Conversion of .TS to .MPEG2 causing problems

[DirtyMetis]

Hello all - long time lurker/reader, first time poster. Trying to convert some .TS files to MPEG2 for authoring a custom DVD and got one file that's giving me a hard time with every encoder I try to run it through, despite it playing fine in MPC. Managed to Demux it with Project-X and found that it was the audio that's giving me problems - the AC3 stream has a 35ms bit of 2.0 audio before the 5.1 kicks in. Managed to separate the two streams with splitac3 but now of course I'm having syncing issues with my encodes - was hoping a mere 35 milliseconds wouldn't be an issue, but no such luck. Still relatively new to all this, how to I proceed at this point to resync the two streams? Do I need to trim 35ms off the start of the video stream before encoding the two? Which tool(s) would I use? Any sort of help would be greatly appreciated - I'm sure its probably an obvious fix but I'm at a loss at this point. Thanks!

you can add the delay (either when multiplexing the audio, or authoring the DVD)

or you could join 35ms of blank 5.1 audio
