Eye TV and Toast 8 Audio (Is it fixed?)

[jeoyramone]

For the longest time I have been having trouble getting the proper audio tracks to my dvds from EyeTV. 5.1 audio usually gets mixed down unless I am very lucky. Have had a few workarounds in past, but I am wondering if anyone has had success with the new version.

When you say multiple audio tracks, I assume you mean the main audio plus a SAP. If that is the case, you should be able to click the edit button on the EyeTV file in the Toast Video window and a pop-up will appear to allow you to select the audio track.

anyone actually use toast 8 and eyetv and get the 5.1 with stability?

I use Toast 8 and EyeTV 500. I just burned a DVD and it keep the 5.1 AC3.

 

I don't have any HD content with multiple audio tracks, but the SD content I have with a SAP can be selected in Toast 8.

Which EyeTV do you have?

 

Toast 8 offers users the ability to choose which audio track will be burned to DVD from sources that have multiple tracks. Select the title in the video window and click Edit. There will be a button in the next window to select the desired audio track. There is not an option to choose more than one audio track.

I am using EyeTV 2.3.3 with my EyeTV 500. Many recordings have multiple audio tracks which Toast handled inconsistently in version 7. I wanted to make sure that feature you spoke of worked on the transport streams with multi audio as the are captured by ETV.

I have the EyeTV 250 so I don't have the option for multiple audio streams. However, I have added MPEG 2 clips from DVDs with multiple audio and observed the option to select which audio stream to use in the authored DVD. I believe it will be the same for you.
