Everyone tells me that AC3 or A.Pack is included with DVDSP. I must have a bad disc or something because it didnt install with the rest of DVD Studio Pro. I searched my whole computer as well as my application folder and its not in there. Anyway, I am wondering if there are any other ways or software to use to get the same compression to free up space on a disc. Right now my audio is PCM DVD Audio. I have about 40-45 minutes worth of Music Videos I need to put on a DVD and I am at 4.7 gigs used with only 5 videos. I still have to add 4 more videos to my disc and I am out of space! I am told the audio portion is taking up too much space. I know for my iPOD/iTunes, I converted the music files from AIFF to AAC. AAC compresses the audio in a way to allow me to have add more songs and take up less space on the disc. Would that work for audio to be used with video if that makes any sense?
