VirtualDub deadlock error x264 ac3

[Tarnum]

--input-depth 16 only tells x264 that the input is 16 bit. If the input isn't actually 16 bit you will only produce garbage.

How does the picture look in the VirtualDub preview? Are you using AviSynth? Show "File"->"File Information" and MediaInfo ("View"->"Text").

I'm talking about MediaInfo of the source file.

Greetings!
Faced with another issue while converting.
I attached pics. In first I see delay(?) in video track 85 ms. And audio delay in 40 and 40. I can't understand what does it mean, why two times? as in video track also 2 times.
In secoon unexplored values are 0 and 0. And audio 40 ms, as i set in properties of x264. Noticed desync. What am i doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.

p.s. How is it possible to capture video from VHS in command line, and it is possible?

[sneaker]

I assume first is delay from composition time 0. Second is delay relative to video delay. So audio is delayed 45ms. But because video is delayed 85ms audio actually starts 40ms before the video.

[Tarnum]

Thanks!
But i'm using setting of mkmerge -y 0:40
Full noticable delay...
Please explain me what formula tu use. I have input video delay in 85 ms, and audio -40 ms.
If two values of video is X1 and X2, audio Y1 and Y2. So what actions should I do?

[sneaker]

VirtualDub/AviSynth may have already gotten rid of the delay. At least that's what I would aim for when re-encoding. Can't answer without more info as requested in post #29.

[Tarnum]

Thanks a lot. But can't understand how to work witn AvySynth. In Virtual Dub no oppotunities to synchronise... Work stopped
