Dear Everyone, THX for all your help so far, now im cracking my head with Sony Vegas because there is so much settings just to create a Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound (AC3). So i was wondering what setting do you guys use when creating the ultimate Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound (AC3) with Sony Vegas ?? Please Help me, & THX Alot Very Very Much, i really appreciate it !!!

I usually take a MP3 & Convert it to WAV using CDEX v1.51, then i open the WAV in Sony Vegas & Set the Vol. to 12db then Render as Dolby Digital 5.1. Thats it.

but if the source is stereo and u make it dd5.1....i dont see a point to create it.....just wasting ure time dude

how if i use the front left & front right file for the surround left & surround right also, are there anymore setings to do ??

So my wav file size is 41.7mb i convert it to Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround using Sony Vegas, and now the AC3 file size is 5.67mb is this correct ??? please answer.

Yup, that size is right since WAV don't use any compression, hence it's big.

I extract one of my anime series (25min length), i get 100++Mb wave format. It normal u get a huge size. When u convert, it actually compress the wave into a smaller file

then, everyone should be sharing AC3 & not share MP3 !!!

Hmm.. i think AC3 will be bigger than mp3. Just my thought

Surcode DTS Pro v1.21 can make DTS for DVD Video & it's superb in sound !!!!!

What is the Speed i should burn a DVD Video at ??

the slower the better for burning, put the minimum

Why do you have to convert to WAV? if you want 5.1, just render it out in Dolby Pro Logic 2 then you will have 5.1

Can you teach me how ?? please.

If ur source is MP3, I see no reason to upmix it to 5.1, waste of space only
Its best to use back Stereo and use the decoder to output it using DD Pro Logic 2 to 5.1 instead

And in CDEx, you have the option of not converting it to wav then to your desire format
