Video & sound out of sync

I've come across a strange problem while burning som avi files to DVD. The original avi file plays fine in Media Player but Nero Showtime plays the audio & video out of sync by several seconds - and this is the same when I burn the DVD with Nero.

This might be a bug in Nero as Media Player plays the file ok. Is there an alternative DVD burner prog that will work better?





Cheers,
Raz

Hi Mike,
Yep... It's a bug / shitty program.
I've experienced the same problem.
I now use a DVD authoring program and just use Nero to do the actual burning.
I've got a prog called WinAVI video converter somewhere that I can let you have a copy of.
Seems to work fine and supports both long play and super long play automatically.

I tried that prog... I thought WinAVI was better but I guess it's just a case of personal preferance.

Just the Pans People bits!

Thanks guys - I have found WinAVI on a free download site and will try it out with one of my files. Looks simple enough so hopefully I can watch a DVD tonight.

Update:

WinAVI works a treat - it recodes faster and more accurately than Nero (although I have yet to watch the DVD) and I also notice that the end file is much smaller so I guess there might be a drop in quality.

So I've got my curry ordered and I'm going to watch 'My Super Ex Girlfriend' with the mrs.
