Dave,
Yes, stacking up the tracks can work if you need to do that, but I'm
a bit confused on how the bit rate calculator let you know your audio
volume was too low.
You may be confusing audio tracks with audio streams. As you
increase the number of tracks in your project, you aren't increasing
the number of streams on the DVD. I'm assuming you are just using a
stereo mix, so all of your tracks will get mixed down to 2 tracks
(left & right) before exporting. What are you using to convert your
Premiere project to mpg files?
