I am so frustrated!

I have spent the last 14 hours trying to solve this one!

1. The project previews beautifully.

2. The main file, call it wedding.avi, plays beautifully under Windows Media
Player.

3. I transcoded the file and also created wedding.mpg which also plays
beautifully under Preview and Windows Media Player.

4. When I go to Build DVD Disc the program goes to work (in both cases) and
builds a disc but there is no sound.

5. When I created a disc using both files on another computer using Nero, guess
what? Disc created WITH SOUND.

Terry,

Tell us a bit more about the wedding.AVI & .MPG. How were they created and
what is the description of the Audio in these files. More details are better.

Which KIND of avi is "wedding.avi" ?

Gspot to find out what CODEC created a file

Both files were created with Premiere Pro 2.0. Could you help me with what you
mean by the description of the Audio (e.g., AC3?, PCM?)?

Thanks for helping this "over 65" get through this.

Terry.

To ensure that audio is heard, you should always avoid using MPG audio.
Stick to PCM 16 bit 48 KHz for the highest quality at the expense of space on
the disc, and Dolby Digital for a trade-off of quality against Disc space
savings.
Bluntly, 95% of people simply cannot tell the difference between DD and PCM (I
can, but that is another story) so unless highest possible audio quality is what
you are looking for, then stay with DD - and igf you are shooting from a
Camcorder, there are arguments against using DD as the source is going to be
poor anyway (most camera mics are close to useless IMHO).
MPG audio should be avoided as playback is not mandatory - in short, no player
in NTSC areas is required to decode it.
In PAL areas it used to be mandatory, now it is not.

What type of disc are you building? (PAL/NTSC)
What player have you tested on?
