  • Encore doesn’t play 5.1 audio .

    Hi, yesterday I purchased the surcode 5.1 codec for Premiere 1.5. In premiere it works perfectly. In Premiere went to export/adobe media encoder/. A transcode settings box appears,

    Format: mpeg2 dvd

    Preset: High quality, VBR transcoding of DV content (max bit rate = 9), SurCode for Dolby Digital 5.1

    Video Summary: MainConcept Mpeg Video

    Audio summary: Audio format Dolby
    codec Surcode for dolby digital
    audio coding mode 3/2 (for the five speakers)
    Hit ok and it outputs the video.

    When I bring it into Encore the acs file plays in stereo, not in surround.

    I’ve looked in the manual,helpfiles, for both Encore and surcode and haven’t figured out what I’m doing wrong. Any help will be appreciated. It bums you out to pay $300 for something you can’t get to work.

    Thanks, Bill

    You’re not doing anything wrong. Encore does not play back 5.1 audio. But it does pass through 5.1 audio to the burned DVD.
