I'm trying to recode a vob-file retaining the orignal ac3 sound.
The result is an avi, whithout any sound :-(
This is the command-line I've used:
ffmpeg -i test.vob -f avi -vcodec mpeg4 -b 3000 -g 300 -acodec ac3 -bf 2 -s 720x528 test.avi

Playing the original vob file with xine or mplayer has sound.

Recoding the vob-file and converting the sound to mp3 is ok:
ffmpeg -i test.vob -f avi -vcodec mpeg4 -b 3000 -g 300 -acodec mp3 -bf 2 -s 720x528 test.avi

Only ac3 does not work.
Here is the output from ffmpeg (source from CVS today, same problem with older versions):
