How to fix or remove bad frames?

[mjvgiese]

I have a movie file (.avi, about 700mb) that I've been working with for a couple days. I encoded it with TMPG, but the audio was quite out of sync. I scanned the original .avi file for bad frames in VirtualDub, and it said 801 frames masked, 20 bad frames, 821 frames good but undecodable. I'm assuming if I can get rid of the bad frames that I'll be able to encode with TMPG and the audio will be ok, is this correct?

How do I get rid of these bad frames? Can I just save the avi as a new file after VDub scans it for bad frames, and it will save it without the bad frames? (I just have the regular version of VirtualDub, is that ok, or do I need to get a different one?)

One more thing. Is that alot of bad frames to have? I mean is it going to affect the movie once they are taken out?

I'd really appreciate any help!
Thanks!!!!!
