Audiodub problem

[breadbasher]

I've recently downloaded Mulholland Drive via the Donkey and followed the "How to author from beginning to end" link as I've done several times before with no problems. But this time Audiodub informs me that "The requested audio compression is not compatible with the input format. Check that the sampling rate and channel count of the requested output". I've checked this out and the file info tells me that there are 5 output channels on the .avi. How do I get the .wav file that will be compatible with the mpeg I wish to achieve for burning to vcd?

thanks in advance

you can either load the avi in virtualdub, and then set audio to full processing mode, and save wav, and use this wave as audio source when you encode--either with your video in TMPG or something else, or encode the video only, use the wav as source to encode to .mp2 using BeSweet/GuI or something else, and then multiplex them using TMPG or BBMPG
or, you can get avi2vcd and load the decompress program to decompress your avi and use that as your audio source when you convert with video at the same time.
hope that helps
