I am trying to burn some .avi files into dvd format so I can watch them on my dvd player. 3 days and 13 wasted dvd's later, I have managed to burn them but they always have a sound lag problem - the images on the screen appear about 4 seconds before the voice/sound track. For the first 5 minutes, the sound is in sync - and then it starts lagging behind. I have watched them on my computer in .avi so I know that they are originally in great condition - no problems at all, it's only when I burn onto dvd that I have the sound problem. It took me ages to figure out how to do it as the software that I thought would work, didn't. I tried everything, finally converted .avi to mpeg2 (using Cucusoft Pro v5.07) - then using InterVideo WinDVD Creator2 version Version 2.0B014.337C33 - SE001(that came with my Toshiba) - I managed to burn onto dvd (I'm using +R). I had tried Sonic AND Nero And Media player AND Windows MovieMaker to burn the dvd's but NONE of them would work. I would burn the dvd, put that into my dvd player and an error message would appear that "this kind of disk cannot be played on the dvd". Only when I used INterVideo, did it work - but again, then I had sound sync problems. I can't afford to waste any more blank dvd's and have spent about 3 days to get this far and I can't figure out what I need to do. I'm sure it's just the settings. Any help would be very much appreciated. It really would! Thank you
Hi JXP2307 - thanks for the tip. Unfortunately, it did not work. I used ConvertXtoDVD - process went flawlessly - put the dvd into the dvd player (two of them actually) and both dvd players say this kind of disk cannot be played. It is a Verbatim dvd, and I have burned many a dvd onto verbatim dvd's - so i know its not the dvd's.... any other thoughts? thank you.
Hi there, Please provide us a full conversion log. I have a feeling you converted a PAL DVD when you needed NTSC. Most people keep the Video Standard to Automatic, they should force it to the standard they need. I need NTSC, so force every conversions to NTSC ! Check in the settings ! P.S: Latest version is v2.0.12.126
Hi; No, actually I had set it to NTSC beforehand - but I don't have the log any more. I will do another conversion later on today and then post it here. Thank you Cougar_ii. Appreciate it! J
Hello. I have a similar problem. I save a MPEG-2 Video file created from a TV show using my Hauppauge TV card(PVR-150). I can play it back ok in Windows Media Player. I can play it back ok with power DVD. When I import it into the WinDVD creator 3 to make a DVD, just playing it to remove the commercials shows the Audio is out of sync with the video. I had not made the DVD yet. This should be simple??? Hundreds of forum entries on authoring etc. Is there a step by step simple answer. Am I feeding the wrong format to the program? I just want to take my DVDs to camp and watch them on my laptop. HELP!
