i'm hopeing someone can offer some advice .. i did some searching but coundt find the same problem

ok i have 6 mono 16bit 48khz waves ... i made them into a mux file basicly

X-FL.wav
X-C.wav
X-FR.wav
X-SL.wav
X-SR.wav
X-LFE.wav


i encode this into ac3 by doing

BeSweet -core( -input "C:\BeSweetv1.5b29\6wav-to-ac3.mux" -output "C:\BeSweetv1.5b29\audio.ac3" ) -ac3enc( -b 448 ) -6ch

... now powerdvd sees it as a valid ac3 ( and it directly sends signal to spidif out ) , and more inportantly , maestro seeis it as valid and shows the correct legenth ...
BUT playing the ac3 in either powerdvd or from maestros preview gives me digital squeel over my speakers .. i know it's reciving the correct 44.8khz , the orginal wavs are 16bit and the command line looks good for besweet ... also any ac3 ripped from commercial dvd plays fine in both powerdvd and maestro ...

any ideas?

i dumped the files to my webserver if anyone wants to see if thier is somthing i did thats boneheaded

-ac3enc( -b 448 ) -6ch
wrong

-ac3enc( -b 448 -6ch )
correct

corrected batch file , same problem ..

of note .. this


"C:\BeSweetv1.5b29\BeSweet.exe" -core( -input "C:\BeSweetv1.5b29\6wav-to-ac3.mux" -output "C:\BeSweetv1.5b29\6wav-to-ac3.ac3" ) -ssrc( --rate 48000 ) -ac3enc( -b 384 )


is from the gui ... gives the same digital noise though :( ( changing from -b 384 to -b 448 didnt help either )

ok it was somthing rather dumb ... the orginal wavs were saved in microsofts pcm .. i.e. compressed ( default wav format for adudition ) .. once i converted ton uncompressed wav it's ok now. :D
