DVD Ripper No sounds on MKV rip?

[socker_dad]

I have got to be the most inept user here!

I am using DVDFab 8.0.6.8 to rip my DVD's to mkv format. I store these on a Iomega Screenplay Director Plus.

After 10 hours (!!!!) I got Evolution to mkv, played it and had a FANTASTIC picture - but no sound.

Here are my settings:
Title(Angle) is the full 38 chapters

Of the two English settings, I took the default, AC-3/5.1 (the other is AC-3/2)

I did not select the English subpicture because I don't want the subtitles.

My profile is mkv.default:
Output type: Audio+Video

Encoding method: High quality encoding (2-pass)
Fixed Rate: 2000 kbps
Split: No split
Framerate: Same as source
Deinterlacing is checked

Audio Format:aac
Bitrate (I take the default here, which comes up as 448 kbps)
Channel (Again, the default, 5.1 Multichannel)
Volume: 199%

I leave the Frame Resolution alone.

Subpicture is Direct render to video (that is, it doesn't create the separate idx and sub files).

===================

When the rip is completed, it plays on my PC just fine - sound is crystal clear. But when I get it to the Iomega, no sound. (The TV is a LG 40" LCD which plays the ISO files just great.)


What do I do now?

Make sure the Iomega is set up correctly for playing the sound from mkv and as well the TV sound

Um...I went through the set up for it, and all seems right. I get sound great out of the ISO files........

Don't use the MKV.default.

Use MKV.h264.audiocopy and select the Dolby Digital 5.1

It sounds like your media player will not play the AAC soundtrack that you are encoding to.
