Re: avisync

Can you explain the steps in using avimerge and avisync?. forgive my lack of knowledge in this area.

Basically, there are several .vob files that DVD::rip creates. I woud like to make a .avi with the audio and video in sync. So are you saying use DVD::Rip to trancode the .vob files to a .avi then de-multiples to create a .avi (without sound) and use tcextract to create the .mp3 audio track, then use avimerge?.

I am assuming avisync can be used directly on the transcoded file that DVD::Rip creates but then we have to insert a value to sync the audio to the video, and this is guesswork.

BTW: can I acess this thread directly on a webpage?

I'm using DVD::Rip and transcode to make avis from DVDs. The have always two sound-tracks.
Sometimes the second sound-track is out of sync. If I use avisync to correct this, the result
is very often unusable. Both sound-tracks are stuttering.
What I have to do is to de-multiplex the movie with  transcode -i movie.avi -P 1 -y raw,null -o video.avi
and with tcextract -i movie.avi -a 0 -x mp3 | tcextract -x mp3 -t raw > audio.mp3.
After this I have to multiplex the whole thing with avimerge and now I can successfully use avisync.
Why is this so complicated ? Why is it not possible to use avisync directly ?
