Determining length of audio wrong.

[PINOBIRD]

Hi, I am doing an AVI2DVD conversion with D2S.
Everything goes fine except for the Determining length of audio.
It gives a value of 3418.118 seconds while it should be 5739.680 seconds.
This is not a problem for the movie because the authoring is good.
And the movie plays fine on my standalone.
The only problem is that the chapter and subtitle creation stops at 3418.118 seconds.
So no subtitles after 55 minutes.
The source contains AC3 so I did not convert the audio stream.
I have tried to run it through Wbias no errors.
I am using the small DVDauthor app. in D2S
Is there a way to edit the audio length value D2S gives?

Have you tried the information in this sticky?

Yes I know, but hat's not the problem the audio plays fine the whole movie through..
It's just the cut off of the subs that's bothering me.
Maybe someone came up with a quick solution.
When I load the fiiles from D2s in DVDAuthorgui it works flawless.
I just like the automate proces wich D2S has. :)

I'd suggest the avi you converting has been joined and the AC3 does NOT join cleanly, causing your problem. Try demuxing out the ac3 with VirtualDUBMOd, then runing the ac3 through BeSplit/BeSliced to "fix" the ac3,. Rename the file to Encoded_Audio_1.ac3 and copy to (& overwrite existing file) your working folder. Then do a D2S Recovery starting at the Muxing stage.

Thanks, I 've tried the Virtualdubmod trick.
It makes no difference, but it does correct the audiosync problem I was having with this AVI.
The chapters in the DVDauthor.xml are like this chapters="00:00:00,00:05:00,00:10:00,00:15:00,00:20:00,00:25:00,00:30:00,00:35:00,00:40:00,00:45:00,00:50:00,00:55:00" />
When I modify this XML to the end of the AVI chapters="00:00:00,00:05:00,00:10:00,00:15:00,00:20:00,00:25:00,00:30:00,00:35:00,00:40:00,00:45:00,00:50:00,00:55:00,01:00:00,01:05:00,01:10:00,01:15:00,01:20:00,01:25:00,01:30:00,01:35:00" />
When there after I run the authoring commandline, the movie is perfect.
Thanks again ChickenMan.
P.S. stay away from the bird flu ;)
