CapableMetal's encode synchs exactly (as far as my eyes and ears can tell me) to msycamore's m2v.  I made an AC3 in Aften because Mainconcept choked on the FLAC, but it seems to have come out a bit loud relative to a "proper" 5.1 AC3.

That's likely due to the source. The audio on the discs is louder than a commercial DVD and I deliberately left the volume levels as they were on the discs so people could hear the mix complete for themselves with minimal processing. Perhaps a cut of a few dB might be better these DTS tracks to bring it to a more 'standard' overall level.

A few people seem to be struggling with the FLAC, which has surprised me because I've never had any trouble with it. I'd have uploaded it as mono WAV's if I'd realised it was going to cause such problems, I was just trying to keep the seeding time down because my upload speed isn't great ;)

Nice to hear it synchs up with msycamore's m2v file, I made my synch source to match up with the reel change frame numbers, sounds like it worked a treat!
