My investigations into audio sync issue

[happnatious1]

Dont know if its related but if I use 2 pass encoding on the movie "knowing" the audio is out of sync,however 1 pass and it's ok.

[Bigford352]

now i am looking at super troopers i think there may be a slight audio sync issue so slight it is hard to tell and the frame rates are off on that one I wonder how to fix this?

[GregiBoy]

Same here.

I have done literally thousands with no problems.

This frame rate issue is the only thing that I've been able to put my finger on.

odd I have done a few conversions and audio seems fine i wonder if there is somthing else???

Here's the MediaInfo on my rip of Star Trek 11. You will note that everything is 25.000fps.

This is really weird authoring, 29.97 specified in the IFO/BUPS & 23.976 in the actual VOB's.

This is what I think is getting Fab all confused. I have PM'd the developers referring to this thread for your results and that should certainly assist them in finding the logic problem within Fab or to add in a frame rate checking utility.

As I said, I am now positive that is why I have not been having any problems here in Oz as I have double checked ALL of my sources and they are all 25fps/25fps.

Sorry just ben lurking on the audio sync issue alot and after seeing the frame rate issue i wanted to look at a few of my dvd files and they all have 29.97 on ifo/bup and 23.976 on vob they was on doctor dolittle 1&2 and super troopers. I am interested to see a media info on a file with no sync issues and see how they compair?????

[midiwall]

Awesome. Thanks for all your help these past few days Greg.

Agreed... But given that some of the testing was done with forcing frame rate, then it confirms that there are issues in DVDFab with "override" enforcement. (like was mentioned before)

Rip "Max Payne" to your HDD but use "Main Movie" mode and post the MediaInfo data on that rip.

Done - but this should be the same as the previous info I posted up for the "HDD source" image.

Sorry mate for giving you the incorrect information on IFOEdit. I'll do a little more research myself.

I think we certainly have identified where the problem lies though.

I am also now convinced that the reason that I do not have your problems is that all my rips have checked have 25.0fps set in all areas (I'm in Australia) so there is little chance of Fab getting it wrong...

If the framerate is incorrectly set in the authoring, what chance has Fab of getting it right?

Just one other test I'd like you to try.

Rip "Max Payne" to your HDD but use "Main Movie" mode and post the MediaInfo data on that rip.

[midiwall]

Having a quick look at your MediaInfo results confirms what I suspected. The title is poorly authored and Fab is using that info for the encode.

The main IFO file defines the frame rate at 23.970 whereas the VOB info shows 23.976 frame rate.

Although this discrepancy is small, it will result in audio sync problems.

As I can't emulate this here (All my titles are 25fps), can you try this please?

Download IFOEDIT
Modify VIDEO_TS.ifo to be 23.976 fps
Re-encode with Fab
Test and report back

Okie Doke.. So, opening the IFO with IfoEdit gives me a lot of info, but I don't see the frame rate anywhere.

Offset 0x100 of the VMGM_MAT looks interesting as that's aspect ratio, compression method, source resolution, etc. But nothing about frame rate.

If I look at VTS_01_0.IFO that has the program chain in it, with the chapters broken out. IfoEdit shows all the chapters as "30fps", and it's not editable.

I'm fine using the hex editor, but I dunno where I'm poking. I found a description of the IFO file format, but no info on frame rate. Is it being computed from other data?

ref:

http://www.mpucoder.com/DVD/ifo.html

I found another app called "DGPullDown" which promises to fix up frame rates in IFOs, but it crashes in trying to start the conversion.

I do have a piece of good news this morning... This file is _good_:

• MICHAEL_JACKSONS_avi_h264_720x404_Fast_1046kbps_23 976fps_7051_ADMIN.avi

So... someone asked this back a page, but has any one been able to encode Max Payne? Maybe this is just a trouble movie that needs to be addressed in other ways?

[midiwall]

Can you give the MediaInfo data on the frame rates of the source and the targets, please?

OK...I tried a DVD>Mobile conversion 3 different times using ver 6.2.1.8 and 7.0.4.0. I turned off "GPU Use" and also separately "CPU Turbo"...no change. I'm now trying it on verion 6.2.1.8 with BOTH turned off. I'll download 6.2.2.0and try again when it is done.

Tried it....still have audio sync issues.
