VDub Problem/Audio sync problem

[moesyzlak]

I usually use VDub, but when I try to use it for the Xvid file I am currently struggling with I get the following error:

ACM failed to suggest audio decompression format

then

AVI Output WAV: The handle is invalid

So, I gave up using Vdub and used Gold Wave instead. No problems with Gold Wave, but when I convert using TMPGEnc the audio and video are out of sync.

Any suggestions?

Which audio encoder was TMPGEnc using? The internal one, or an external one?

[moesyzlak]

I used to Gold Wave to create the WAV and then selected that as the audio source in TPMGEnc.

[Tommyknocker]

TMPGEnc has an audio encoder internal to itself. It also can use external encoders like TooLame, Lame, SSRC, etc. Have you tried any of them?

[moesyzlak]

Are you suggesting forgoing using Vdub or Gold Wave entirely?

[moesyzlak]

OK so I've tried TooLame as an external. No luck. Same audio sync problems. When I look at the file info in VDub , this is what I get:

AVI Information

Audio Stream

Sample Rate: 48000Hz
Channels: 5 (stereo)
Sample Precision: 0-bit
Compression: Unknown (tag 2000)
Pre Load Skew: 28000 Samples (0.05s)

I really don't know what much of that means, but hopefully that will help someone else tell me what is wrong. Do I need some sort of AC3 plug in for TMPGEnc?
