BD Ripper (3D Plus) 7.0.6.7 Audio Sync Problem

[DavidHart]

I have an Audio sync problem with some of my blu-ray disks. The Audio is ahead of the picture by about 1/4 of a second from the beginning and stays the same to the end of the movie.

The disks that I am having problems with are:

Gamer
XMen Origins Wolverine
GI Joe
2012

I have DVDFab set to mkv.audiocopy, 2-pass, fixed file size, only display forced subpicture, direct render to video, remove HD Audio, DXVA GPU Acceleration, latest ATI Drivers (10-5 suite). I've also tried to set it to 1-pass with the same results.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

David

Please try to set memory use to "Max" instead of "Auto" in "Convert" part of the Settings. Please let me know if it makes difference for you.

7.0.6.7 Audio Sync Problem

I set the memory to Max up front after installing DVDFab, both for the first time and during each upgrade. I have verified that memory is still set to Max.

I don't know if this will help but my system is:

Windows 7 64-bit
Intel Quad Core i7 2.8Ghz (overclocked to 3.8GHz)
12GB Triple-channel RAM
Sapphire ATI Radeon 5870 1GB DDR5

Just to be clear, the audio is ahead the same amount from beginning to end. There are no video or audio artifacts, everything is clean. Other Blu-Rays work fine with the exception of the above (at least so far).

Thanks,

David

DavidHart ,
there were reports earlier about similar issue when source was muxed with audio delay originally, and DVDFab couldn't recognize it resulting with flat a/v desync. It's my understanding that devs are aware of it and fix is coming (I don't know timeline though). In a meanwhile, if you have some content already converted, to avoid re-conversion you can use MKVmerge (little free program - google it, download and install). You can remux your content factoring in audio delay - it would take just a few minutes. You can guess the delay or put your source video into MediaInfo (another free program) to see actual delay.

IPopov50:

So, what you are saying is that the title was originally muxed with a delay built in, say .25 seconds, at the beginning of the film. This delay is being dropped during the DVDFab conversion process because DVDFab doesn't recognize a field setting. As a result, when it remuxes the A/V into the MKV container, it doesn't carry that delay over. So the whole soundtrack is then advanced that .25 seconds.

Since there is a similar bug that has been identified (won't know until a fixed version has been released), is there some place, either on the web site or part of the release notes, where I can find a list of bugs that are being worked on? Including the workaround that you mentioned? I'm just curious because I don't want to bug you guys about known issues.

I'll try the workaround that you mentioned and let you know how I make out.

Thanks!!!

There is no published list of known bugs, they are normally fixed very quickly. Some are listed as "minor fixes" in the release notes, so try each new release (e.g the v7.0.6.9 Beta that is available now).
