5.1 Question, postproduction for audio Options

[tingkumajique]

okay, i got my mix all done up sweetly in surround sound and it took me ages. right now i would like to know how is it possible to burn this audio track into probably a CD or DVD in surround sound format?

let's say... i'm using final cut pro or express for my video editing. is it possible for me to do a mix and a DVD video in 5.1 format?

thanx... suggestions are really appreaciated!

when you are creating a dvd... you would sent out your discreet tracks and save them (seperate from your video if you have any) and then use A-PACK (comes with DVD Studio Pro) to make an AC3 out of them, then use that as your audio for your DVD.

there are probably other ways to approach it.
