I am posting this in hopes of helping anyone with the same problem. For days I tried various programs to capture VHS tapes to my PC. No matter what I tried, the audio was not in sync. It was not because of my PC specs or dropped frames. I tried various timing settings. I wanted to capture the video with Huffyuv for video and PCM audio. I'm using the USB capture device Roxio DVD to VHS 3 Plus. It has a composite video input and RCA audio jacks.
Here is what I did:
The timing settings under the Capture menu are in the first screenshot below.
Now select these options:
Under the Audio menu> Audio Source>No Source.
Audio menu>Audio Input>No Input.
Audio menu>Windows Mixer.... A window like the second image below will pop up. Make sure the capture device is selected and click properties. A window like the third image pops up. Click the listen tab and select "Listen to this device" Click apply and/or OK. Click OK to close the window from the second image.
This solved my audio sync issues so far. I'm not sure exactly why it worked, but it did. Maybe someone can let me know the answer to that. I hope it will help others who have this problem. I know from searching that a lot seem to have the issue.
