Audio before the picture? HElp

Dude, where do you watch them? On your PC, on your TV after you turned them into MPEGs and burned them to a VCD or what? Give us some more details, please.

My guesses for either case: On the PC, it could just be that your machine is too weak and needs more RAM or a faster CPU to play movies back in an acceptable fashion.

If it's a VCD in a DVD player: This occurs, when you didn't choose 44.1 as sampling rate during conversion, but some other value the player can't handle. Happened to me once.
