8.0.7.3 vs 8.0.8.5 and Audio Sync issue

[alphabetagaga]

I guess the only option is to wait for the bug to be fixed...

have you got 8.0.7.3 installed aswell? this can be installed alongside 8.0.8.5

i use 8.0.8.5 to copy the disc to the hdd. then i will use 8.0.7.3 to convert from the hdd to the output file. i've not had any av sync issues since doing that

I am in the process of trying out DVDfab and like it very much overall, however the audio sync issue would be a deal breaker.

What I want to do is rip my personal DVD and Bluray's to my PC hard drive so I can watch and stream them to two different Xbox's. WMV seems to give me the best performance/ease of use. However, I have encountered the audio sync problem in doing this. I have read that people have been able to select the frame rate within the DVDfab settings. How is this possible? The drop down does not "drop down" for me. All I can select is "same as source." If manually setting the correct frame rate solves the problem- great, I am all in.

Make sure your graphics card drivers are the latest updated version and in common settings-A/V Codec that you have Software selected for all choices.

Now what conversion profile have you tried that will not let you change the frame rate as I not have that problem and can check it out when I have the time

I have just updated to the most recent driver from Nvidia released on 4/18 for my 8800 gtx. I am still not able to select the frame rate- it only offers "same as source." This is using Bluray Ripper with the Xbox 360 profile set to WMV/WMA 10.

Both of the Xbox profiles should present you a list of framerates with Same as Source as the default. Try the other Xbox profile, the one that says 480p but without multichannel support.

For Bluray Ripper -> Xbox, it only gives me two options:

1) xbox360.wmv.vma10
2) xbox360.mp4.hd

Both only offer "same as source" in the drop down framerate box. It is my understanding that it should offer a number of different frame rates? And from what you mention, I should have more than just two options under Xbox?

To make things even more interesting, I did a test on a blu ray using method #1 above with 2 pass. Like another poster in this forum, pass 1 went smooth and somewhat fast, pass 2 took a really long time, but was able to complete. Playing the completed file on my computer resulted in the audio being out of sync. However, streaming it to my Xbox via Windows Media Center, it was not out of sync. Makes no sense to me... wonder if this is the same for others who have the audio sync issue.

Using the Xbox setting in Bluray Ripper, it only offers me the wmv/10 and mp4/hd settings. Neither of which allow me to choose the framerate- it only allows "same as source." I have seen some other posts that indicate they are not able to select the framerate. What can I do to be able to manually select the framerate?

You're right, I did not notice you said you were using Blu-ray.

[Tony Jenkins]

Ahh, I just saw the DVD indicator before the thread title.

Regardless, to clear things up: there is an audio sync problem for both DVD and Bluray ripper. Apparently, the DVD sync can be solved by manually selecting the framerate, but with Bluray you cannot do this- so there is no fix at the present time? Do I have it right?

That seems right. I've resorted to going back to 8.0.7.3 and other than a few random problems I'm having not too much of a problem with ripping. In another thread I had started someone had stated that they were aware of a WMV problem (it's broke was his wording) and to stay tuned for an update. That was a month to 2 months ago. I'm hoping there's a fix sooner than later.

Please try the latest version found here

I have tested it on a few profiles and the A/V sync was perfect.
Thanks Fengtao

I just tested 8.0.8.8 on Sherlock Holmes. While it took me 2 tries due to not knowing that the longest length video on the disc was directors commentary which the sync was horrendous on, the second try using WMV worked perfectly fine. I'm now trying Iron Man 2 which in the past has given me some serious problems as well.

[Tony Jenkins]

Just tried 8.0.8.8qt Bluray Ripper to WMV and audio is still out of sync. It's hard to tell from some of the posts if people are referring to ripping DVDs or Bluray- it would be nice to confirm if the audio sync is still a problem for both, or just one.

CBR929, did you test a bluray rip to wmv?

[Tony Jenkins]

Forgot to mention- I also tried using 8.0.7.3 Bluray ripper to WMV and experienced the out of sync problem. Is 8.0.7.3 confirmed to be in sync for Bluray and not just DVD ripping?

When i used it, it worked on every movie I did except for Sherlock Holmes.

The A/V sync fix for DVD Ripper is in the 8088 Qt Beta. I have not had any sync problems with Blu-ray Ripper in 8085 or 8088.
