Tip: You can use the multitrack structure for creating language options, for example.
First, define a multi-audio track for each language and assign all tracks that belong to
a certain language track as needed.
Combine Surround and stereo tracks
Note: The method described here is only recommended if the stereo track requires a
separate mix, since it normally isn't necessary to add an extra stereo track. Playback
devices automatically apply a downmix to stereo sound in place of 5.1 Surround
when it is required.
If you still wish to create a disc that contains a 5.1 Surround track as well as a regular
stereo track, proceed as follows:
• Select the "Stereo" DVD audio track.
• Open the mixer and proceed with normal stereo mixdown.
• Close the mixer.
• Select the "Surround" DVD audio track.
• Open the mixer and activate 5.1 Surround mode. Conduct the Surround mixdown.
Set formats of individual multi-sound tracks
Next, make the necessary changes to the formats of the multi-sound tracks. This
takes place in the MPEG encoder settings, which can be opened form the burn dialog.
The simplified settings dialog displays an additional section for the multi-sound
tracks. From the flip menu, select the DVD audio track to be set. Now, you can assign
each track to the desired format.
Click "Edit" to open the advanced audio settings dialog for the MPEG encoder. Now
you can define which format the selected DVD audio track should have. For more
information, read the "Audio settings" (view page 355) section in the "MPEG encoder
settings"
(view page 351) chapter.
Note: Even if you create all multi-audio tracks in 5.1 Surround, you must make this
setting for each separately.
Sound tracks which feature the setting "Apply to all multi-sound tracks" will always
be mixed with the other multi-sound tracks, although these will be created using the
format set for them.
