Tmpg multiplex audio sync problem

[rabiee140]

Here is what I'm doing. I'm burning 3 movies onto dvd. I'm using dvd workshop to build menus and author, but not to burn. Here is my process. All three movies are divx.

1. use virtualdub and save the wav file
2. Open the divx file in Tmpg and create a NTSC dvd project file.
3. Open tmpg project file with VFAPI and frameserve.
4. Encode with Cinema Craft Encoder
5. Convert the wav I saved in step one to Mp2 using Tmpg and toolame
6. Use Tmpg simple multiplex to join the encoded Mpeg2 from CCE and the mp2 from Tmpg.

For two of the movies, this process worked fine. However, one of the movies starts with the audio in sync with the video, then gradually the audio becomes out of sync and by the end of the movie, the audio is out of sync by about 3 seconds.

When I open the multiplexed Mpeg2 files with Mpeg Properties, all three movies bring up an error message that says "ERROR in audio packet header". This tells me that something is wrong with the way I am going about this process, but somehow the audio ended up in sync with two of the movies.

My question is where am I going wrong? What could be making the audio out of sync and how can I fix it?

It took awhile, but I figured it out. I had bad frames in the original divx. I deleted them using Tender's guide in the guide forum on this site, everything is good now.
