I assume that you have media that supports both Data and Video right? Surprisingly you can buy spindles that don't.

DVD-R and DVD-RW
DVD-R/W was the first DVD recording format released that was compatible with standalone DVD Players.
DVD-R is a non-rewriteable format and it is compatible with about 92% of all DVD Players and most DVD-ROMs.
DVD-RW is a rewriteable format and it is compatible with about 76% of all DVD Players and most DVD-ROMs.
DVD-R/W supports single side 4.7 GB* DVDs(called DVD-5) and double side 9.4 GB* DVDs(called DVD-10).
These formats are supported by DVDForum.

DVD+R and DVD+RW
DVD+R/W has some "better" features than DVD-R/W such as lossless linking and both CAV and CLV writing.
DVD+R is a non-rewritable format and it is compatible with about 87% of all DVD Players and most DVD-ROMs.
DVD+RW is a rewritable format and is compatible with about 76% of all DVD Players and most DVD-ROMs.
DVD+R/W supports single side 4.7 GB* DVDs(called DVD-5) and double side 9.4 GB* DVDs(called DVD-10).
These formats are supported by the DVD+RW Alliance.

Sorry if this thread was dying, but I'm curious.

with Tmpge, how would one go about encoding the audio to PCM? My DVD Player handles mpeg-1 layer 2, but I wanna be on the safe side.

well, aside from necroposting with a topic that had nothing at all to do with the original....
I assume you read the guides right?

This will take you through step by step and help you set up an awesome vid.

I already apologized for the 8 day necropost (OMG).

And I should of specified that my post was refering to this post

Just out of curiosity, did you encode the audio to AC3? Some players are picky about what the audio is encoded in... as far as I know, most players will support AC3 and PCM... but MPEG-1 Layer 2 audio isn't fully supported by many/all players (which is what TMPGEnc will encode the audio into).

As for the guides, I've familiarized myself with them along time ago, they only cover the mp2 and mp3 portions of the encoding. AD's guide mentiones PCM but doesn't cover on how to apply it to mpeg2 files when encoding with Tmpge. If it does...and I've happened to overlook it..by all means please correct me.

okay, sorry for the overreaction.

I found this, hope it helps:

You can't multiplex a standard MPEG with wav audio. MPEG video only accepts MPEG audio unless you are creating a DVD and using DVD authoring software.

Next time you encode select CBR MPEG audio in the wizard not PCM, but for now just load the wav into TMPG in the audio field then select audio only then encode.
This will then produce the right audio format and THEN you can multiplex with the video

I also found this thread on the tmpfenc site:
