    Audio on PC but not on standalone dvd player.

    Ok I have read this topic and this is kinda the same problem I am having,

    Talk about DVD authoring and editing, including support tools such as PgcEdit, MenuShrink...


    I am converting Xvid .avi files over to MPEG-2 compliant dvd files using TMPEG-enc and outputting in .m2v and .mpa. (I have even tried other avi formats as well with no avail)

    Once I have them I am using IFO Edit to make my vobs and then nero 6 to burn my dvd.

    I have a Sony & JVC standalone dvd player that can play dvd+r disks(which I am using to burn my movies).

    On the Sony dvd player I get video but no audio. And I have tried switching audio settings on both my dvd player and reciever.

    On the JVC I get both audio and video but it will play for about 2 secs then skip back a sec then do that for about 30sec total and then actually eject my dvd disk tray.

    I have gone thorugh and tried other programs to encode and author the dvd but I get the same results on all. I just want to make a menuless dvd out of my movies.

    Also I dont know why but IFO edit makes vob files and such but for me to burn as a dvd so why when I play it in both dvd players does it says its a MPEG-2 DVD. Retail dvds only show as a DVD, so how come this shows as a MPEG-2 DVD? I know the vobs were created from a mpeg-2 .m2v but arent all retail dvd mpeg-2 videos as well? Please correct me if I am wrong or tell me if it matters or not.


    Thanks.

    You are correct in that DVD's are MPEG2. Why your player is defining a difference I'm not quite sure.
    Are you puting everything into the VIDEO_TS folder and burning that with an accompanying empty AUDIO_TS folder onto your DVDR in "DVD compatible" mode in Nero?
    Are you sure your standalone accepts what you're using? Is it + or -R?
    Lastly, are you using a named brand of media?
    This isn't a learning curve ... this is b****y mountaineering!

      Yea everything is going into the VIEDO_TS folder in the dvd compliation when burning in NERO. nothing goes into the AUDIO_TS folder. It is empty.

      Both DVD players will play -r/-rw & +r/+rw

      I have tried Memorex, TDK, Fuji Film, and Phillips.

        "Once I have them I am using IFO Edit to make my vobs"

        Try using "TMPGEnc DVD Author" (different than "TMPGEnc") or DVDLab instead of IFOEdit to author...

          I have tried both programs to create the dvd and both of them produce the same results.
