I'm not sure if I'm currently struggling with the same problem. I'm  
ripping several seasons of a TV series. The most recent season seems  
to have a copy protection that creates problems with transcode  
because I get an offset between audio and video (more exact: after  
transcoding audio starts immediately but video is several seconds  
black which doesn't happen when watching the DVD).

Because VLC (VideoLan client) shows the DVD in the right way I had  
the idea to use it's streaming feature to store the movie as a file.  
If I use MPEG PS as the format (without transcoding) I get a file  
that works without audio offset. But when I transcode this file I get  
the same problem. I can correct this manually using the transcode  
option --av_fine_ms. But I have to determine the offset by trail and  
error. Does somebody have an idea how I can determine this offset  
directly from the PS file?

Jörg,

is there a possibility to add this transcode option manually in  
dvd::rip?
