TMPGEnc: No sound during edit

[LT. Columbo]

something ain't right. can you post the screenshot of the error?

There you go...

[LT. Columbo]

that is exactly how mine looks. when you proceed with the software this entire screen pops up at you?

NOTE: MANUALLY click "BROWSE" and select a definite destination for the output file on that screen.

Basically the software works fine with no pop-up or error message, except there's no audio during edit. My gut feel is that TMPG only wants to work with its own AC3 filter.

[LT. Columbo]

well that can't be true since i have never used it. did you manually select a destination folder?

[a529612]

How do you manually ask TMPG look for the AC3 file?

[LT. Columbo]

what i meant was select the destination output folder because if wrong it WILL give an error, but you say you get no errors.

to manually select audio input is below the video. you are using source from a DVR which i have never used since i don't have a DVR. this could be the problem here...

Should I output the AC3 filter files where the TMPG folder is?

[LT. Columbo]

don't know what you mean here

I mean where should install the AC3 filter? Should I pick the TMPG folder or use the "default" location?

Yes, but other than that I don't understand why it's not working.

[LT. Columbo]

neiher do i. maybe it has something to do with the recording....

can you provide file information from one of the vob files?

Do you think it's related to the lack of dedicated sound card on my setup? I tried editing a regular ripped 1:1 movie DVD but still no sound. What file info do you need?

[LT. Columbo]

what are you using to play back the outputted dvd folder from DVD author? and how are you doing it? you should be using media player classic (free)
