Only Commentary, no other audio - TMPGEnc DVD Author (problem)

[chingow]

I'm only getting commentary and no other audio on the mpegs when I try to author a dvd.

I used shrink & decryptor on a DVD, burned the dvd to a DVD+R, now I'm using TMPEnc DVD Author and it changes the DVD to mpegs, when I play an mpeg in Windows Media player it plays the movie but only with the commentary & no other sound. In Shrink I thought I unchecked the commentary box to save space....when I play the burned, unauthored DVD it is perfect with audio.

Can someone help? also, should I give up on this software? what is the best software available, I mainly just want to create a custom menu, and change up the chapter timing.

Thanks.

Instead of using TMPGEnc DVD Author to convert your DVD to mpeg files, why don't you try 2COOL's great trick: rename your DVD files from .vob to .mpg extension and then test them for audio again. By doing that hopefully you can isolate where the root of the problem is

I've read good things about DVD Remake Pro for reauthoring. Also consider DVD Rebuilder if you want to re-encode the content to fit on an DVD-5 with the best quality.

Yep, that's what I was gunna suggest. DVDRMP is not free but is bloody good. Dimad supports it brilliantly. Get it from the link in my signature.

I can't believe that worked (VOB to MPG), it looks like the files are all there, the original movie & then commentary version. It looks like TMPEncoder just isn't giving me the option to choose the right VOB.

I'll check out DVDRMP & Rebuilder, thanks for the suggestions.
