Hello Steven,
If I understand you correctly, you are saying that using B frames will
result in less player compatibility? And Richard suggests dual prima
motion estimation is causing less player compatibility. So I guess it is
best (compatibility wise) to both turn off B frames and turn of DPME (-

Thanks, that is a very useful Howto, I wis
Hi!
I have an AC3 Stream which makes mplex 1.6.2 abort with this message:
**ERROR: [mplex] Can't find next AC3 frame: @ 46904832 we have 959d -
broken bit-stream?
Is there a way to fix the stream (possibly by replacing the damaged
parts with silence or clicks&noise) ? a52dec decodes it w/o probl

Yes, that's a good start, but it doesn't answer if hardware encoders (like
DV cams) do that, too ;)

Yes. My HOWTO below is outdated, i'll post a newer version soon.
AC3 should work fine, if you use reasonably new software. I'm creating
all my DVDs with
