Dolby Digital Audio Settings

[egproductions]

I frequently burn SD and blu-ray DVDs for clients. I export out of AME and author the DVD in an old version of encore. I usually exported a demuxed dolby digital out of adobe media encoder so that encore wouldn't have to spend the time transcoding.

Recently Adobe media encoder offering a lot of extra settings for dolby digital than they did before. I really don't understand them and was hoping someone could offer a better explanation of what the settings mean and how I should be using them. When I tried playing around with them I wound up with really quite audio tracks.

I'm not a Dolby expert so I can't answer the question directly. I can only suggest that with these settings, if you don't understand what it's for and how it works, then don't touch it. The defaults should work fine.
