Having Audio Sync Issues.

I’m interested in making MPEG2 files to watch on my PC. I’m not at all interested in burning CD’s and most of what I read is about just that.

I’m using;
SmartRipper 2.41
DVD2AVI v1.85
TMPGEnc v2.02

System is:
WinXP
Athlon 1.53GHz
VIA KT266A (DDR)
GF3 (Elsa920)
Panasonic 16X DVD
Live 5.1
RAID 0+1 with 120GB HD space

1- Using SmartRIP is simple.

2- About DVD2AVI:
a- Is “Force Film” part of my problem? The Austin Powers DVD RIPS at 24.000fps, NOT 23.976, so does the Shrek DVD.
b- What about Audio. 48 to 44k? Decode Dolby Digital? Data rates are very high data rate 384 and 448.
c- in both cases it claims 4:3, 720 X 480.

3- About TMPGEnc:
a- The preset settings for MPEG2 encode at 480 X 480 ??? WHY?
b- Does audio rate need to match original? By default there all 112 or 224.
c- I’ve read a few Guides and none have worked out. Audio sync is still way off.

Are there any detailed guides for ripping DVD to MPEG2?
