Poor Audio Quality On Audio Dvd - Buzzing Accompanies Voice

[JohnKieffer 1]

Hey all,

I am trying to make a simple Audio DVD.

 

I put in all of my audio, and I used a custom setting to max out the bit rate. I have tried both using and not using the dynamic range compression.

 

But no matter what I do the Audio stream ends up with a buzzing noise that accompanies the Audio (it's spoken word audio).

 

My copies are fine, I have tried different audio's to see if that would change things, but nothing.

 

Help me please, I would really appreciate any help on this.

 

Thanks,

John

The bit rate slider is irrelevant in a Music DVD because that only applies to the video stream. The audio settings are referred to as the Data Rate. You can have Dolby Digital (AC-3) at various rates and you can have uncompressed PCM at various rates. If you choose PCM do not choose a rate that is greater than your source. PCM is higher quality audio than Dolby Digital.
