DVD Workshop 2 Audio problem

Archived from groups: rec.video.desktop (More info?)

You need to click the AUDIO tab - during the EDIT button step - and
check the option to CONVERT TO DISC TEMPLATE.

Then - when you arrive at the BURN PROJECT TO DISC menu - during the
FINISH button step - you need to adjust the project encode settings in
Ulead DVD Workshop 2.0 to precisely *match* the *video* properties of
your source clip so that the video won't be unnecessarily re-encoded.

Hope this helps,
