It worked for me to use mencoder to reencode the audio as ac3 and then
multiplex the video and audio back together using mjpeg-tools:
for f in $@; do
base=`basename $f .mpeg`
mencoder "$f" -idx -oac lavc -lavcopts acodec=ac3 -ovc copy -o
"${base}.avi"
mplayer "${base}.avi" -dumpaudio -dumpfile "${base}.ac3"
rm -f "${base}.avi"
mplayer "$f" -dumpvideo -dumpfile "${base}.m2v"
mplex -f 8 "${base}.m2v" "${base}.ac3" -o "${base}.vob"
rm -f "${base}.m2v" "${base}.ac3"
done
--------
dvdauthor had no trouble with the .vob's created by this process.
