I have 2 major problems with AutoGK (latest stable version):
1. Processing small mpeg2 files is fine. However I recorded a 2GB mpeg2 movie from my TV card Hauppauge DEC2000-T. Then I tried using AutoGK on it to generate a 700MB divx file. The process was fine, however I found that past half-way through the avi film the sound went totally out-of-sync and stayed out-of-sync. The sound is played first 3 seconds before the actual events.
Can someone double-check that this has nothing to do with AutoGK processing a 2GB file and AutoGK should be able to handle a 2GB mpeg2 DVD file fine?
The film was off Channel 4. Yes, that means it includes annoying adverts throughout the whole film. However I used the DigitalTV (TV card Hauppauge DEC2000-T software) pause feature to pause between the breaks/adverts. My hypothesis is that the immediate/sudden cuts/pauses throughout the 2GB movie has caused the movie frames to slow down while the sound stays the same.
2. If I, however, press stop (by accident) when I meant to pause recording, then I'll get my video recording in segmented files. Luckily AutoGK says it will take/process multiple files and output a single avi divx file (as long as we name them *_1.mpg, *_2.mpg, etc.) I have 2 300MB mpg2 files and I put this through AutoGK to output 1 avi divx file. The avi is perfectly fine until it gets to the joining point. It totally goes out of sync from then on. Is this AutoGK or me? Is there anything I can do to perfectly join the mpg2 files together and see if AutoGK will do better?
Or should I go back to the old Gordian Knot way?
Help!
