adywan (or anyone else) - I've no problem with you using parts of this for your project.
Over the weekend, I've been testing out a DVD authored with mono PCM audio and the video taken from the official Region 1 GOUT disc. I'm pleased to say there seems to be no problems with playback at all - all three players I tested the disc on played flawlessly. My Dolby Digital receiver plays the sound from the front left and front right speakers, but turning on pro-logic processing forces it to play out of the centre speaker.
In the technical section, I've posted a quick guide if you want to make your own custom DVD: LINK (NB: Anyone requesting a fully-authored DVD will have their posts removed).
