Guys. Appologies for the cross post. A lot of months back I'd this very small utility that enables you to do the above. I can't for the life of me remember the name of it now. I believe it began with V? You could go in and tell it to save audio to wav from the file menu and set the priority of processing and other things. Has anyone any idea what this util would be? It's often used in conjunction with TMPGEnc for creating VCD's using Nero and .mpegs or .avis. Thanks Cheers Barry "A computer is fast and accurate, but it also is completely literal.
