I searched for a solution to this but i think it may be a unique situation. I have an mpg file that a friend ripped off of a VHS for me with his leadtek vivo card (no idea what program). The file is an mpeg2, 29fps at 640x480 resolution 1hr36min, (Re-ripping is not an option). I want to burn it onto a dvd with a menu I made in Encore 1.5. The problem is that Encore only accepts files that are 720x480. My first thought was to find a program that could convert the resolution. The closest I could think of was to re-encode with tmpgenc. I have tried with both tmpgenc pro and dvd source creator, both as seperate m2v and mp2 files, and as a single mpg file. The resolution always comes out right, but the audio sync is off towards the end of the file (it gradually gets worse until it is .5 to 1 seconds off at the end.). The audio synch is fine on the original so I wish i could just find a program to convert the resolution of the original. If anyone has a solution (different programs to use or diferent way of authoring) please let me know.
More info: When I play the original MPG in Media Player Classic and look at the properties, this is what it lists: Audio: PCM 48000Hz stereo 1536Kbps Audio: MPEG Audio 44100Hz stereo 224Kbps Unknown Audio: MPEG Audio 48000Hz stereo 384Kbps Video: MPEG2 Video 640x480 29.97fps 4000Kbps Audio: MPEG Audio 44100Hz stereo 224Kbps I have no idea what that means to have 4 different audios listed. (Possibly the problem?)
