5.1 sound query

[philcory]

Hiya,
I have Premiere 6.5 which doesn't do 5.1 sound but as a musician aswell (show off!) I have Steinberg Cubase SX which does. Is there a way of linking this up when it comes to burning the DVD and also what software would you recommend for burning DVD with 5.1. I presently use Pinnacle for burning. Any advice would be good. Cheers folks.

Adobe Encore will allow you to place your 5.1 soundtrack on a DVD.

This from the Adobe Encore FAQ...

"Does Adobe Encore DVD support Dolby® Digital 5.1?
Yes, Adobe Encore DVD allows you to create DVDs containing Dolby Digital 5.1 content. However, the integrated
conversion is limited to 2-channel stereo. Dolby Digital 5.1 content must be created in another application."

Hope this helps.

Thanks for that

It looks like £400 odd to Mr Adobe. If you know of any cheapo methods let me know - thanks again.
