    MPEG sync

    Hi all

    Im having a problem syncronizing

    My audio with my video
    It is not a frame rate problem

    Im looking for a way to determine the time differance between the audio and the video

    Ive looked for some Utills that alow me to 'Shift' the audio by a certain amount of time but cannot find any


    My Virtual Dub has no Audio Menu

    Thanks

    You can resynch the MPEG1 or MPEG2 file as follows:

    1) Load it into TMPGEnc or TMPGEncPlus

    2) Set mode to "MPEG-1" or "MPEG-2 (as appropriate)

    3) From under the "Advanced" tab, put a checkmark next to and then double click on "Source Range"

    4) Enter an appropriate positive or negative amount of milleseconds (thousandths of a second) next to "Audio gap correct"

    5) Save with a new filename

    Let us know of your success ;>}

        ok I just tried your method

        Im still waiting for it to output the Wave file

        This is not quite what i wanted tho

        Im after a tool that will display the resyncronized mpeg+wav and alow my to shift one or the other relative in realtime so i can 'See' the desync' and amend in realtime

        adding a few millisec's then outputting the file, checking the file, then retrying, seems to be a very long way round quite a simple problem

          a tip I read a while back is to use just a clip, try it out and if ok, re-do the whole thing.

          VirtualDubMod is the app with a streams/stream list menu which contains a shift foraudio.

          I personally don't know of an app that previews a time shift but can imagine that it would be an expensive, professional app.

            If the poster uses VirtualDubMOD as you suggest, he/she'll be awfully surprised to discover that the new file is an .AVI and no longer an MPEG file!

              ah, this is where my theory falls to the ground ... forgot "Direct Stream" doesn't actually mean that

                Umm what does it matter if it is an Mpeg or Avi


                They all get processed by the cpu.


                Oh btw i am trying the clip method in premiere

                Thanks

                  Assuming you wish to create a standard DVD, MPEG2 files would not need encoding. They are also considerably smaller than plain manilla AVI
