Audio not in sync

[fdm]

I use SVCD2DVDMPG and author the files with Tmpgenc DVD Author, but the audio is not in sync. I tried to use Scenarist, but then I get this error message, when I import the video file: Number of pictures (20) in GOP(# 4550) or between sequence_header_code should be equal or smaller than 18.


I want to author tv shows I have as VCD.

What i learned so far form my numours tries to make dvds out of VCDs is:

1. Always use a two step encoding form mp2 to ac3. mp2->wav, wav-ac3. Or even 3 steps: mp2->wav, wav 44.1 - > wav 48, wav->ac3. This gives less cracking in the audio. And if this doesn't help try the solution of tip 2.

2. Sometimes audio is out of sync. Then reencoded the audio with tpgmenc. then encoded it to ac3 it will be sync than. This is the problem i have for 90% of the time.

3. Use a program to author the dvds that doesn't reencoded the input files like: SVCD2MPGDVD+ but that will not work if you got the second problem or tmpgenc dvd author. I know you can't have fancy menus but it is always better then video's with blocks or audio trouble.

I will try it.

Do you have an idea, why I cannot import the m1v file into Scenarist?

some of the high end authoring not only look at resolution but also GOP (Group Of Pictures) number to determine DVD SPEC compliancy....

Ones i know if are DVD Architect & ReelDVD

I still have sync problems.

Has anyone an idea?

Has anyone experience with authoring vcd on dvd downloaded from the net?

I have tried many times and i only had troubles with the video to get it right. Audio also gave troubles but never after the steps i told you before.

Can you tell me what methode you are using now.

@ yf2001usa: I tried it your way and used for authoring ifoedit and tmpg dvd author. With Both I had the problem.

@ ChrissyBoy: I try the way DVDMixer describes. Sounds promising.

Btw thank you both for the help. I appreciate it.

You can try that but don't get your hopes up.. that is the way i do it too. Only i don't reencoded the whole ep, just the sound.
