Re: Record TV

Hello,

I capture old video cassettes with a Vcr, a console-mode soft (--> divX .avi. 
Image is very good, sound is perfect but .... there is a lack of 
synchronisation between sound of image. It could be a problem with Vcr or the 
codecs but does anyone know a way to correct this lack of synchronisation?
