How to add audio

[rlinsurf]

Okay. I have saved my video out as an .m2p file. However, I still need to get the matching audio in. How do I do that? And what format should I use?

 

EDITED: Well -- learning as I go.

 

.m2p's have the Video and audio portion included.

 

However, I am told that NTSC DVD's must have either PCM or AC3 audio included to be legal. Will EMC encode the audio portion properly -- or what should I do.

 

Also -- is anyone there? I haven't received an answer to any question I've posted here.

Thanks, guys. Much obliged.

Good grief!!! Folks aren't hanging here waiting for you to post.

 

If you are going to burn that video to a DVD, why on earth are you outputting it to a .m2p file? And, what video are you talking about? Is it a production that you made in VideoWave?

Sorry

 

I actually encoded the original file in ProCoder and outputted as an .m2v file along with .wav for the audio. I'm using ProCoder because this file was originally a Mac .mov file, and needs some standard color correction which ProCoder offers. I was told that EMC can't handle .m2v files, so I asked them (Canopus) what format I should use instead. They suggested .m2p.

While EMC can't use the file while it has the .m2v extension, if you just rename it to .mpg it will take it. But then, it wouldn't have the audio, so you would need to add the .wav file also, which then you may have to adjust them to get them in sync agian. You could just try renaming the .m2p file to .mpg and see if it EMC will take it.

Hi, Larry--

 

When I looked at the add movie dialog, it does list .m2p as one of the supported formats. I guess my question is, will EMC encode the audio portion properly (so it will play in all DVD players), if the audio is part of an .m2p?

 

And how would I add the .wav?

 

All My Best,

Jeffrey

MyDVD defaults to AC3 stereo so any disc created should play in most DVD players.
