TMPGEnc Plus .avi to PAL DVD is m2v + .wav not MPEG?

[dastott]

Hello everyone. I'm sorry if this is a stupid question. I'm trying to make a home movie PAL DVD edited with Pinnacle Studio 9 and recorded on DV. My Pinnacle seems to output to NTSC by default so I am making a large avi file first (24 gigs for almost 2 hours of movie!) then converting to PAL mpeg2 DVD. However, instead of outputting to a single mpeg file TMPGEnc gives me two files, a .wav and a .m2v. I understand these are the sound and video files but how to input them into TMPGEnc DVD Author after the conversion? How do I finish making my PAL DVD? Thanks...

There should be no problem inputing them to TMPGEnc DVD Author. You select the video and if the program can't find the audio, you point the program to it.

In TMPGEnc, I'd say that you must have had the black one selected. To output to one MPEG file, select the red one

As redwudz says though, TDA will still accept what you have now.
