        Close, but not quite.

        If you specify '-b' to mpeg2enc then it is likely that you'll also
        need to specify '-r' to mplex and take into account the audio plus
        overhead.

        As was mentioned earlier you probably want to be using '-f 8' anyhow
        if the end result is going to be a DVD disc.

        If you're using MPlayer to play the output of mplex then it is possible
        that you're encountering the probley with the default MP2/3 audio 
        decoding.   Some versions of gcc miscompile part of mplayer and the 
        symptom is corrupted audio playback.   The workaround is to use
        '-ac mad' (assuming  you've built mplayer with the libmad routines
        from http://www.underbit.com/products/mad/

        Hmmm, does the .wav file play correctly and is it at a 48000 sampling
        rate (which is required for DVD)?  I think mp2enc will automatically
        downsample to 44100 unless told otherwise - and 44100 is not valid
        for a DVD.

        That's the only thing I can think of at the moment.

        Cheers,
