I have a Pixies concert I snagged off alt.binaries.hdtv. It's 1080i and is in native transport streams. So far, I've been able to successfully convert the *.ts files to a huge (RE: 1080i resolution) mpg with the audio multiplexed into the file. After that, I'm able to convert the 1080i mpg to a standard resolution DVD-compliant mpg using TMPGenc Xpress.
The problem I've run into is that the audio doesn't come with the video (multiplexed or otherwise). I tried exporting the audio from the 1080i mpg using Womble MPEG Video Wizard but DVD Lab won't use the audio file for some reason.
Am I doing this right? Is there an easier way to downconvert 1080i content to a DVD-compliant mpg? I'd really like to seed this as an authored DVD on Dime since I'm pretty sure most people would be up in arms if I uploaded a 15 gb folder full of *.ts files. Any help is appreciated.
