Please bare with me.
This for a PAL 25fps DVD to SVCD.
I did my normal source ranging in Tmpge to put my movie onto 2 discs. I chose a point near the middle where it switched scenes.
I wrote down the mms and how many frames past the last full second.
eg 48:35 and 02 frames (02 being out of 25)
Proceeded with my normal encode of the movie. No worries.
I then loaded the Directors comments wav file (produced by DVD2AVI) into Cool Edit wav studio. Cool Edit gave me the option of changing the time scale to SMPTE format (hh:mms.frames) I choose 25fps
I found the same point that the movie was cut by Tmpge, 00:48:35.02, and selected the wav up to that point and saved it.
I went back into Tmpge and selected Audio Only (ES), loaded the new wav chose 224kbs and hit start.
When it started encoding it showed a lot more total frames compared to the frame number what was shown when Source Ranging the actual movie.
That was problem No 1
I muxed the new directors comments MP2 file with my disc 1 MPEG2 movie file.
I played the SVCD in my stand-alone and I was able to switch audio tracks between the primary and the comments audio. Great, but, the comments audio played much slower than the primary.
After a few minutes it was lagging the video by 15secs.
That was problem No 2.
Ideas ?
thanks

Its hard to tell what is causing the problem but its probably cool edit. If you choose to use this method, than just use TMPGenc's source range to set the length of the audio. Don't bring in 3rd party applications unless you have to. Basically, set it to video only and do the encode and then select audio only and encode. The spot in source range won't move so it will be the same for both.
I really think source range only makes things harder. I much prefer to encode the entire video to an ES stream, both audio streams to ES streams, and then multiplex them all in bbmpeg with an output size set to 800MBs.
When you go around chopping things in half and trying to get all the parts to sync up, that's where you usually run into problems. -
I didn't realise I could do just the audio whilst keeping the source range the same as the video.
The only way I can think of to do that is to do my normal encode via the wizard. (I like the bit rate calc in the wizard)
When that is done, the settings are transfered to the main Tmpg window. Normally the Stream Type options are greyed out.
Use the Unlock template to free it up then choose audio only but with a new audio file in inserted and hit start.
Does bbmpeg allow you to cut the movie on a transition ?
Thanks Adam
