problem with sound

Hey all --

Suddenly I seem to be having a problem adding sound to my video files.

I can no longer add ac3 or mp3 files. I'm using the cccp codecs. I've tried k-lite, but neither seems to work. The program just locks up.

Any suggestions?
I really appreciate this!

Thanks

Try the inbuilt encoder: does it work?

It won't accept the ac3 file. DWS freezes up when I try to ad the audio file. If I use a .wav file, it's fine & I can create a dvd w/ac3 sound. I just can't seem to ad an audio file that's ac3 already,

Note: This wasn't a problem 2 wks ago.

Thanks again

Remove the codec pack: that is probably your problem. There are often buggy codecs that upset other software in those packs.

I'll be damned!

That did it Devil. Thanks for your help!

DAMN. It's two days later and the problem has reared it's head again. This time I have NO codecs installed and the program will not accept ac3 files again. It WILL convert .wav's to ac3, but not accept the ac3 files.

H E L P !

Perhaps the ac3 source files are corrupted in some way?

I tried converting an mp3 file to ac3 & the app froze again. Don't think that's the problem.

MP3 has been known to create problems for some users.
Can you try converting a WAV file instead.

same thing -- no joy

I suspect it could be something to do with that codec pack - which although you have now removed it - might have caused some other form of corruption possibly changed or deleted some dll files.

Try Re-Installing DVDWS using the clean reinstallation procedure.

done...still no ac3 acceptance. I'm stumped

Dos the machine display any error messages.
Could you also check the Windows Event Log
