TMPGEnc DVD template, can you change audio bitrate?

[Hulk]

I'm using the latest version of TMPGEnc and noticed that you can't change the audio bitrate from 384 when using the DVD template. Is there a way around this?

What are the essential setting to create a DVD compliant (ie MovieStudio will accept) video file?

384 bit rate for the audio seems excessive.

Just go to Setting/Audio and select the bitrate of your choice from 64 to 384. I've found 192 or 224 more than enough.

From there you can Save a new DVD profile with a distinctive name (ex: DVD_NTSC_224 etc.) so the old one is preserved.

When you select the DVD templace the bitrate drop down box is greyed out. I copied the other settings to a blank template and then the audio bitrate is available.

Thanks.

Hmmm......

Using TMPGEnc Plus with the DVD_NTSC profile loaded;
