I'm am fairly new to this particular topic but I have read all the guides and posts on this I could find and I am confused...

I used Ulead DVD MF2.0 to put the first (and probably the only ) season of Birds Of Prey onto DVD. I was dissapointed with the lack of customisation I could do to the Menu but made the DVD anyway and burnt the resulting VIDEO_TS folder using RecordNow MAX. Most of the episodes were fine but a few had audio sync problems but nothing I couldn't handle (although annoying!)

My next project invloves doing the same thing with Smallville but I decided that I wanted a better menu so decided to try out DVD Workshop. Much better for making the menu and sorted out the correct disc template for VCD however when burnt and played this the audio was well out - It was so bad it couldn't be watched.

To compensate I went the long way round and used TMPGEnc to demultiplex, used SSRC to recode the audio, and multiplexed it back up again. I then used Ulead DVD Workshop to author the disc however it was just as bad so I tried using the new TMPGEnc Author but have the same problems.

After searching these forums I found that handy program (S)VCD2DVDMPG and have used this on the original files to create new MPGs, however once authored using DVD WS the same problem with the audio sync has occured again. Playing the MPG directly with Windows Media Player shows no drift in the audio so the problem has to be with Workshop but i'm not sure why

Exactly what happens when I click make disc in DVD Workshop that would cause the dirft to occur and what can I do about it? I have set DVD Workshop up with a disc template of :

MPEG files
24 Bits, 352 x 240, 29.97 fps
(DVD-NTSC)
Video data rate: 6000 kbps
Audio data rate: 224 kbps
MPEG audio layer 2, 48 KHz, Stereo

and told the program not to re-encode complient files and it doesn't seem to, the only thing that is re-encoded is the music for the menu however it does say that it is multiplexing. Oh and I still get the warning saying that the audio is not correct but i assume that is only pertaining to the Menu music and not the audio of the mpg themselves.

I am currently trying to find a copy of DVDMaestro to see if this can fix the problem.

Anybody got any ideas on how I can fix this? Is it DVD Workshops fault or am I doing something wrong?
