Re: Warned not to use MPEG audio by replication house
by Trai Forrester on May 16, 2008 at 6:09:00 pm

Hi Everyone,

Out of spec AC3 streams causing silent playback and even discs not to play is an issue occasionally out there.

Fortunately, I use the MEI DVD-Video Verifier here at the shop on every Image that arrives here. One of MEI's modules is an AC3 audio verifier; it nails problem streams every time - even in DVD Studio Pro Tracks where they've been added improperly. Because it's not just that the stream itself needs to be compliant, but the authoring system should be checked that it multiplexed everything in properly.

This week has been a particularly rough one for several good authoring studios I've been fortunate enough to just meet and work with (replication troubleshooting jobs); and it's underlined what I've known for years - any studio that sends discs out to market without having the MEI test run to assure the DVD's spec compliance, is taking a great risk.

Take care,

Trai
