    Is there a setting or a box I need to tick. Every time I convert a wav to ac3 or vice versa I get a crackling noise track. Where am I going wrong??

    Hi imbatman,

    Check out ffmpeggui for WAV -> AC3.

    I've not needed to do AC3 -> WAV, but check out the audio tools and have a look through the guides - I'd be surprised if it's not there...

    If your wav file is 2 channel (stereo) -- just make sure you encode to ac3 2 tracks, not 5 tracks.

    Sorry, yeah - I should've mentioned that ffmpeggui is for 2 channel stuff only.

    ffmpeggui do not produce fully compatible ac3 files, while Soft Encode do.

    Strictly speaking W_Eagle is correct though, from what I've read, it would seem that the AC3 produced by ffmpeggui isn't acceptable to only a few Pioneers (mostly older models I believe).

    Or, put another way, it is acceptable to pretty much everything else.

    You'll find details under the ffmpeggui section in "Tools" - Read and decide.

    Either way, good luck.
