Aften vs Besweet vs Super vs AC3Fix vs working

[awesomer]

I'm trying out DVDAuthorGUI and it complains that I need to use ac3fix on one of the .ac3 files. AC3Fix does absolutely nothing at all (literally). Besweet did the same thing. I tried regenerating the original .wav and ran it through both Aften and Super (again) to see if it was either of those. I got .ac3 files, but DAG still complains about them. Weird thing is that DAG doesn't complain about the .ac3 file for the main movie, but it does about the smaller video files's .ac3's and the main movie's audio was processed through Super or Aften (can't remember which), too, so what gives?

There was an error in one of the video/audio streams. If you are using ac3 audio, make sure that it is without errors by running ac3fix on it. (https://www.videohelp.com/tools?tool=AC3fix_GUI) Please review the log for more detailed information.

What bitrate are you using? Perhaps you are using too high or too low of a bitrate?

Also do the bitrates of the two files match? You can't mix 2.0 256kbps AC-3 with 2.0 192kbps AC-3 etc. unless they are on different ... oh I forget the term now ... VTS "branches" if you know what I mean LOL

They are all 384kbps. I put them all in Super and did the info thing to check and they all have the same info except for the file sizes.
