HL, do you have a Hex editor? I know than when I've turned my 2-channel recording into a 6-channel recording, I have to go in and change the WAV header. It sounds to me like the header information might be messed up.

Do the individual wav files sound okay by themselves? Do you have a Hex editor? After you edited your files, did you save them at 44Khz or 48 Khz?

Hardcore Legend, please turn on your PMs.


Yes, each individual WAV plays fine.

No, I don't have a hex editor, and even if I did I am not fimiliar with the process. The source for the 5.1 audio comes straight from the new dvds released today. When I encoded the wavs, I matched the bitrate and quality from the soundtrack to the dvd files as to not have problems when I mixed the two files into 1 mono wav. The files are at 48000 khz, 768 kbps and 16 bit mono. Two problems I have run into are not being able to remux them into an AC3 and then when accomplishing it through a batch, it is sped up and only at 300 someodd kbps. I want to preserve the quality for the audio and video. I made no conversions or re-encodes and kept everything at the dvds standards.

I had Adobe Premiere 6.0, but it turned into more of a hassle than a help. Video quality constantly had to be re-encoded down for it to handle it, the audio output leaves something to be desired. However, the transitions and filters are nice.

My PMs are now on. I thought I had switched them on before. Probably explains why I never got PMs back EVER from people I sent them to.
