I am just switching from doing (x)VCD to doing SVCD, since I got a new DVD player. Previously I had ripped a DVD, converted to XVCD/MPG1 with TMPGEnc, and it played flawlessly. Now I'm taking the same VOB/AVI files and converthing them to SVCD/MPG2, and it's coming a little out of sync. Other then one being VCD and one being SVCD, all settings were identical. I even tried switching from TMPGEnc's audio processing to Toolame, but same result. I'm playing around with 'audio gap correction', but I'd like to understand why its out of sync in the first place, so I can hopefully prevent it beforehand. Anyone?

if you are ripping from a DVD get DVD2SVCD. doesn't get any easier, a one stop ripping solution. it runs all your programs in the background like besweet and CCE (or TMPG in your case) and the encodes come out very nice.

Cool, I'll give it a try. Let me ask ya this, how much control do you have over things like where it splits the movie (if you're splitting it onto 2 cd's)? I've always used the SmartRipper/DVD2AVI/TMPGEnc method for doing my XVCDs, but always made sure I cut the first half right at the end of a scene. I'm all for automation, but not if it's going to cut in the middle of a scene or a sentence.
Either way, I am still curious as to why SVCD gets thrown out of sync while VCD doesn't. -
full control. you can split so easily by min per disc and it helps calculate the desired bitrate using the time you specify and disc size. it doesn't dummy the programs it just makes it so you don't have to go here, then go here, then go here, ............. to rip it uses internal routines or vSTRIP, your choice. you can use TMPG or CCE as the encoder, your choice. many many more options that can be adjusted but it is all to much to mention here. head on over to www.doom9.org and check out their forum. they have a dedicated DVD2SVCD forum with lots of help and info.
btw, using CCE as the encoder and doing 5 pass VBR SVCD the quality comes out perfect -
also try ripping the audio out of the mpg and converting it to 48,000 instead of 44,100 and then re-multiplex it in tmpgenc. I have a phillips dvd711 and it plays all vcd's in sync but when i try and play svcd's they r always out of sync. Converted the audio on all my svcd's to 48,000 and have not had a problem since, when u burn them back in nero it says they r invalid audio streams but burns them fine.
