    Audio "tone" on random AVI file after encoding

    I've read here on multiple issues that people have had with TMPGENC. I'm using DVD Author 3, and getting a strange error.

    I'm trying to make a DVD with 6 different AVI files. Each AVI is about 350Mb, and I drag all 6 of them into item 1 (because I'm lazy). I lower the compression until all 6 will fit onto a single 4.7GB disk, and burn.

    All works well. Videos look fine, audio sync is good. Except one of the files has no audio - just a "tone" all the way through it. All the AVI's test out as fine, and I've checked with the "GSpot.exe" program to verify that all CODECs are loaded properly, and they are.

    Weird thing is I've burned this DVD twice now. Same files, same order. The first time I did it, the 2nd video had the audio problem. The 2nd time, the 3rd video had the audio problem, and the one that was previously bad was fine.

    Could this have something to do with too much compression? That's about the only thing I see here. I'm lowering compression until just below the 4.7GB barrier, maybe I need to give the program more room? Though I can't understand how that would give this error.

    I can't see anything wrong with the AVIs - they test out fine, all play well in Windows Media Classic, etc. But I'm tired of making coasters.

    Anyone with any ideas here, appreciated.
