teh message says something about consistant bitrate i ripped the audio with dvd to avi

well the exact wording of that msg may have some good clue as to what the problem is instead of guessing.

I'm going out on a limb here to make a guess.

The one time I've had problems with audio in Maestro was when I tried to add an AC-3 (aka DolbyDigital) file. It gave me a minor message when adding, then later balked when trying to create a Disc Image.

I comes down to this: AC-3 files can be encoded in either LittleEndian / BigEndian byte ordering (aka Intel / Motorola). I believe I had set it to the Intel order. When I re-encoded using the Motorola-ordered setting, all was well. So just check for that in any case-even if it doesn't pertain to this particular issue.

I later found that there is info about this in the manual. I just hadn't looked thoroughly enough.

HTH,
