No audio when creating DVD with menus using TPMGENG, DVD-lab

[albertaa]

When creating DVD menus using TMPGENC or DVD-lab, the DVD plays in my DVD player without the audio. When I play it on the computer it plays fine. If I use Sonic MyDVD it plays fine in the DVD player. However, I don't want to use Sonic because it is too limited. TMPGENC and DVD-lab must do some type of audio conversion differently from Sonic. Does anyone have any clue what's happening here?

What format are your source files? What audio codec?
Is the source separate streams, or a muxed mpg?
Are you importing the audio and video both into the working area?

You probably recorded the audio at a non supported rate for DVD specs. Audio MUST be 48k, not 44.1k as in VCD. SOme players will not support MP2 audio, so that may be a problem also. Use LPCM or preferably AC3 (DD) audio at 48k only for DVD in NTSC format. PAL users can use MP2 also.

Do you know how this is done with DVD-lab or TMPGENC? Or, is there another tool that can be used?

If your audio is not 48khz, DVDLab will prompt you to transcode it.
You may have better luck extracting the audio as .wav, encoding the video, then muxing them in dvdlab during authoring.
