Scratching my head on this one...

[EwanG]

Am using VirtualDub (Build 16297) with the Panasonic DV Codec to take some captures and convert them into MS MPEG-4 files for archive.

For some reason, the converted files play back just fine in VirtualDub. But in anything else the audio is faster than the video (you hear it and then you see the mouths move).

What is causing this? Are the AVIs I've created just trash? I've used VirtualDub before and not had this problem, but am on a new machine and am trying to figure out what I could have done that created this issue.

Thanks for any help,
Ewan

Just as an FYI I'm running Win XP Pro SP 1 on a 1.3 GhZ PIIIm with 1 Gig of Ram and writing to a Firewire drive, though my internal drive has a 3 Gig Cache and 30 Gigs of free space.

Checked the source file for one of these, and the sound is in sync either way, so it seems to have something to do with the VirtualDub conversion or the playback of the converted file...
