I followed the guide above (how to properly encode...) to encode a 2-channel, 48000kHz WAV into a 192kbps AC3 2.0 file, using Acid Pro and the 5.1 plugin.
However there seems to be a problem with the output file:
DVDAuthorGUI says the .ac3 file is unrecognisable.
VirtualDubMod says it's not a valid AC3 file.
Headac3he says it doesn't have the correct header.
DVDlab will load the file and doesn't complain, but it seems to be about 1 second too short. (The original WAV was exactly the same length as my MPV file).
PowerDVD and my standalone both play the authored DVD, and the audio sounds fine, but it is out-of-sync.
I previously tried encoding a short 1 minute sample, and although I got the same error message from DVDAuthorGUI, the muxed vob from DVDlab was in perfect sync.
