Hi there, new problems (and problem solved)

The source file this time was messy. A scanned 16mm documentary from the past. Sound was mono, but in the source file it was panned hard left in Dolby AC3 (2-channel). Right was silent.

I pulled the AC3-track, converted it to mono (wav) and put it as external audio into DVD-o-matic on center channel. The other channels were left unchecked. DCP seemed OK, ingested fine on Dolby DSS200/220 (4.6.0 (13)) no problems when selecting it for playback but when hitting play everything crapped out. "No connection with Cat745", "Transport not available" and so on.

Wasn´t there something about the allowed number of tracks in a DCP package? Hm.

New try. This time I made an extra soundtrack with digital silence from the mono track. Checked every channel in external audio. Sound on center, silence on the other five. The DCP played just fine.

Would it be possible for DVD-o-matic to automatically create silent tracks where needed when using external audio?
