Problem with ATI MMC

[rb26dett]

I have a strange issue that keeps popping up for me.

I have an ATI AIW 9800 Pro that I use with ATI's latest MMC to capture live TV. It seems that when I capture (either with AVI(divx/huffyuv) or MPEG2) it works fine. I can open up the files with media player or other fileplayer and it works perfectly fine.

However when I use VirtualDub (or VirtualDubMod with the MPEG 2) to open the file it is usually synched for a while but at some point gets desynched and continues to become more desynched over time. This doesn't seem to happen when caping with VirtualDub but I havn't used it nearly as much so it might just be a fluke. It is not a problem with dropped frames or encoding speed (MMC reports no dropped frames and my system barly breaks 10% during encoding, or %30 with divx).

Anyone have a thought? I would use virtual dub all the time except it lacks the scheduling abilities of MMC, as well as it's not very friendly to watch during recording or as quick to set up if I see something I want to cap.

I think the problem is a playback-only issue in VirtualDubMPEG2.

Mine stutters and jerks like a baseball player at a 2-for-1 steroids sale. The further you go with the file in VirtualDub the worse the sync problem becomes.

I use it to find edit points so I can remove commericals in TMPGEnc.
