and believe me, your name came to mind numerous times while writing this guide....but honestly, i've never used your scripts to burn DVD-A discs (i use strictly Macs when it comes to stuff like that), so i couldn't comment on anything about it in the guide...BUT, i would like to add a Windows side to the guide rather than you all (PC users) having to find similar programs as the ones mentioned in this guide for Macs....so, please PM me or email me or something if you have any input as to what you think i should include for Windows users...
i've read many of your posts and know you're one of the most knowledgeable people on here when it comes to audio stuff, so don't hesitate to give me your thoughts...i'm definitely including you when i get to the Windows side of the guide...
and thanks for the comment...as of right now, 171 downloads...it sure picked up after mentioning the 100th download yesterday...

plain old?? come on...plain would have been a Word document...
yeah, i thought about putting links to the programs i mentioned in the PDF, but being somewhat lazy, i just put 'all free programs can be found on versiontracker.com' at the bottom of the programs page in the guide...
next revision -- links!

i've been receiving a few questions through email from members on here, so hopefully everything is going well in the DVD-A world...

DVD-A disc yet, I’ve read that others have had success with them.

rimz,
I just noticed this over the weekend. I tried using Max for .flac conversion. When I checked the conversion file afterwards, it listed each artist in a folder like in the itunes library. I removed the .flac files from the folder and placed into DVD-Audio. Everything went fine until I tried to play it in the car. Message said "format" and it ejected. So I don't know if the files have to stay in folders or not.
I was going to use Switch but the trial period was over and it would not let me convert to flac. I now have to buy it (which I think I will).

I read page 2 but i gave it a try
I tried with DVD-R and it worked great for me. Sounds great.
I have one more question. How do I convert mp3 to get 5.1 channel / dts sound quality? (i dont know if we can really do it?). I am new to this sound stuff
Thanks for the help

yes, i definitely recommend the Adobinizer... ...BeSweet, even though with a GUI, is a little difficult to grasp for first-timers...the Adobinizer is much easier to comprehend, so if you didn't have success with BeSweet satisharas, try Adobeman's app...
and you're not hijacking anything Adobeman...i welcome all input in this thread, even if others might call it hijacking...
...if i see some good info, i'll include it in the next revision, so keep posting your ideas...

and success with 1 DVD-R (thanks to rimz)yest night i tried to convert mp3 -> 5.1 wav and written a dvd using SOLO my Acura reads the disk but it just plays a noisy sound.
now my DVD Audio Solo is expired i need to buy it (i will).

It's a process to convert 2ch wav files to a 6 channel wav file. It also adds some effects to do pseudo surround. But as rimz notes you will need a tool to burn the 6 channel files like Cirlinca DVD Audio Solo (Windows too).
