ac3 --> wav = won't burn

[farmer dan]

I first started by ripping one of my cd's and using Plogue Bidule created 5.1 wave files. Then I used BeSweet to convert these to ac3. I finished the project I was working on then decided I wanted a CD to play on my entertainment system. Following the guide at Doom9 I created six-channel wave files from my ac3 files. (I had deleted the other wave files.)

Problem: If sample rate is 44,100 I get nothing but static on any of my players. If the sample rate is 48,000 none of my burners recognize the file type. Here's the BeSweet log:

This one gave me static, but burned.

I can listen to this on my PC, but it won't burn.

The errors I get range from "unrecognized file type" to "can't read input files." I've tried five different burners including Nero, Creative Media and Winamp.

Just trying to listen to a CD in 5.1

From ota help:
"-fs force a sample-rate value
this bypass BeSweet's engine for determing the sample-rate of input files, and sets is manually"

ota don't resample, use ssrc instead (or Belight).
