I'm about to give up!I have a Sony DV video camera which takes wonderfully clear videos.I've put many hours into trying to get these videos onto DVD+RWithout major loss of clarity.I've tried MGI Videowave and Sonic MyDVD which capture/encode and burn but the results stink-worse than VHS tape.Finally I used TMPGEnc to encode MPEG2 from AVI which I captured with MGI Videowave.I then used DVD-Lab to produce and burn and the results were great visually but the audio is all messed up.When I bring the files into DVDlab from TMPGE it forces me to transcode the audio to the correct ? frequency (It says that the 32.0khz.Mpeg2 file created by TMPGE is not suitable for DVD and must be transcoded to 48kHz.) so I follow the instructions and transcodebut the result is garbled sound.Anybody know what I'm doing wrong.I know that some people suggest processing the audio seperately but I think that is going beyond my abilities.
Not an expert, but you could try virtual dub to get the correct freq wav file from the avi, then just re-encode the video only in tmpgenc dont use the wizard, then use dvdlab. Its a pity dvdlab dosent except avi files. There are quides pitted around for virtual dub here and on dvdrhelp.com also for tmpgenc. This should just leave you with a wav file and mpeg2 video file. Though I do think the tmpgenc can just create a separate sound file as well, Hope this helps as i have not used tmpgenc for a while.
