Help - Soundtrack in Maestro still menus

[eckloss]

greetings...

having one problem...when trying to add a soundtrack to my dvd menu in Maestro, all i get is white noise once it's compiled. Using a single frame .jpg as the menu graphic, and have taken an .mp3 audio file and tried converting it to both .wav and .ac3, with no success. suggestions?

thanks!

Have you made sure the audio was resampled to 48khz?


Arky ;o)

actually, yes. i get about 5 seconds of white noise, then silence. i'm sure i'm just missing something simple.

Heres what I do to add sound to my still images and I have never had any problems. I open the sound file in Soundforge, trim and vol adjust then save as 48khz wav file. I then open this file in Scenarist ac3 converter to get ac3 file. Import this file into Maestro and drop it on top of the bitmap menu and choose loop in the options. Its always worked for me. If you press the video monitor button you see your menu with the audio playing
