AFAIK, the only file noad *writes*, is marks.vdr, which does not contain AC3 data. vdrsync is a possible culprit, but it may also be a data error due to rain, etc. > because i have tried to demux the .vdr's with ProjectX and the AC3 causes no problems with mplex. > The DVD i've created with ProjectX was not playable in my Standalone DVD nor with VDR's DVD-plugin. > > The question i have is: > Is it currently possible to burn vdr-recordings with AC3 sound? > And how do i do this? I have burned vdr-recordings with AC3 sound using the burn plugin successfully. I have not actually checked the AC3 sound (the DVD was a gift for someone else who does not currently have AC3 equipment), but at least the creation of the DVD did not crash. Carsten.
