The difference sound/video in AVi or DIVX files? Why?

[1234567]

Ine some AVi or DIVX files, i see a 3-4 seconds difference between sound and video. Why?

Mostly because the AVI is damaged in some way, or it's created by a moron.

...or maybe the player you're using doesn't handle VBR audio as well as it should. How are you playing these AVIs? In a software player, or a set-top DVD player?

Depending on the player it could still be the VBR audio at fault. It could also be the way the player converts signals. I have some NTSC material with VBR audio. Most played back fine, although jerky on my new player. Some played back jerky, and with audio problems. A little inverstigation showed that the player had been set to PAL output, so NTSC was being converted for playback (I live in a PAL region). I changed the settings to output native NTSC for NTSC source, and the problem was resolved.

There can be many causes. Somes trial and error is the only process to resolve a problem.
