i will check out all of those links. thanks
btw, i singled out each section of the sequence and pasted into a new sequence and they all worked individually. but as soon as i put them together, or split it in half, the error came up. not sure why..it didnt single out one file as corrupted. it just cant handle the larger volume. its only a 19min sequence.
i compressed the audio in sections and ill try to lay them side-by-side in dvd studio pro. hopefully they will line up properly.
thanks for the help.
