Audio / Video misychronization

[deukalion]

Hello, i would like to ask whether this since-always problem i got is common or not and how should i fix it.

Most of the mpg/avi videos i download and then try to convert and burn into DVD are ridiculous in terms that audio and video do not match. My pc is not very fast but i can't really think that this is the problem since i can successfully do other multimedia jobs. I have used a lot of different programs and methods to overcome this problem but they are either useless or they take such a long time that finally doesn't worth it.

Any suggestions?

What tools are you using? ConvertXtoDVD is best for downloaded material.

Well depends on the source... Most often i use WinAVI Video Converter for the conversions and then either dvd shrink to compress 'n burn or dvd-lab pro to make some further stuff to compile. i will try your suggestion too though. In case the source video has the problem, do you know any fixing solutions?

WinAVI has a poor reputation around here. But ConvertX usually handles video off the net fairly well, even PAL<>NTSC conversions and most MP3 VBR audio. VBR audio is a common cause of sync problems when converted to DVD formats.

For freeware FAVC does fairly well with most source material.
