How do I get an ac3 to work with this program. When I try to burn it I get a box that says (DVDit supports Dolby Digital in stereo format. This file has to many channels.) How do I get it to burn ac3 audio or won't this program do it?
Thanks for any info

The AC3 file you are trying to use is more than likely Dolby Digital 5.1. DVDit only supports Dolby Digital 2 channel stereo. So you need to edit the audio and make it into 2 channels instead of 5.1. Either that or you should use another DVD authoring program that supports 5.1.

Maestro is my choice right now but I'd rather use Scenarist but it's alot more complicated. The problem with Maestro is that I don't/can't get a preview of the timeline.

Hi ! All,

I have just bought Pinnacle DC2000 with Imprision Full Ver. (with Dolby Support)

My Caputer file is Mpeg2 with PCM audio can I convert my PCM audio file (MPEG2 file) in Dolby format with Pinnacle Impresion 2.2
or I have to use some other software to convert my PCM audio to Dollby 5.1
Can Pinnacle imprision converts PCM audio to Dolby 5.1 automatic
Is there any Good Tutorial on Dolby 5.1 please help me out

Thanks.

I'm not sure I've understood your problem correctly, but you can enable previewing in Maestro if you install a compatible software DVD player. I use Cinemaster 2000 and I don't get the "no decoder found" or so error message.
