    Which takes more room, dolby digital or mpeg audio? I have a DVD that is 1 hour and 55 minutes with a video bitrate of 9.4 mbps and dolby digital with a bitrate of 384 on a dvd-5. I made a DVD with space greedy PCM audio and only got about 1 hour and 40 minutes. Which should I use next time Dolby Digital or mpeg audio?

    I am guessing here, but I assume this is from a ripped DVD. If so, stick with the audio that you have (Dolby Digital). Alternatively MPEG audio works fine too. Just dont use PCM (oe wave) audio. All it does it take up disk space.

    AC3 is compatability is guaranteed in the US (and PCM). MP2 works on maybe 90% of the players (any that do VCD/SVCD). MP2 works by default in PAL land. If you have the AC3 stream, keep it. You can encode PCM to AC3 with tools in the tool section.
