    Hello,
    I just got my PC back after getting a new HD installed. I've reloaded DVD Lab but when I try and load a sound file it wont play and i get a message saying i have no AC3 support installed. I've noticed there are a few AC3 tools here, I'm just looking for the basic codec that will let me play sound. Anyone got a link or something please?

    thanks

    I loaded up the AC3 filter and while I can play AC3 files in other programs (so i know that filter is loaded and working) in DVD LAB I am still getting no sound when i preview the movie. This may be normal, I'm not sure. I haven't tried burning a disc yet, but I would like to check the sync of the video to the audio first.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Media Player Classic can do this for you. Load both video and audio and play.
    Moreso, under the Play menu, item Audio, there is a tool to adjust the audio delay that I find very useful to set exactly the ms on real time playing.

    Cheers

    DVDLab does not have audio preview at all. DVDLab Pro with Pro Extensions will let you preview audio, but again it is not built into the regular prog.

    Don't know why it's not prominent on MediaChance's DVDLab Pro page!

    You might also be interested in the DVDLab Pro Forum at http://www.mmbforums.com/phpbb/viewforum.php?f=24

    it's the best place for advice on DVDLab plus official news.

    Hope this helps.
