Thanks David. Can you give me a bit more detail on using avidemux(2) to convert to AC3? I did not see that option in my version.
PS - The reason I want to use AC3 is because the dvd player in the truck
will not play a pcm stream. I tried my ford and a buddies crapsler and
neither will play the sound track. Video is fine, just no sound. Plays fine
in my home players.
Use avidemux 2.036 (I think the later ones are still a touch buggy)
Open the nuv file. It should say 'this looks like mpeg do you want to index it' say yes (!)
It then pops up a dialog asking about the audio - always hit 'scan file for audio stream'
It'll tell you what you've got in there (I get mpeg audio with a shift of 79ms. Remember the shift)
It then pops up another box to say 'we have a shift of 79ms between audio and video'
Hit OK
You can now edit out adverts. I assume you know how to do this? ask if not
You won't be touching the video stream so ignore the options on the LHS under Video.
Under audio:
* select FFm AC3
* hit configure and select the audio bitrate you want
* hit A Filter and tick the timeshift box and enter the time shift you saw earlier - but negative. I use -79
* hit A Process (it sticks in)
[avidemux will pass the audio and video streams through, untouched apart from cutlists, unless you turn on 'A Process' or 'V process']
Under Output Format select Mpeg A+V Now hit save and save the file as film.vob. It's now ready to be dvdauthored...
