DVD-Lab Pro sound problem...Help please!!

[Jonas_Vedder]

Hi people..

So I have a problem here with DVD-Lab Pro!
A few days ago, I authored a DVD using this program, and I did some menus and I put music in those menus. What I did was convert some music files in mp3's to wav, so I could import them in DVD-Lab Pro, because it doesn't support mp3! But after authoring the DVD, I watched the final result in a standalone DVD player, and I noticed that the sound that I had put in the menus, was very bad..if I increased the volume, the sound would become very noisy!!

Why does this happen? After converting mp3 to wav, I hear the .wav file and it sounds okay, like the mp3, but after compiling the project in DVD-Lab Pro, I don't know what it does to the sound from the menu, but it stays very bad..

Anyone knowing what might be wrong?

Make sure your audio files are 48khz, and normalized before importing.
AC3 would probably help too.
LPCM .wav is not the best format.
I use Audacity, Goldwave, or Soundforge to extract audio (from avi), then (if necessary) convert to AC3 in ffmpeggui. It's only 2 chan stereo, but it's free. Dolby 5.1 audio converters are seriously expensive.
