    hi, there!!!

    I am having problems converting a movie that has the audio stream AC 3 6 CH. I use avi2dvdand it cannot extract the audio file. it says:
    [9:13:40 AM] Start demuxing the AudioStream No.1 ...
    [9:13:40 AM] Demuxing of the selected audio finished successfully ! [C:\sahara\Avi2dvd_temp\Extracted_Audio.ac3 0 Bytes]
    [9:14:14 AM] Starts Audio correction ...
    [9:14:15 AM] Audio Fixed successfully ! [C:\sahara\Avi2dvd_temp\Fixed_Audio01.ac3 0 Bytes]
    [9:14:15 AM] Starts Ac3->Ac3 convertion ...
    [9:14:17 AM] Audio converted in Ac3 successfully ! [C:\sahara\Avi2dvd_temp\AudioStream 1 AC3 6CH.ac3 -1 Bytes]
    [9:14:17 AM] Job NOT Done. There are warnings ... Find at the log file the 0 byte generated file to focus where exactly the problem appears
    [9:14:17 AM] All Jobs Done !!!

    Is there something i can use to make avi2dvd see the audio file or other converter?

    please help me!

    There are couple of ways you can try to extract the AC3 stream of that AVI.
    You should, at first, do this:
    - open that AVI with VirtualDub
    - do File___File Information
    Post here what it writes about audio.

    The easiest thing to do (but I don't expect it to work) is:
    - open tha AVI with VirtualDubMod
    - do stream__Stream list__Demux
    Alas, if the AC3 is not 384 kbps, the program blocks.

    Otherwise, if the AC3 isn't standard (as it,probably), is, you can do:
    - open that AVI with VirtualDub
    - do File___Save WAV, but call the file 'audio.AC3'.

    If you manage to extract an AC3 stream, you've done. If not, post here again...

    thank you!

    Imanaged to extract the audio file with VirtualDub, but avi2dvd still wants to do it itself, so it served for nothing. from virtual dub file___file info I learned that the audio stream is compressed with ac-3 acm codec
    I downloaded, installed it and still avi2dvd does nothing. any other solutions? please
