    DVD2AVI won't decode to WAV on 1 DVD

    I have been using DVD2AVI for DVD rips done with DVDdecrypter, decoding the audio to wav, normally no problems.

    I tried doing a music video DVD, Essential 80's.
    I selected "decode to wav" but the Audio Format window in the Log shows "Mpeg audio" and not the normal.
    When I eventually produced my SVCD using DVD2AVI and TMPGEnc I had an audio sync problem on my stadalone Philips DVD player. PC playback is fine.
    as the song progress' the sync gets worse until playback stops for a second then resumes with the sync corrected.

    Any ideas why the dvd audio won't decode as a WAV file using DVD2AVI?

    Thankyou

    If it's a music video DVD, chances are that the audio is in LPCM format, rather than the "normal" .AC3 audio format...

      audio sync problem

      Any idea why this would create sync problems on my Philips stand alone?
      My full process is DVDdecrypter , DVD2AVI, TMPGEnc, Nero

      I have never had a problem doing DVD movies so it seems definitely something to do with the way the audio is being handled.

      I even tried converting the mpeg audio into a wav file before encoding but the result didn't change.
      I don't understand why playback on the PC is not affected.

      Any suggestions?

      Thanks for your interest.

        Make sure that the SVCD's audio sampling rate is 44,100Hz and NOT 48,000Hz...

          sync problem

          Thanks.
          I'll try resampling the audio and see how it goes.
          I should have something on the computer that can do it.

          Cheers
          Scott

            audio sync problem

            I resample the audio down to 44.1 using TMPGEnc but the sync problem is still there.
            When I encoded the new 44100 audio file with the d2v file using TMPGEnc I left the audio as an Mpeg audio file. I didn't convert it to WAV before encoding.
            I don't know if this is a problem or not.
            I know when i converted the 48000 file to WAV it didn't fix it.

            Surely though TMPG should convert whatever audio I'm using to the correct spec.

            If it makes any difference, the audio lags the video. Gets up to a 1 sec lag after 3 or 4 minutes.
