Activity Forums VEGAS Pro Render to Dolby Digital Pro AC-3

  • Render to Dolby Digital Pro AC-3

    Posted by Kirk Smith on September 5, 2010 at 4:48 am

    Everytime I try to render to dolby digital pro ac-3, it doesn’t work. It says that I need DVD Architect installed, but I have it installed. I am using the most recent version of Vegas (9.0 e), and the most recent version of DVD Architect (5.0 b). Why the heck can’t I get this working?! It’s driving me crazy, I’m trying to make a BluRay with 5.1 audio and both DVD Architect abd Encore won’t work with 6 channel WAV files.

    Is there something I’m supposed to do to activate the ac3 plugin? When I go to view “About Vegas Pro,” and go to the Components tab, I see ac3plug.dll, but it says Not loaded. What do I do?

    Have you registered your copy of DVDA with Sony?
    If all else fails, try re-installing it and see if that solves your problem.

    Both installations are registered, and I’ve already tried reinstalling both applications.

    Sounds like it’s time for an email to Sony Tech Support.

    It doesn’t ask for any key, it just comes up with the message saying that I have to install DVD Architect Pro in order to use that render format.
