Question about DVD compliant MPEG

[harpe025]

Hey all, I'm capturing video using LordSmurf's guide (which is very good I think). However, when I try to burn a DVD in EZ CD creator, it mentions that the video is not DVD compliant and may not play correctly, but add anyway? Also, a poster in one of my other questions:

https://www.videohelp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=678338#678338

said my video may not be DVD compliant and that's why DVDit! wants to re-encode with a large file size. Has anyone else experienced this type of problem or is it a problem with my MPEG codec/encoder? I've followed LordSmurf's guide to the letter and the DVDs I have created in DVDit! play fine so I'm not sure.

Well, does the specifications of your MPEG file meets that of DVDs?

Check the specs of wit Bitrate Viewer or MpegProperties

You didn't list what steps/settings you used, but glancing at Lord Smurf's site I suspect that the problem is you are using MP2 audio. The (NTSC) DVD standard only supports AC3 or PCM (uncompressed wav) audio. However, 95%+ of standalones will play MP2 audio anyway.

Not saying this is the problem (we need more info) but it sounds like a strong possibility.
