My audio is not in sinc w/ the video

[zozu12]

No matter what player I use the audio is a little out of sinc w/ the video. This is on playind DIVX files that were created by Vidomi (which converted them from mpeg 2 to DIVX).

Can anyone give me suggestions ?

1) Try turning the Post Processing to it's minimum for starters.

2) Always downsample the sound from 48k to 44k when encoding (you can also stick a pre-encoded DivX movie through Virtual Dub for this).

Both will help audio sync:- 1) will help sound playing infront of video and 2) will help sound playing after the picture.

I suggest this as your CPU is not really up to it and both should help you out.

I hope this helps

What resolution is the file you're playing? Your CPU can't really handle any high resolution files and will of course cause audio desynch. A resolution around the 320x240 mark is ideal.

still out of sinc

Thanks for the suggestion but already done both. I guess I'm looking for the non obtainable

If it's consistently out of synch throughout the playing of the video, you can use VirtualDub's "Audio skew correction" to resynch...

ok.. but how

I'll give it a try.. where do I get that program ?

I think I can help you with your sync problem. I have an AMD k6-2 400 mhz (256 MB RAM, GF2 MX400 64MB) and used to have A/V sync problems with some divx-files (res. 640x352, about 1hr long).

Try this, it helped for me!
Open the file in Virtualdub, set video to direct stream copy, set audio to full-processing mode. This way the audio will be encoded in PCM (no compression) and the sound-playback will require less from your CPU, leaving more capacity for divx-decoding. The file that will be created will be around twice the size of the original divx, but processing takes about 10 minutes..
By the way; use BSPLAYER

Please notify me if it works for you!!
