Belight Delay Question

[Numer0bis]

I've got a audio file from dvd2avi which inidcates a delay off -452ms. Now in belight he automatically checked: Delay: -452ms. What does this mean exactly?. That it removes the delay or keeps it?. Because I want mux the audio stream later with my video in virtual dub and when it removes the delay I can just mux the audio with the video and everything should be sync. If not, I must inidcate a delay in virtual dub.

Hope anyone understands my problem.

Sry for my horrible english but I am still going to school and learning it:)

The delay specified into your filename (this is the case for dvd2avi as you noticed but also with dvddecrypter when you rip the vob files) refers to a gap (in milliseconds) which can have when the video stream starts. To avoid sync issues, we can specify this value when we transcode audio stream or when we mux the files.

You can fix this delay when you transcode your file or when you mux your A/V files. But if you set the delay when you transcode the audio stream, it's not necessary to put it again when you mux the Audio and Video streams.

So due the fact that belight set it automatically I dont need to set it again in virtual dub ?

[Kurtnoise]

yes. ;)

Another delay question. My BeLight is alive and has a mind of its own. Evil, of course.
You cannot set the delay manually. It always tries to get it from the file name. If you change the value manually (both checkbox and number), it changes it back once you've moved the mouse into the listbox area. And if there is no delay value in the file name you are stuck with the zero delay which you cannot modify either, unless you cut off your mouse.
I'd suggest BeLight to set the automatic delay when you add a file to the queue but not touch it ever since.
Say, what do you think about this, Kurtnoise13?
Thanks.

which version did you use ?

Sorry it took me so long to answer. Short attention span. Went chasing butterflies.
I am on 0.2.2.0 beta 8. The official, not a daily build.

Why not using a daily build ?

There will be a new beta soon....next year. :D

The daily build works fine, thank you.
