Dolby Digital AC-3 Pro not working from under Vegas Pro 9 render as option.
The Fix:
Since I still could not find any help that worked, I did some digging around on my system and found this:
The ac3plug.dll under Vegas Pro 9 has a different file size than the same file located under the DVD Architect Pro 5.2 folder.
What I did is this:
I copied the ac3plug.dll located (on my system) under C:\Program Files (x86)\Sony\DVD Architect Pro 5.2\FileIO Plug-Ins\ac3plug
to
C:\Program Files (x86)\Sony\Vegas Pro 9.0\FileIO Plug-Ins\ac3plug
REMEMBER to First rename the ac3plug.dll under Vegas 9 to ac3plug.dll.old or something similar. I like to keep backups just in case. Do not have either DVDA or SVP running.
Once I performed this, AC-3 Render as NOW WORKS under Vegas Pro 9.
Just a note: This is on a Windows 7 x64 system that I tried this on and it is working.
Hopefully others will be able to get this working for their Paid For copies of Vegas and DVD Architect Pro
