dvd 2 avi I give up :-(

[pedroleite]

hello gurus

i am trying to conver a dvd already on my hdrive and it plays well.
when i convert using dvdx i get sharp picture at 1300 kbps using divx 5.0 but the sound is always off sync.
sometimes a bit ahead, sometimes a little bit behind.
i've done it and re-done it but no good.
anyone know the symptom and a solution ?
thank you in advance for your help

PS: i searched the forum but found no positive answer.
thank you again

You're Title and Post are confusing, you are asking about VCD and then you
give settings of DivX, you asked about DVD2AVI, and in the post you reffer
to DVDx, please make up your mind so people can know what to tell you.

ok. you're right

step by step

1) use dvdxtractor to get the vob
2) open the vob with dvdx 2.0 and convert to divx codec ver 5.0
3) result : sound off sync

if i play on the dvdx player the sound is spot on.
please give me some hints as i ran out of options.
thank you

PS. incidentally, using dvd2svcd got the same result.
good image quality but the sound was also off sync
specs:
P IV 1.7
512 MB RamBus
HDD IBM 7 200 rpm norton organized
GF 3 asus V 8200

So, to make a long story short, you want to create a DivX file and not a VCD
or SVCD ? for one, there are specific DVD to DivX guides which can help you
out, both here, and you might also want to try www.afterdawn.com and [/url]www.doom9.org[/url] and i'm sure there are plenty of others.

Either way, i'm not familiar myself with DivX, so just wait awhile and some of
the other big guns here will come and assist you, just hang on tight!

that is correct.

divx from a dvd/ vob file made with dvdxtractor
no success regarding sound. always off sync
thank you

PS: I followed all the guides. thank you
