Editing with anything produces out of sync audio

[kamberk]

My problem:

I have home movies that I am trying to make VCD's of. I want to cut them up so that I don't have blue in between segments, and when the camera is scanning to a new subject. Sounds easy? It hasn't been.

I have used Virtuadub to capture the video, but I lose sound about 2 minutes into the video.

I used MMC to capture the video as MPEG-1 1.15, and used TMPG to edit, with sound going out of sync (not bad, but noticable at the end of 60 minutes)

I used MMC to capture the video as AVI, and used Virtuadub to edit. Sound is gone after the edit except for maybe the first 30 seconds.

I tried using Pinnacle Studio with the AVI file, but it just crashes (Huffy encoding maybe?)

Shouldn't this be easy? I see a lot of posts referring to splitting the audio and video. I know how to do this with TMPG, but why does this help the video editing? Or does it?

If anyone could point me in the right direction, I would appreciate it!

Whew, you are so unlucky, my friend. Nothing seems to be going your way

I have never done DV. But from what I heard, VDub has problems with DV audio. The author, Avery Lee, says it's because nobody gives him specs about DV audio and he didn't add that support. Looks you have use something else to do your capture and choices are numerous: Premiere, Ulead MediaStudio etc. Hope you can be luckier next time.
