View Full Version : Using LPCM WAV audio source?

I will soon encode a movie from VOBs, it uses LPCM audio and is 91 minutes in length. I want to make a 2CD XviD rip, and I am familiar with encoding and GK and all of that. My problem is that this is the first time I will be using LPCM WAV as my audio source, and the demuxed file is 998MB in total. It imports fine in GK, and everything is going ok but when I get the video totals, it gives a value of 395193KB (386MB), and this is totally unacceptable. I will not be doing a direct stream copy with VDUB, I am converting the audio to MP3, so how should I calculate this? What values should I use if I want two ~700meg (certainly no bigger than that) files?

edit: I did a test encoding of a minute long clip, the video source is 640x480, entered 60000 as my video length, converted the MP3 as 48kB/sec and everything worked as expected, I just need to know a proper formula or specific video value now. The total clip ended up as ~57MB.
