Hi,
After using DVD2AVI for over 6 months, I accidently deleted the files...heavens !!! So I redownloaded and setup again, but it seems different even though its the same release.
Heres the problem.
Before, when I used DVD2AVI, the first pass was the movie and it always seemed to second pass for the sound. Now it does it all at once. I am unsure if my sound settings are correct. They seem to work and TTMPG is all in sync...But I tend to like to stick with what has worked.
I have the audio set for
TRACK 1
Channel format AUTOSELECT
DOLBY DIGITAL - DECODE
MPEG AUDIO - DEMUX ALL TRACKS
48 - 44 - OFF
I seem to remember these as always being that way but NOT SURE. Its probably just nothing, but like I said, it used to two-pass, now one, so something is different
Thanks in advance....

No guesses here ??? Is it normal to have a single pass on DVD2 AVI and the two-pass was strange to begin with ??? How does it work for others ???

If you updated to the latest version of dvd2avi, it handles the sound a little differently. On dvd rips, the new version decodes all the various soundtracks, not just the to a .wav file, and does it in one pass. If you select to decode audio to .wav, I think it will still do the two passes.

I could be wrong here, but I thought that DVD2AVI would only do two passes if you chose the decode option, to convert to a wav, along with the normalize function.
DVD2AVI must take two passes to normalize the audio since it needs one pass to analyze the audio and determine the peak level. The second pass to scales the audio so that the peak is 95-100% of the maximum giving you the highest volume without distortion. I recommend you normalize DVD audio given that they are often quite soft. No version of DVD2AVI that I have used has taken two passes on the audio that was not normalized. However I could be mistaken. -
That makes alot of sense. I always normalize, so that's my frame of reference.
Thanks for the info.
