TMPGenc/DVD2AVI .wav file problem

[Nostradumbass]

I recently encountered a few movies (e.g., Magnolia and Titanic) which I can't process the .wav file extracted by DVD2AVI. I get the message "An error occured when audio is decoded." At first I thought I had accidently selected the DTS track but this seems not the case (judging by the bit 192kbps rate). I tried play the .wav file using Windows Media Player (even from another computer via a network connection) and got the message "The buffer is not big enough"

Anybody know what's going on?

you sure it's not a mpa file?

try to play it in WinAmp - it might have extracted it as mpeg audio -- you would then have to convert it to wav

give that a try -- if it does play in WinAmp double click on the info screen and it will tell you what type of file it is.

It won't play in WinAmp. File info box says its a PCM format, the same as it says for extracted .wav I can play. Humm.

try extracting the .wav again w/ the following settings on dvd2avi->audio section

channel format->auto select

dolby digital->decode

MPEG audio->demux

if these r the settings u use...then try not down sampling or normalizing and see if you encounter the same problem...

also, try selecting another track to extract the .wav from...
