Ive got a movie split into 2, it has a 5 channel ac3 file split into 2, i cant for the life of me add them both to 1 movie, i mean my movie is split into 2 parts, if i add CD2 then CD1 to the same line its all lined up and perfect, if i try to do the same with both ac3 files itll only use 1 ac3 file and want to replace the other,

any ideas on how i can do it? i tried joinin the ac3s via besweet but it threw up "cant find a SYNC" error or something of the sort,

thanks

Why can't you just add each asset to it's own movie timeline, and link the end of the first item to the beginning of the second, using the connections window? I've done this many times in the past, and it works very nicely. There was even a recent post, by Trilight, on a workaround for consistent chapter navigation when you are re-authoring a 'flipper' disk:

*generally*, there is not a significant playback delay/pause at the intersection...

i'd take a guess that it would be almost equal to a dual layer break.

Guess that would depend on the Dual-layer break strategy (i.e. opposite or parallel).

or do we measure it by how long it took you to reply?

In Maestro place your two video assets on a movie timeline then with a blank audio track right click in it and select create Sync audio track then add your two AC3 files.
