Way To Check Video/Audio Synch?

[Lord_Anselhelm]

Right.

Occasionally I need to increase the volume on a file or otherwise edit the audio, like if there's too much hiss for reasons of a bad source or bad encoding. I always use VirtualDub for this, due to the ease of use.

However, sometimes there's an audio delay in the video file and VirtualDub (to the best of my knowledge) doesn't tell you the video/audio synchronisation, so I don't know whether I have to delay the audio or not.

Is there a program which can tell this for me easily?

"Is there a program which can tell this for me easily?"

The only real way I know of to check is to just "Play" the file.

That's the problem. I can play it by ear, but sometimes it's almost impossible to get the exact link up.

Surely someone's created a program to do this simply? It can't be that hard to look at a file and see when the audio starts compared to when the video starts.
