hey everyone.

Im new to encoding SVCD and this is probably a simple problem that someone knows the answer to so here goes.

I extracted the DVD movie to my hard disk, created a dv2 file in DVD2AVI, extracted the audio as (*.wav) using VOB2AUDIO (this sounded aboslutley fine).

Opened all this into TMPenc tried to follow the DOOM9 tutorial as much as I could. Some of the settings were locked so I couldnt change them. (note I tried this with & without toolame). Encoded the whole movie twice and each time it ended up like this - <sample>

shitty video! (http://homepage.ntlworld.com/craigweb2k/pro.mpg)

I mean at each time the audio was like this... really tinny like the movie was being played in a tin can. I dont understand why because the audio in the wav sounds fine. I mean I even went so far as to unloack the settings and encode a bit at 48khz.. and I wish this was compliant because that sounded allright.

Please, someone tell me what I am doing wrong :(

Join the club bro. Ive read alot of posts like this and the only thing I can really suggest is to run your .wav through a program like Soundforge or some other type of sound editer.

I have this prob too, not on all my movies but some. Ive really just learned to live with it, the ones it does it on arent really that bad anyways.

48khz for SVCD does play on most DVDs, it's just that the sound is as bad as when you play a file converted to 44.1khz on your PC. I think there are tools available that do proper conversion to 44.1khz (unlike Tmpeg)
