Audio/Video Synchronization Problem

[TreeTopp]

I have a DivX movie file that plays perfectly in both the Windows Media Player and the DivX 2.0 Alpha Player. However, when I try to get it into a format so that I can burn it to a DVD the audio becoms desynchronized or there is no audio at all.

When I open the AVI file in VirtualDub 1.4.10 I get the following message --

VirtualDub has detected an improper VBR audio encoding in the source AVI file and will rewrite the audio header with standard CBR values during p rocessing for better compatabilty. This may introduce up to 89193 ms skew from the video stream. If this is unacceptable (which it is), decompress the *entire* audio stream to an uncompressed WAV file and recompress with a constant bitrate encoder. (bitrate: 113.5 + or - 28.2 kbps).

I have tried the above although I'm not sure I'm doing it right. The sound will then be fine at the beginning of the movie, but as it continues the sound slowly becomes out of synch with the video.

Has anyone encountered this problem before, and if so how did you rectify it?

Thanks for your help

Simply use VirtualDub to save the audio stream as an Uncompressed PCM (WAV) file as follows:
Load your original .AVI into VirtualDub
From the "File" dropdown menu, select "Save WAV" (Enter a new filename with a ".WAV" extender).Click on "OK"
Then set "Video" to "Direct Stream Copying"
Then save the .AVI as a silent .AVI (set "Audio" to "No audio" after you've saved the WAV file).

Then close VirtualDub and restart it
Set "Audio" to "No audio"
Load your silent .AVI
Set "Video" to "Direct Stream Copying"
Under "Audio" click on "WAV Audio" and load your .WAV
Set "Audio" to "Full Processing Mode"
From the "Audio" dropdown menu, select "Compression" and choose the appropriate .MP3 settings. Click on "OK"
From the "File" dropdown menu, select "Save as AVI" and save your file with a new filename.

i tryed that with a video that does not work well at all with the sound, nothing sounds like the way it should.
In the audio codec compression, what do i choose there if it says it should be bitrate 82,9 - 9,1 kbps?
