I have read over 50 threads and still have this problem - I know there are a million sync threads and i know they all say this too - but trust me - i've done my research and tried lots of things - my problem is I capture my movie from an 8mm using Pinnacle 8 and moviebox - It captures into the mpeg fine and the sync is perfect - but when i go to author it it goes out of sync - i tried tmpgenc , main concept, tmpgenc source creator, sound forge, virtual dub and tmpgenc to encode the mpeg to dvd format or try to fix the sync prob- but everytime maybe i am doign something wrong??? is there an easier way? b/c when i take this mpeg that is in sync to tmpgenc author it goes out of sync - thanks
