audio VCD problems

[machitun]

I'm trying to burn a concert from AVI to VCD. The same problem happened twice already. Once the CD is burnt, I put it into my DVD player, it starts and after a few seconds the audio dissapears. The audio is there when the disc starts and suddenly, gone ....The video is perfect, the bruning process doesn't detect any errors, everything is dandy until this happens !!!!
I'm desperate !!!! Can someone help me out !

Is the problem also there when played on the PC?

What software are you using to encode and to burn?

http://www.dvdrhelp.com/vcd - Try downloading and burning a pre-prepared VCD image, to see if the problem is in the burn, or in the formatting of the audio.

If that "canned" VCD doesn't work right, then nothing will - if your player can handle CD-RW media, it may be worth using a CD-RW until you find what's wrong.

If it's still playing the video, it can't be having any significant problem reading - at least, you'd expect to see the video disrupted in some way, surely?

I have the same question as LTR12101B. What software are you using to encode? I've had the same problem. I solved it by ripping the wav audio from the avi first with virtualdub. Then adding it seperately in TMPGEnc.
