Sound jumpy at start on stand-alone player

vcdude · 6th March 2003, 03:27

All the svcds I make have jumpy/stuttery sound for the first couple of seconds on the Pioneer DV344. Play fine on PC. Has anyone else experienced this and is there a fix?

All problems belong in basics.

Might as well post your log file. Use cut and paste not attach.

How long does this stutter last?

Two things to try.

1. Raise your audio bitrate to at least 160. Having it set to 128 can cause issues with many DVD players.

2. Change the offset value to 4 or 5. I am not as sure about this one, but it's worth a try.
