I was just wondering what my mistake is. I follow the instruction in the vcdhelp guideline converting avi file to SVCD. This are the following steps which i have taken :

1. Converting the audio to wav file and save
2. Open TMPGenc and go to SVCD NTSC (fps 29.970)
3. Insert avi file and wav file
4. Settings as per normal (as instructed in the guideline)
5. Check birate rate - 2340 (2520 highest)
6. Encode

(In my environmental setting >External tool, I have change Layer2 to use tooLame so that i can get better quality ).

During the process, I have no pop-up error message and i finish encoding the avi file to mpeg (or mpeg file). Went i try to play it on nero burner before i burn. The picture looks perfect but there is no sound. I wonder why? I read this forum lots of time and the main problem is that they did not change the audio to wav file but i did. Could anyone help me out with this problem...

One more question, do i need to change the mpeg file to mpeg2 file in order to burn SVCD? If yes, How do i change it (I'm not sure whether this is correct or not. Before encoding, load the template and double click SVCD or VCD if i want to do VCD and then start encoding)? How do i get the good or best template for VCD and SVCD? Could anyone please send my good or great templates to me? I have no template and afraid to play around the setting. Hope you guys will help me out

Thanks in advance
