How to find and replace dropped frame in mp2

[calimero]

Hi guys,


I have a audio/video synch. I've record TV with my AIW radeon, and it said I've gor <1% dropped frame.
It appears that the video size after DVD2AVI is 1h 07min 43s while the sound file is 1h 08min 14s. so I've got a synch pb when I transform
the mp2 file to divx or any other format. The ATI player file still synch correctly the captured video file.

compress the wav file is not a solution since the dropped frame is not uniform on the video file. I've already try this solution
and the result is not good. Recapture is not also a solution because it's TV capture, so I won't get a chance to do
it again. I'm looking for a software that will accept MPEG file (MP2) and will copy the frame before the dropped frame
in order to give a video file that match the wav file exactly by inserting freeze frame where there is dropped frame.

Do you have any idea or information about this

next to almost impossable in mpeg format ... if you convert the mpeg to images (mpegrepair for example) and if your cap software outputs black when dropped a frame .. you can scan for black frames and manually replace them.
but it sounds as if your sf doesnt output black when that happened -- you would have to go and step through frame by frame and see where it jumps -- a long proccess on a long movie (ive done it many many times to check for bad frames) ..

if you have access to a mpeg editor where you can see the wav file waveform and also the mpeg frame by frame (vegas video w/ mpeg plug in is one such app) you could scan through and adjust as nessessary the wav to the picture (trim parts out with fade in/out to match and not get click) -- its better to edit the audio than the video if at all possable becuase i dont like to see frame repeats (you can see 1 frame out) .. if you do want to edit the video - like i said convert to images and when you have a drop frame dont just add the prev frame but blend the before and after frame.
