Hi everyone,

After following the afterdawn guide and successfully burning my first DVD I have 2 questions!

1. When I analyse the file with AVICodec it gives me the video ratio as say 2.21:1, so when I use tmpgenc, instead of the 1:1 VGA should I be using the ratio given to me by AVICodec?

2. If I have Dolby 5.1 and extract it as an .ac3 file, when I go to encode avi to mpeg2, it makes a .wav file still of 1.5Gb and then the video is only 2.54Gb. As I am using .ac3 which is only 439mb, could I up the video bitrate in tmpgenc to make the video say around 4Gb?
Or is there a way to just encode the video at the desired percentage of the DVD, as it seems a waste to make that 1.5Gb .wav file, if I'm using the .ac3!

Sorry if these questions seem a bit newbieish, but I just don't have the foggiest! I did post this thread to the Newbie forum, but no one replied, so I thought I'd try the experts :D

Thank you all in advance for your help!
