[LordTrace]

i riped both dvds to hd then renamed the second dvds vobs starting after the last vobs of dvd1 ... problem is every time i encode it the last half of the movie is out of sync :(

using DVD Decrypter 3.0
DVD2AVI 1.76

can anyone help :)

You should update your dvd decrypter to 3.1.4.0. I don't know if this will solve your problem though. Do you know if there are any angles in the second disc?

[LordTrace]

i have the newest version and i dont think there are any angles

thanks for your responce :)

I had the same problem, after some tests I found the video track on the first dvd is 12 frames longer than the audio track (region 1 ntsc), the fix was to trim them out in avisynth during the frame serve to CCE.

a statement like this should fix the problem

trim (0,y) + trim(x,0)

x = length of video track on first dvd in frames
y = x - 12


Regards Mad.

Funny, using the German PAL version, I get approximately 24 black frames between the 2 DVDs. Cutting those frames with VDub seemed to do the trick, and I don't notice any bad sync even up to the end of the film.

LOTR Extended is a pain in the ass for rip 'n encoding all around. I'm especially having a hard time getting the damn subtitles for the Elven scenes, especially since I've never done subtitles before. :rolleyes:

I am doing the extended version right now. I noticed that the vob-id at the end of disc one shows vob-id2 to be 0.15 seconds and 15 frames long. This could explain your syncing issue. If you strip in ifoedit with this blank spot at the end of disc one, dvd2avi will only save the audio for the first vob-id and skip vob-id2. When you mux everything back together, your second disc will be off this .15 seconds.

to skip those mentioned frames use this line in your avs script:

trim(0,151945)++trim(151970,292576)

the above line wokred for my german version. it skipps 24 frames and does NOT transcode (i.e. skips from frame 292576 till the end) those 20 minutes endcredits, which only lists the fan club members, which i'm really not very much interested in.
