sync problems converting Xvid to SVCD

[JIM E]

I have a Xvid file that I want to convert to SVCD. It has VBR mp3 sound. The file plays fine in WMP, but every time I convert it, the finished product is unsync. It is the kind of unsync where it starts out OK, but slowely throughout the movie, the audio starts to get ahead of the video and by the end it is horrendous. I have converted dozens of other DivX files to SVCD and this is the first one that does this. I have tried using TMPG, CCE, and DVD2SVCD, but none work. I have also tried converting the audio to uncompressed PCM in VirtualDub before I encode it, but that did not work either. Does anybody know why this is happening. I have been trying to figure this out for 2 months now, and it is driving me mad.

One suggestion: Take your PCM (Wav) file and stretch or shrink it to match the video duration. You can do that in Goldwave, it's called Time Warp. Others that I understand can do it are Besweet and Soundforge.
Good Luck.

Have you scanned for bad frames and removed them using this method? Worked for me. :thumbup:
