  1. I seached other topics on this forum dealing with that issue but I didn't find any answer...

    So here's my problem: I've got a really good quality AVI file: about 670 MB for a 49 minutes movie. I wanted to burn it on DVD.
    I did some research on dvdrhelp.com and on the internet to seek the best solution and it appears to be this one: creating two separate files, a m2v file for the video stream and a wav file (or mp2 if you want MPEG sound -- but I don't want it) for the audio stream, then remux the files with a DVD authoring software and burn the DVD. Well, it's not as simple as that.

    Here's what I did: I extracted the audio stream from the AVI file using TMPGEnc, so now I've got a big WAV file (about 535 MB) compatible with DVD format. I then encoded the video using TMPGEnc again, and I've got a big m2v file (about 2.7 GB -- I wanted the best quality possible).
    After that I tried to remux the files using MPEG Tools in TMPGEnc but obviously it doesn't accept WAV files as audio streams -- and I'd really like to keep the WAV quality, if that's possible.
    I tried to do it using IFO Edit, with the "Authour new DVD" option. The multiplexing process went good and pretty quick (15-20 min. or something). When I tried to read the VOBs newly created, audio and video streams were TOTALLY out of sync, and it looked like the video skipped lots of frames without apparent reason. I checked the IFO files in IFO Edit and the video format is good (PAL, 25 fps), audio is ok as well.

    Did anyone have the same problem? Did I do something wrong and how could I solve this problem??
    Thank you very much in advance for your help.

    PS: I checked IFO Edit forums and I did not find any answer either.

    Before extracting the audio with virtualdub - have you made sure you have no bad frames?

  3. Yes I did: no bad frames have been reported in VirtualDub. The AVI file plays totally fine in Windows Media Player but the VOBs are just acting weird...

  5. Actually I didn't try with MPEG sound, because I wanted to keep the WAV quality.
    Thanx for the suggestion, I'm gonna try multiplexing the m2v file with a mp2 file and see what comes out.

    I think it kinda sucks that you can multiplex m2v + WAV files in TMPGEnc...obviously it's the same with IFO Edit...Maybe it only works with AC3?

    PS: yes I checked with mp3freeze...
