hi
thanx for the reply, iv extracted the audio as a wav and converted it to ac3 using tmpgenc sound player with the aid of another guide but now what do i do with the resulting ac3 file.

 

Author a DVD with IFOEdit.
Let's suppose you converter the sount to AC3 128 kbps (but if you used TMPGenc you might have converter the sound to MP2 160 kbps, changing its default settings [it shower 2900 kbps bacause it used uncompressed WAV) or, if you used FFMPEg GUI you migh have converter the sound to AC3 128 knps:

1) deterimine the video bitrate
Use a bitrate calculator like DVTool
L = movie's length
128 / 160 kbps = audio bitrete
It will tell you to encode at B video bitrate.

2) use TMPGenc to encode at the B bitrate. It will create a M2V video + an audio file you won't use

3) run IFOEdit. DVD___DVD Author.
a) Load the M2V
b) locd the AC3 (or MP3). Click on the language and change tyhe language name (from the defaut German to English, for instance)
c) Choose the destination directory and then process.

Once it ends, you'll have, in the destination directory, the ifo & bup necessary files + the VOB files (and, you you choosed the bitrate well, you'll have 4.3 Gb of VOBs).

Burn that stuff with Nero (New: DVD --->DVD Video).

 

oh thanx so much for that.
just one question is there a better ac3 encoder in terms of quality than that ffmpeggui, i dont really care about simplicity or cost but just the quality of audio produced, what about besweet or tmpgenc sound player, any good?? or is there any better
