Re-encoding audio kbp rate?

Author
Time
Hey all,

Here's what I'm trying to do. I have a 5.1 track that needs to match up with the same kbp rate as the rest of the DVD. The rest is 384 and my smaller files are 448. Is there a simple way to re-encode to 384 to match up or do i have to go through the trouble of splitting up the 6 wav files and re-encoding and all that?

Use the GUI program that's available for it and it's a piece of cake to do.

I really can't stand BeSweet. It NEVER works for me. I think i need a step by step tutorial from someone actually here because even the ones online don't even work for me.

Have you been trying with the commandline or the very useful GUI? (AC3Machine)

In any case, this should work for you once you amend the path of BeSweet & names of the source/destination ac3 files:


"C:\BeSweet.exe" -core( -input "C:\Source.ac3" -output "C:\Destination.ac3" ) -azid( -c normal ) -ac3enc( -b 384 -6ch )

I have no clue what you just said.
