TMPGEnc SVCD Conversion Audio Out Of Sync

[old_Bill]

I have ripped a DVD with SmartRipper,used DV2AVI as a frame server and encoded the result with TMPGEnc + to a VCD and a SVCD using the Standard NTSC templates. The VCD is fine the audio and video are in sync, but the SVCD audio and video are not in sync. I have output both both 48Kbps and 44.1Kbps audio files with DV2AVI and used them as input to TMPGEnc + in the SVCD encoding, this did not make a difference.
I would appreciate some advise?

Update: I ran the SVCD MPEG files encoded by TMPGEnc with PowerDVD and the audio and video were in sync. I think that narrows it down to the Nero burn process or the APEX 3201 DVD player. What do you experts think?

I might say player especially unexpectable APEX. I do own one APEX 660ad mine can play everythings fine but not XVCD and VCD @ 23.976fps. But some player same model from the post I've read can play XVCD just fine, I don't know why.

So to make everything even narrower why don't you try to burn other way. I'd suggest to use VCDImager to create bin/cue file and burn either with NERO or CDRwin or the best burnatonce.

BTW I'm not an expert, just a regular member here.

Per Adam the moderator, do a simple de-multiplex in TMPGEnc Tools first with your encoded mpg2 file and then do a multiplex with bbMPEG. It works for me. I used Nero to burn and Apex 1200 to view.

To jeremymiller;

Have you tried to use GOTO function or skip to chapter (if you have one)with your SVCD with multiplex mpeg2 file. I have done multiplexing my mpeg2 files with bbMPEG but everytime I use GOTO audio and video get out of sync (no problem at all if I play streight from start to the end).

My player is APEX 660AD, and my mpeg2s are karaoke with 2 audio tracks.

Update:
I took the MPEG2 files that I was burning with Nero 5.5 and burned a SVCD with VCDEasy. This disk works fine with both my APEX 3201 and Samsung DV-1000. I then tried burning the same files with Nero leaving the Menu out, this disk plays fine in the Samsung but had a stutter problem in the APEX 3201. That problem goes away if I cycle through the audio options on DVD player. I think there is some problem with Nero using Menus and SVCD or there is some problem with my players and SVCDs with Menus burnt with Nero.

Thanks to all who replied.
