audio problems

[everest53]

I'm new to this so maybe I posted this on the wrong forum so I'll post it again here. SORRY.

I am pretty new to this but have figured out how most of the core software works and what it does. I have been converting my avi divx files to VCD and what I do not understand is why sometimes my VCD gets a high pitch digital sounding beep that get louder and more frequent when the sound level increases? None of the DVD's that I have ripped myself have had this problem but MOST of the avi's I have converted do have this problem. Here is what I am doing.
1. split the avi into 2 and re-encode audio to 224/44.1/2channel in virtualdub
2. open avi's in TMPEng and set video preferences (23.97, 352x240) and save to mpg
3. use nero to make VCD.

What am i doing wrong?

"so no one esle has ever had this problem?"

I guess not.

I can see nothing problematic in the procedures you've detailed.

What you haven't stated is whether this problem occurs when playing back on your PC, or standalone player through a television, or both.

the problem only occurs on the TV... not on the PC. It seems to me it must be something with the bit rate or something in the audio but its just really weird. It happens with some movies but not all

It's probably related to the quality of the television speaker(s).

Just as an experiment, try re-doing one of your "problem" VCDs setting audio to 192Kbps and video to 1,182Kbps.
