  • “error”when creating DVD NTSC

    Posted by Matthieuje on March 7, 2007 at 11:53 am

    Dear all, I do not manage to create a NTSC DVD with Adobe Encore. The PAL version worked fine but the NTSC is creating me problems. All files are NTSC mpeg + audio wave + subtitles. The process starts normally with transcoficating the audio, and then “general error”.
    Any idea about what I should do?
    Thanks and good work

    Your problem is almost certainly using NTSC type MPEG audio, which is an optional stream & cannot be used as Audio stream #1 in NTSC.
    You should change this to either Dolby Digital or PCM.
    Be warned though that transcoding MPEG audio to Dolby Digital will inevitably introduce not only quality loss, but artefacts as you will be perceptually encoding a file that has already been perceptually encoded.
