Trouble with Audio and Video sync on playback

[Jarrod_Kenobi]

If anyone has any tips please let me know, I would greatly appreciate it...

I use TMPGEnc for encoding video files I download, and Nero to burn it to a CD-R, but I have noticed that when I play it back on my dvd player, it starts out good at first, but after about 10 minutes the audio starts to get out of sync with the video, and then by the end of the video it is really out of whack (Id say about 2 seconds behind)

If you know of anything I can do to fix this problem, please let me know. Would it help if I encoded the audio and video seperately instead of encoding it all together?

Thanks, Jarrod

Please, anyone?

How is the play back before you burn?

When I play it on my DIVX player, it plays fine and in sync throughout the entire movie

The TMPGEnc file. It plays on your DivX player?

Actually, I'm sorry, I just went back and watched the encoded version of it (avi to mpeg) and it is the same as it is on the dvd player, out of sync. So something is obviously going wrong in the encoding process and not the burning or dvd playing process. Any Ideas?

Im sorry, not my divx player, I watched it on my realone player

Okay demux the audio from the video on the DivX file. When you encode in TMPGEnc, use the video as video input and the audio you extracted as audio input.

Just a guess, but the divx probably has vbr mp3 audio, so you could open it in virtual dub, set the video to "Direct Stream Copy" and the audio to Wav output and full processing mode.

Set audio conversion to 48000Hz (or 44100 for svcd/vcd)
Audio compression to no compression

The under file choose save as avi

The new avi should work in tmpgenc
