mtd and AC3 selected fails

[steve@…]

latest svn build as of 2-15-08 slap in a dvd and try to import it. If I select AC3 the transcode thinks for a few minutes then claims its all done but only creates an empty .avi file. perfect or good level of transcoding doesnt seem to matter. but if I dont select AC3 it transcodes just fine.

The MTD log will contain the transcode command, do it manually and attach any errors to this ticket.

thats it.

[Anduin Withers]

Your source audio is LPCM the AC3 checkbox enables the –A option for transcode, which is only good for pass-through. (Yes the UI should do a better job)
