Thanks Theo!
So you basically render them completely separate and import both files to the DVD?

Hi Jon,
Most of us render video and audio as separate files, which get exactly the same name (apart from the extention). Both files are placed in the same folder!!!
In DVDA, you only import the videofile. The audio file will follow automaticly (if the are in the same folder and have the same name).Theo

Theo, thank you for being so helpful. Right now I rendered to: DVD Architect 24p NTSC Widescreen video stream template under the MainConcept MPEG-2 type for a regular DVD burn. What do you suggest I change the video part to in order to burn in HD to Blue Ray?

It depends. If your footage is HD and you have a full HD TV + BD player, I would just make BD. But if you are making the disk for someone else and you are not sure whether he/she/they is/are HD-proof, I would just make a normal DVD.

What is the purpose of rendering in two files? I render video in MPEG-2, and the template “DVD-A stream”, and if you go to “custom” and “audio” you can check “include audio stream”. Seems to work okay for making a DVD. What am I missing?

This is to prevent that DVDA will re-encode the audio to AC3, which leads to loss of quality.
