I have 25 FPS DivX5 video with MP3 audio, which I am trying to convert so that it would play on a stand alone NTSC DVD player.
I used AVISynth AssumeFPS(23.976) and created the MPEG-2 video stream via CCE 2.5. Pulldown.
Then I used BeSweet to convert the original file's audio (*.avi) to *.mp2 format while also extending the length from 25.00 FPS to 23.976.
No problems until here, both streams play normally. I mux them using bbMPEG and get a final joined a/v *.mpg stream. When I try to play it, though, the audio is present for about 10 seconds and then disappears. I am making 4 separate movies and the situation reoccurred on 3 out of 4. The fourth one multiplexed just fine and I have only one a/v stream that I can burn onto a DVD. The only thing different about the one that worked out was the fact that it was about 10 minutes longer than the others.
TMPGEnc refuses to accept the audio stream telling me that it is corrupt, but I am not sure why. TMPGEnc DVD Author plays all four episodes with audio but way out of synch--about 500 ms. I don't know of a way of fixing the synch issue in DVD Author and have not tried to author the final DVD there yet.
Reading up on the issue, I saw something about the need to extract *.wav audio via VirtualDub first and create the *.mp2 file from there, but was not able to find any more details about the issue.
First, how do I fix this audio problem. It appears that the problem is caused by audio.
Second, any feedback on the method for going from PAL to NTSC?
Thanks,
Haris
