Besweet... 29.970 --> 25.000

[ZiGGY909]

Hello, I am trying to convert the audio from a XviD file which is MP3 44hz to PAL

I tried saving the WAV with VirtualDub and then using the WAV to convert to MP2 using besweet beta.
Also tried demuxing the audio, converting that also to 25 (PAL).
I even tried converting to 23fps and then back to 25.

My problem is with the results: the voices are slow and deep (like slow motion),
what exactly am i doing wrong? (23-->25 works perfectly).

Suggestions / Advice would be greatly appreciated, thank's alot.

Film to PAL is a ~4% speed up. You are talking about like 20% difference.

So its not possible?

Well it is possible to keep the pitch, but at 20% slower, it is still going to be noticably slower.

open the avifile 29,976 fps in virtualdub
video-> full processing mode
video -> framerate
in this window , you must select (by 3:2 Pulldown Removal) the option "Reconstruct from fields -adaptive"
video -> compression ,now you must chose a video codec installed on your pc
xvid or others and click on configure for the bitrate

with the result you must made a pal dvd
like a 23,976 fps avi

This is a strange thing with Besweet, I have no idea why it has the 29.97->25 or vice versa option. That's pointless since it actually does change the speed by 20% which is not what is done with a coversion between pal and ntsc.

NTSC is NTSC. When you convert 23.976fps footage to 29.97fps the runtime doesn't actually change so the audio is identical. There's no reason for BeSweet to treat the two differently.

Its real simple, do everything you've been doing except in BeSweet use the 23.976->25 option instead. This will increase the audio speed by 4% and it should match up correctly with your video.
