Hey,
This is all related to what I posted a few weeks ago about ripping 5.1 audio and MPG-2 video clips from a DVD if any of you remember... in any case, let me tell you what I've done and what my problem is - I'm taking the VOB file containing the audio/video clip that I need and demuxing it. With the AC3 file I decode it to a 6-channel PCM wav file using Soft Encode by Sonic Foundry (confirmed that its 6 channels by looking at it in Cool Edit Pro). Now I have the m2v file from the VOB and the 6-channel WAV file. I then use DVD2AVI to make a D2V file that TMPGEnc+ (with MPEG-2 encoding) can understand and set the audio and video sources to the appropriate file (wav & d2v). The first thing that concerns me is that TMPGEnc seems to want to create 2 output files (an m2v and a wav file by the output file name format: F:\DVD\VTS5\DVD Clip.[m2v+wav]). I'd prefer it all consolidated into one .mpg file so I can burn it using standard DVD burning software. In any case, I hit the 'Start' button on TMPGEnc and get the following error message:
The error occurred when ACM was initialized.
I've tried moving the directshow priority higher (when I first searched for this error that fix was suggested) and it did nothing - I removed the audio file from the source and it encodes the video just fine, but that makes it essentially useless to me - Is TMPGEnc incapable of dealing with the 6-channel wave file? If so, any suggestions of software that will encode MPG2 720x480 resolution video and an AC3 or multichannel wav file to an MPG file would be appreciated - I'm a bit irritated that I'm this close to figuring this out and hitting this last snag!
Thanks!
