NEVER use this encoder - it is a back engineered hack job that cannot reliably produce DVD compliant output. It will also fail Dolby Labs logo testing.
Additionally, do NOT use dithered 16-bit files either.
Stick to 24-bit fixed, and you will get a better result.
When encoding for DVD, you should be automatically in the correct format.
What encoder are you using, as a matter of interest - not all arecreated equally, and you should be using one listed at
Dolby - Licensed and Approved Dolby Digital Professional Encoder Manufacturers Each of the following companies manufactures various types and models of Dolby® Digital professional encoder products, including both software and hardware encoders. All
to ensure proper compatibility.
DD/AC3 is not free technology, it is licensed, and BeSweet/FFMPEG and the ilk are all hacks.
