[MPlayer-users] Re-dubbing a DVD using mencoder

[William R Sowerbutts]

Hi all,

I have a DVD where I'd like to replace the soundtrack of part of the movie. I
want to select out the relevant section of the movie (about 25 minutes long)
and replace the audio track with something taken from a CD. I want maximum
quality so I'd like to include the audio stream as raw PCM and leave the
already-compressed video stream untouched. I also want to be able to adjust
the synchronisation of the two until they are precisely matched -- but in a
worst-case scenario I can always pad the start of the audio track with an
appropriate amount of silence. The new audio stream is 44.1KHz as opposed to
the existing 48KHz audio track; presumably this won't be any trouble?

The question is: how do I do this using mencoder? Any tips?

Thanks!

Will
