Question for anyone out there. I didn't know if this should go in the DVD forum or this one, so oh well.

Alright, so I'm making a DVDr and have the movie. But, I also bought the CD-Soundtrack and want to use some tracks from the CD in the menus I create for the DVDr. Problem is, the CD & DVD are at different volumes. You can't notice the difference on the PC really, but when I play the DVD I made on my standalone the menu music from the CD is so freaking loud, and the actual audio track for the movie is quiet as hell. So, is there a guide or can someone explain how to properly adjust the CD volume to match the volume on the DVD so when you play the sucker in your DVD player, both the Menu Music + DVD Audio Track are at the same volume?

I did a lot of looking around on the net and no one really explained a good way to do it. By the way, should I be using a gain to solve this or normilization? I'm not sure... Help me please. ;p

BTW, if possible I'd like to use besweet to do the adjusting since I'm most familiar with that.
