No sound

Is Avisynth unable to process the audio-part of a mpg(2)-file ?

I'm trying to get this work:

+ Receive digital SatTV via Pinnacle PCTVSAT card
+ Output mpg-file is o.k. for TMPGEnc or MediaPlayer
+ Pass this file to AVIsynth (no error message)
+ Open the stream with VirtualDub or MediaPlayer
- VirtualDub / MediaPlayer show video but no audio
- same problem when trying to convert any DVD-file

System: WindowsXP, 256MB, WinDVD MPEG-Player installed

Thanks for any help
:(

Nope it's something I am DYING to have! I really want AudioServing from Avisynth BAD! Currently you have to extract the compressed audio file and convert it to a wave file and use the command AudioDub in the Avisynth script WHICH SUCKS!

Thank you ! I'm going to start waiting with you and many others for the audio.
The only thing I'm needing this for is to simply cutting out several comercials from a mpeg2 TV-recording. VirtualDub would be perfect for this.
I'll have to keep locking for another alternative cutting application.

I wish to use it to create .avs files that I can use to make fake anamorphic squeezed SVCD playback on my TV card to my widescreen TV. I can do it but I get no audio at present.

You can still use virtualdub to do this. I use an ATI AIW 128 to capture mpeg-2 files. Then I frameserve it into vdub with sound, using the audiodub command. I cut the commercials and the process the audio into a new wav file. Then I make a vbr lame mp3 of the audio and encode the video in vdub. Finally nandub the two together. :)

It is a little tedious but I am making a script that will hopefully help a lot. :p

Hope this helps,

PS I encode my videos into divx4, but if you want them in mpeg2 you can frameserve into tempg or other programs.

That's fine for encoding. I just want to be able to playback SVCD's directly from the CD with no extraction whatsoever. I found a plugin that lets me do that 'Elecard' from within Media Player but it's not that great. For encoding I would like to see a BeSweet plugin for Avisynth scripts. That would give awesome quality sound encoding on the fly. It would slow down the video encode somewhat though and there is the risk of sync issues. I dunno maybe the current method is still the best.

Thank you TelemachusMH - I'll try your way.:)

Nevertheless I've started to create a programmable application that will do all this managing of these different tools and file-name handling. I'd like to hit only ONE button ... and some minutes later VirtualDub opens automatically loaded and ready to work on the input (audio and video) files. Can Scripting do this also ?

[TelemachusMH]

I would like my script to do that .. but I can't do that. I am making it mainly to encode tv shows So I have to cut commercials and I also am using you the divx4 sbc so I have to edit the log files as well, but even with these, it will make encoding a lot easier. :) Also just as extra infomation, I am writing these scripts in perl and I can do all the things I need with the audio and video.
