Audio sync problems converting XviD to SVCD

[Benhermies]

I originally cross-posted this question in the wrong forums last week. My apologies.

I've been having some trouble converting some DivX and XviD AVI's to SVCD's. I've used two methods so far on each of the movies but get the same results.

1) When I try using DVD2SVCD the first disc will usually be fine but the audio in the second disc will be completely out of sync with the audio being 2-5 seconds ahead of the video.

2) When I try using Gary's Foolproof AVI to SVCD Guide (available on this site) which involves using VirtuaDub MP3 Freeze to check for bad frames (which it finds none), then using normal VirtualDub to extract and resample the 2 channel stereo sound, then use TMPGEnc to convert the video and merg the audio I get similar results with the first disc in sync while the second disc is out of sync.

Some movies convert fine, but some just won't stay in sync. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Is there an easy fix for this? If I tried converting it to one big file then splitting it to multiple CD's whould that be easier?

PLEASE HELP!

The only method I know that works 100% requires a bit of effort.

Basically you open the AVI in VDUB, then select full processing for the Audio (the step most often missed, and results in a VBR MP3 being the audio) and save the WAV. Now open the AVI in TMPGEnc, select the WAV as the Audio source, use your bitrate calculator and make an SVCD. That's it. Works every single time (well, I make DVDR's, but it's 100% the same thing). Cut that MPEG into 750 MB pieces(800 MB limit for mode 2), burn as SVCD with Nero. Or use VCDEasy to make BIN/CUE files for you.
