I have had no luck getting TMPGEnc to work with a particular movie I am trying to convert. I seperated the audio from the movie into a wav file with virtualdub. i am now trying to convert the wav file using headac3he and i am having difficulty with that as well. this is the error message i get when i try to load the wav file.
now its telling me it cant load the source file! perhaps it wont convert wav files? if any one can help, it would be appreciated.
okay.. just read that i'll have to convert the wav into ac3. which program can i use? and if my video is xvid with ac3, how can i extract the ac3 audio from the movie? thanks
Okay, i got to the point where I have my wav file converted to ac3 format. Now, i am on number 3. i dont get what it wants me to do now. i followed the link, but i am not sure where i should go from there... 3. Now do you follow the mpgenc encode guide as usual but you leave the audio source empty and encode How do I convert an AC3 audio file or DivX with AC3 to an audio file? If you have a DivX with AC3 start here if you only have an AC3 file skip to step 2. 1. First open the DivX in Virtualdub, select under Audio->Direct Stream Copy and File->Save as Wav to save the ac3, name it as file.ac3 because Virtualdub will NOT convert it to wav only copy the ac3 audio to a single file. 2. Convert the AC3 audio to MP2 audio with BeSweetGUI, you find a guide over at doom9 here if you don't how to use it. (If you get an error when converting to mp2 you could try the azid in besweet instead. Download first azid. Click on azid2 in the besweet. Select azid.exe and the ac3 as source and select a new wav and convert to wav and last do you convert the wav to mpeg audio with TMPGEnc, select the wav as audio source when converting in next step). 3. Now do you follow the Tmpgenc encode guide as usual but you leave the audio source empty and encode. 4. Last do you multiplex, join the video together with the mp2 audio, read here how and then burn or cut the video as usual. If this do not work use GraphEdit to convert the ac3 to wav, read here how to use it.
