can't get video and audio together on mpeg

hey Jackie

what is the ultimate purpose for your file?

i ask bcz you might want to produce a transport mpeg rather than a program mpeg.

the former is a muxed (audio + video) that is primarily used for web deliverables and VOD, which compressor cannot do.

the latter would be considered a elementary stream files (raw) that you have to mux using a different program.

so i have to know what you are going to use the file for, since there are many posibilities here.

so you need elementary stream files, bcz DVDSP would mux it for you.

ok, just use compressor and create 2 files, one for the audio and one for the video.

of course i am assuming that you are using compressor 2. when you select a preset, you can set video and audio. make sure its dolby (2.0) if its stereo.

if you have compressor 1, then use compressor only for the video and use A.Pack for the audio.

both of the above mentioned methods will provide you with 2 files, a video file with the extension *.m2v and a audio file with the extension *.ac3.

both of these files can be imported into DVD SP.
