Hi. I thought someone said before that you can add separate titles that is VCD standard? Well, I have one movie that I made DVD standard and I added that to TDA fine.

Then I have 4 trailers that are all in VCD standard. When I added, TDA popped up an error saying that it\'s not DVD compliant and that it won\'t add them to the list.   What should I do?

I didn\'t want to create a new thread just for this so I\'m posting it here. I wanted to test an AC3 file on my DVD player so I selected a scene using Source Range in TMPGEnc Plus that contains the most surround sound. I selected the DVD template and converted it to M2V (I selected ES Video Only). Then I went into VDubMOD to demux the source AVI\'s sound and saved as an AC3 file. In TDA, I opened the M2V file, then in the next screen, I selected the AC3 file.

The problem is this: the sound and the video don\'t match. The sound is for the entire movie, meaning 101 minutes long. While the video is a scene I selected in the middle of the movie. When I play my DVD+RW, the video plays and then the sound starts playing from the beginning, not the part of the movie which I have selected. Why is this? How do I do it otherwise? I just want to test and don\'t want to waste 2 hours right now to convert the entire movie.  :?

I didn\'t understand your latest post so well!

You selected the part of the video you want to encode in TMPGEnc Plus and encoded it using only video. The you demuxed the audio and made it AC3 and then added it in TDA.

My question is, how the hell do you expect this thing to work? You have a part of the video file only and the whole audio file. Think about it!

Sorry.  :oops: Here is my situation:

My source AVI file has AC3 sound. I first demuxed the sound and saved it as an AC3 file via VirtualDubMOD. Then, I went into TMPGEnc Plus and used \"Source Range\" to select a portion of the video. I selected \"ES Video Only\" and the output is an M2V file. Now, what I don\'t get is how to get the AC3 file to be the right area and length for the M2V file?

It\'s for testing the surround sound so I converted the video that has the nicest battle scenes. It\'s just that I have to get the sound in that scene only and not start playing from the beginning. Am I making sense?  :?:

How do you chop the audio and video together? I thought TMPGEnc cannot take AC3 sound?

I was also wondering, what\'s the difference between TDA\'s separate tracks and titles? By titles, I mean the clips you can have in each track. Also, I have a concert I want to add to DVD and I want them to play continously without stopping to press anything. Should I be using the tracks or the titles?
