Audio Flickering sound - VS10 Trial

[Mike-Mat]

I'm creating training videos from a DOS application. The plan is to output the DOS screen to a DVRecorder via S-Video. Then I burn it to a DVD and now I've imported it into VS10. All that is good so far.

Here's the Problem
===============
I placed the video on a track, select "Clip" and hit play & the sound is great. If I play the "Project" it has a flickering sound. Like there's a helicopter in the room. There is nothing else on the time line except this one track.

Thanks,

Mike

Equipment:
AMD 64 3200 CPU w/ 1GB Ram, Nvidia FX5600 PCI w/ 256MB, 300GB SATA, XP SP2, Sound is the onboard AC97.

DVRecorder: Toshiba RD-Xs52 w/ 160 BG Drive DVD-R & DVD-Ram.

The Original DVD drom the Toshiba sounds great. Audio is crystal clear.

I have found that in preview mode, what you see is not always the greatest quality, but upon viewing the finished product all is good. Maybe the same applies to audio in some instances. Can you finish a small portion of your project and see if it still sounds the same?

We'll see soon if it's ok or not. I'm also concerned about the video quality. The inital capture looked great. But on the screen in VS10 the image looks fuzzy. I made 3 seperate test projects and I'm merging them together as I might do for a training disk

I dont understand how to edit the menus yet and I assume the full package comes with more menu choices.

I think VS10 will do what I need. I understand it's released now ( but not available. what ever that means). I would like to download a fill ISO rather than several different downloads.

As I said in my previous post, the quality of the video in preview mode is not the greatest, especially if your settings are for Instant Playback. That is why I suggested doing a test burn, preferably to a RW disk, to check to video and audio qualities.

Did you fix your "helicopter" sound problem when viewing the project?

I notice that if I create an output file using the mpeg sound instead of regular "dolby" (ac3), and then I import the video, it works... strange...

perhaps the dolby plugins is not working that great in vs10

Please let me know if you find the answer

Unfortunately, I have discovered the same thing. I was using Dolby at 256 kbps and would get some popping now and then. I thought I had fixed it by lowering it to 224 kbps, but the problem still remains. Using LPCM audio I do not get any "noise".
