Question about EncWAVtoAC3

[Proxx]

Hey guys!
I'm new here, wondering can I ask question here about EncWAVtoAC3 soft?
Looking for command help as the program is not exiting after done by -x key.
I have written few .bat scripts each has a task, the EncWAVtoAC3 is in the second script it must encode 6 .wav channels to AC3 with certain preset config and after done exit automatically, only whenever the EncWAVtoAC3 is closed the third script starts (mkvtoolnix muxing).
My little script for EncWAVtoAC3:
EncWAVtoAC3 -p E:\Multimedia\Temporary\misc\ws\pre-ready.bats.and.config\p\prs.presets | EncWAVtoAC3 -x
EncWAVtoAC3 starts and encodes fine but not exiting as a result the third script is not starting automatically...

Thanks in advance

Can't really answer your question, but is there any reason to use EncWAVtoAC3 instead of Aften directly?

Would be greatful if you could give me a link on how to use aften directly from CMD.
Thanks

BTW, use:

Aften -longhelp

to obtain the sintax, with last version http://code.google.com/p/wavtoac3encoder/downloads/detail?name=aften-git-20091226-icl11_1_054-win32-bin.zip there are some changes:

[-exps #] instead [-fes #]
and new
[-chconfig X]
[-ch_X file] (to accept monowavs for input, used by wavtoac3enc)

Well, I guess I've downloaded new version that you've implied, my first syntax to test was:
Aften -b 640 -ch_fl
E:\Multimedia\Temporary\misc\ws\del\chs.L.wav -ch_fr
E:\Multimedia\Temporary\misc\ws\del\chs.R.wav -ch_fc
E:\Multimedia\Temporary\misc\ws\del\chs.C.wav -ch_lfe
E:\Multimedia\Temporary\misc\ws\del\chs.LFE.wav -ch_sl
E:\Multimedia\Temporary\misc\ws\del\chs.SL.wav -ch_sr
E:\Multimedia\Temporary\misc\ws\del\chs.SR.wav
E:\Multimedia\Temporary\misc\ws\del\audio.ac3
I will definitely use some more option to make things right.
Thanks again!

Hey guys!
i'm bringing back to life this post , because create a
new one for only one question is pointless.
i've some troubles to create
a .bat file using EncWAVtoAC3. I've 6 mono wav files that i've puted in
a list file (.ext) . My idea is that i want to convert it to ac3 , so
one speaker plays one track. (5.1)
So here is the CMD command (which
doesn't work) :

EncWAVtoAC3.exe -f list.ext -p pre.preset -o test.ac3
-x

It doesn't work because EncWAVtoAC3.exe asks me the input files.
But there are in the list.ext...
I think i'm missing something.

Thanks in advance for your answers,

PS: When i'm using the graphic
environnement , everything works perfectly.

Seems don't work this EncWAVtoAC3 option.

Use Aften directly like was explained in previous post's.
