I have a problem with mp4 files in DVD Flick. When I try to import them into DVD Flick I get the following error message:

Cannot add audio track 2 from (directory\filename.mp4. It needs to be resampled
but has more than 2 channels, which is not yet possible with input using morre
than 2 channels. The audio source will not be loaded.

It will then import the video, but not the audio track. I am at a complete loss as to what to do now.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Regards,
Ed Wood

Convert the file to .avi. That works for certain. Use this program: http://www.pcfreetime.com/

Here is a little video I made that explains how to do it: https://vimeo.com/9283805

I am familiar with converting mp4 to avi files then burning them in DVD Flick. The last time I tried that with this particular series (TV Series: Ironside), the resulting video was grainy, and slightly pixilated. I have looked at the mp4 file on Windows Media Player and it looks and sounds ok. Just can't get the audio when I import the files into DVD Flick. I will take a look at the program (pcfreetime) and see if it does a better conversion job from mp4 to avi that what I am currently using.

Have a great weekend!
