• Burning DVDs Frame Skip and Audio Sync Problem
    3 replies, posted
Okay, Me and my family want to watch a movie, I download a movie and burn it to a DVD Luckily, as a Test I watched the beginning of the movie, The movie Glitches up and skips frames some times and The audio is out of sync. I use DVD-Flick to convert the AVI to DVD and use ImgBurn to put the DVD file into the DVD on Speed 4x I checked the movie on my computer, No frame skips and Audio is 100% In the Right Sync. We're going to watch the movie at 7:00 So...Can you guys help me? Also would love for anyone to tell me better programs
It's a transcoding thing. I burn movies from either Europe or Asia, and they aren't always on the same 29.98fps(or something like that) US standard. Most times these movies are 25fps. Anyways, for best results you need to transcode the movie into the right format, then burn it. If you don't, then your burning software will transcode it as part of the burning process, which is usually the worst way to do it. I use Virtualdub. I use two pass, high bitrate encoding. It takes a while(as in hours) on my computer, but the results are awesome. I used Nero to burn the dvds but I switched to Ashampoo. I'm not familiar with DVD-flick, so I can't comment on how good that is at converting video, but I imagine you are probably using settings that are fast, but not high quality. If there are options for using a higher bitrate or multipass then you should try to use those. Be aware that depending on your CPU power, it can take a lot of time. One two hour movie in PAL format takes me about 14 hours to get a good quality conversion done.
Isn't downloading movies illegal tho?
NeroVision converts AVI to anything, like MPEG-2 files, DVD, AVCHD, etc. No sync problems. try demuxing/remuxing the avi file before burning it again.
