Hi

i think i found a little bug.

I use DVD2SVCD not just for DVDs i use it also to convert dvb stream, which are in
the .m2p format. I do this by using an DVD .ifo and renaming the .m2p file to .vob.
Now the Problem is that the demuxer of DVD2SVCD, which is used in the
"Extracting Audio" step, makes a demaged .mpa file, that can't be converted. In
1.0.6 Build4 the result was that the .m2p was shorter than the original .mpa. In 1.0.7
Build 1 is the .mp2 file just a few kb because Besweet aborts afer a few seconds.
My solution for this problem i abort DVD2SVCD after the audio is extracted, del the
.mpa form DVD2SVCD and use an .mpa, which i get if i cut the original stream with
Vitec Clip MPEG-2 Pro. Than i just do Crash Recovery and everyting goes right an
after DVD2SVCD is finished i have a perfect SVCD. This bug apears with uncutted
and cutted .m2ps.
Perhaps u can fix the bug which leads to the demages .mpa.
I already tried to rename the .m2p file to .pva and use PVA2SVCD but this didn't
work.
Another solution is that i rename my .mpa file [the one from Clip MPEG-2 Pro] to
.mp2 and let DVD2SVCD used this for muxing in bbMPEG. But this can just be done
if the original audiostream is "good" for my SVCD. Perhaps u can insert an option in
DVD2SVCD, so that u are able to say DVD2SVCD that it shouldn't do audio
extracting and audio converting and just use a particular file for muxing in bbMPEG.
In order to save time, if u have already an "good" audiotrack for the SVCD.

thx for u work @ DVD2SVCD, it's great and sorry for my very bad english ;)
