AC3... again

[oldiexyz]

Hi specs,

I know know, this maybe the 1000th repetition of this question, but I didn't find any usable answer...

I'm trying to encode 5.1 audio in order to put it as an audio stream on a DVD. The sound is available in 6 mono waves, 16 bit, 48 kbps.

Using Digigram's Multichannel Encoder (an older version (1.1.2.1) from 2001), I can create an AC3 stream, but this isn't accepted by TMPGenc (fur multiplexing) or TMPGenc DVDAuthor (for authoring) as a valid file.

Using BeSweet, I don't know how to feed the six files into the ac3enc module; using the multichannel encoder of Adobe Autition to produce an interleaved 6 channel wavefile leads to a file that cannot be understood by BeSweet or the AC3Machine...

I know it must be simple, but what am I doing wrong? Any clues?

Thanks!!

I.

If I am understanding you correctly, you need to split your 6 channel wav into 6 mono wavs, which can be done with BeSplit. Then create a mux file to feed these to BeSweet. Please read the BeSweet FAQ #31.

Hi KpeX,

in fact, I guess my English isn't the best, as I *DO* have the mono files already... but your hint about the BeSweet FAQs did it! Using a .MUX file I'm getting what I want.

Thanks again!
