Help with reencoding

I don't know why vDub does that but why do you reencode? That warning message is just a message telling you that the audio is VBR, which normaly isn't a bad thing. Check out in this matter. In any case, you shouldn't reencode the audio, if you want to do anything just use the original AC3 and encode this.

I have to reencode to add substation alpha script file, since gordian knot doesn't support substation alpha :( Maybe I should just take the time to learn all the processes myself and skip gordian knot alltogether. Thanks for the above link to the vdub page.

Hi- The whole idea doesn't sound too good to me. You know that you can just keep the SSA subs as they are and play them along side the video, right? So assuming you have some overriding reason for hard coding them into the video, then you also know that reencoding the video will result in degraded video quality, right? And you also know that by hard coding the subs into the video, the video quality will be even further degraded, right? So, assuming that you still want to do this, first strip out the audio with the Save WAV command in Nandub and rename the extension as .mp3. Then Direct stream the video in Nandub without the audio. At that point you'll have a VBR MP3 soundtrack file and a video file with no audio. Reencode the video with the SSA subs, and when done mux the .mp3 back in with Nandub.

Thanks for the help.
