTEMPT ONE
    # of Episodes: 2 (Dual Audio)
    Audio Coversion Path:
    128kbps OGM >>> Winamp >>> 128kbps WAV (48kHz) >>> BeSweet >>> 128kbps AC3 (48kHz)
    Burned With: Gigatain DVD+R

    CyberLink PowerDVD 5: Barely plays, very VERY V-E-R-Y jerky, no audio
    Pacific DVD-1002 Player: Plays video fine, both audio streams are apparently there, but no audio
    Alba DVD70S Player: Same as Pacific, video but no audio
    (A friend's) Sony Playstation 2: Video and audio work fine, proving the audio is there on the disc after all. However, video is B&W (Due to the DVD being NTSC on a PAL TV... the B&W only happens with the PS2 though, bothe the Pacific and Alba play video fine in colour)

    ----------
    ATTEMPT TWO
    # of Episodes: 1 (Single Stream Audio)
    Audio Coversion Path:
    128kbps OGM >>> Winamp >>> 128kbps WAV (48kHz) >>> BeSweet >>> 128kbps AC3 (48kHz)
    Burned With: Infiniti CD-R (mini-DVD Mode)

    CyberLink PowerDVD 5: Barely plays, very VERY V-E-R-Y jerky, no audio
    Pacific DVD-1002 Player: Plays video fine, audio stream is apparently there, but no audio
    Alba DVD70S Player: Same as Pacific, video but no audio

    ----------
    ATTEMPT THREE
    # of Episodes: 1 (Single Stream Audio)
    Audio Coversion Path:
    128kbps OGM >>> Winamp >>> 128kbps WAV (48kHz) >>> TMPGEnc with TooLAME plugin >>> 192kbps MP2(48kHz)
    Burned With: Infiniti CD-R (mini-DVD Mode)

    CyberLink PowerDVD 5: Plays perfectly =)
    Pacific DVD-1002 Player: Plays video fine, audio stream is apparently there, but no audio
    Alba DVD70S Player: Same as Pacific, video but no audio

    Never mind, I finally found a good combination :)

    Video:
    Source OGM >>> Avi2Dvd generated AVS script >>> FreeEnc (CBR, 2000kbps) >>> 2:3 pulldown with DVDlab-PRO >>> MPV

    Audio:
    Source OGM >>> Avi2Dvd >>> AC3 (128kbps 44.1khz) >>> Built in DVDlab-PRO audio transcoder >>> MPA (192kbps 48kHz)

    And it works perfectly on everything! xD
