Muxing MPEG streams...

OK, here's the problem. I have a DivX movie from which I extracted the MP3 track. I also have an MPEG-1 recode of the video in a plain old video stream.

Now I want to multiplex the two streams into an MPEG system stream. I don't want to recode the audio stream, if I can help it. I just want to take these two streams and mux them. Only problem is, I don't know of any programs out there which can take two streams and just multiplex them; all the programs I'm aware of have to recode them first, and I don't want to do that. Plenty of de-muxing tools are out there, but I need the opposite. Anyone here know of anything that can help?

Nice except for two things: first, I don't have Toast, and second, even if I did, I know there's recoding involved in a Toast export. For some reason, this MP3 really doesn't recode well, and I'd prefer to use it as the audio track (which I know is possible).

Although now that you mention Classic, I do seem to remember a program that could do things like convert an MPEG to something Toast-aware and such, without recodes. Now, if only I could remember what it was called...


[EDIT: Well, what I was thinking of was VCDGear. But that doesn't work.]

You don't think you need toast. Export option should be in QT pro. Once the movie is exported open the file in QT.
If the mp3 is suspect, try decoding the mp3 to aiff. See how that works.
