It's "AC3: 0 (x80)"

I don't know what it might be. I have compared it to clips that do
work and nothing is different that I can see except the Select Stream
is x81.

I should have been more explicit. I import the clip from DVD using VRD
which then allows me to edit the size. I then export it which causes
it to undergo the same thing as happens when you separately use
QuickStream Fix - at least it displays the same dialog windows.

Then I play the MPG in WinDVD and there is nothing wrong with it.

Wouldn't we expect that because I edited the clip?

How would I notice any changes if they did occur?

I just installed TDA last night.

Thanks for your assistance. I am about to blow MF4 off if TDA works as
well as you indicate.

I am actually not that big of a DVD author. All I wanted to do was
collect a bunch of short movie clips onto one DVD with a simple menu
so I could watch them when I wanted. After years of successfully
editing MP3 files with SoundForge I did not expect to run into massive
problems with DVDs. This industry is still rather immature compared to
the audio industry.
