Re: DVD video-audio sync pissing me off

I'm now on my 5th outboard DVD burner, a Sony DVD/VCR combo that does
both -R/-RW and +R/+RW.

I gave up some time ago dubbing my MiniDV tapes to DVD via firewire, as
the slightest disruption to the MiniDV tape would either stop the dub
process or throw the audio out of sync. I've been doing the same dub
via the composite AV cable: A disruption does not stop the dub, but it
does throw the audio out of sync. This happens about 40% (or more) of
the time, and with units by Emerson, GoVideo and Sony.

I'm getting fed up with this. How difficult can it be to assign a "time
code" to the incoming audio and video, and have a chase circuit to keep
them in sync? Jeez Louise.


I have just seen a Video Server that can play a video and an audio file and use Different Sampling rates on each!
