multiple audio files with dvdauthor

[minipol]

Hi,

i'm in the process of testing my whole setup for creating DVD's of my own movies. I converted my movie to m2v & sepearated the audio with Tmpgenc. Then converted it to ac3. I added a mp3 of the desired length and also encoded it to ac3.
Then in dvdauthorgui 0.9 i first added the m2v, then the moviesound and the additional soundtrack and some subtitles.
I then play the resulting VIDEO_TS directory with PowerDVD 5.
I expected both sound files to be mixed in other words that i could listen to them at the same time so that i would have background music while still hearing the original sound of the movie.
Now, it's there because if i switch audio streams, i can alternately listen to the background music or the sound just not at the same time.

So is this normal and will this turn up right when i actually burn it to DVD and play it on a real dvd player?
Or do i have to change something?

Thanks.

This is normal. If you want to mix audio use an audio tool like goldwave and make ONE audio track.

They need to be mixed together before adding them in DVDAuthor?
So if i understand correctly, those multiple audio tracks are for say if you would want for example english spoken audio and french spoken audio?

And correct once again.
