when i export a sequence to an mpeg 2 - dvd file, it separates my audio and video into two separate files.  how do i create a single file containing both?

    that seemed to do the trick.  thank you.  just switched to premiere pro from avid liquid and am trying to get up to speed on the workflow.  i wasn't trying to make a dvd, but rather an mpeg 2 file that our leightronix nexus system uses for running programs on our government tv channel.  i wasn't aware of the multiplexer setting and that got me what i wanted.  maybe there's an even better way to do this even.  just working through problems as i go about my routine.

    but thanks for the quick response.  i love the forums.

    Glad to have helped. That is why I prefaced the comment with "if you need," because there are many output schemes, where one DOES need to have a muxed file with both the Audio & Video Streams inside.

    Also, the Multiplexer Tab has eluded many. The assumption is that it is always ON by default.

    Good luck,

    When one does want a Multiplexed (combined Audio & Video Streams in one file) output, then this ARTICLE might be helpful.

    Good luck,

    If you are going to use Encore to author a DVD, you have exactly what you need... one video file and one sound file, which Encore combines

    If you are not going to create a DVD, you need a different kind of output

    So... what do you want as end result?
