File gets smaller after conversion???

[welz400]

Ok, thanks for your patience and clarity!
Yes that is what seems to be the problem here; a 23 something fps file converted to a 25 fps file.

I have downloaded avifrate and changed the fps setting to 25, then extracted the audio as wav by 'full processing'.

I'll start the framserver later when I am not using my machine.

Thanks again

Before you start frameserving goto video/framerate and change it from 23.976 to 25 fps,then get the wav you saved and run it through besweet gui with ntsc-pal settings,then start frameserving.

Dont need to use avifrate.

Sorry for the dumb question, but how do I run the wav file thru besweetgui?

Thanks

Check here at my site for the pics to show you where the besweet gui commands are.

Ok, just looking at the site now, and in virtualdub, where you say:
choose video direct stream and frame rate and change to 23.976 (pal to ntsc) or 25.000(ntsc to pal)

err whereabaouts in VD do I find that? I have looked all over but cannot see it.
I am using VD 1.5.2 and it is an avi file I have loaded.

Thanks

Click Video, Framerate.

Ok thanks for that reboot, I did find it eventually. doh!

johnso, I am having trouble now with the audio being out of sync with the video on the new avi I made.
Do I copy as direct stream or full processing mode, and then what can I do about the audio? It is behind the video. There is a kind of narration at the beginning of the video and it seems in tune so to speak, but the when the characters start to speak the sound is about 5/6 seconds behind.

Thanks
