audio out of sync with vdub + h.264

[mäger]

hi

i'm trying to compress a Lagarith Lossless avi file into h.264 video file, but the problem is that audio is not in sync with the video - it starts earlier than the video. i checked some options and there wasn't any delays set. only some interlace thing with a value of 3000, which i removed without any affect on the sync or anything else..

i'm using one pass - avg bitrate video and lame mp3 160kbps cbr audio...

xvid 2pass comes out fine, but that has not got the good quality picture...

thanks :5

Don't use VFW with x264.

I second the Inspector. Use a program with proper support for X264, such as MeGUI, Ripbot, or HDConvertToX, and if you still have problems with sync, then come back and talk to us.

[mäger]

sweet, thanks
ripbot looks very useful, but is it trial? it encodes only 1:47 of video...

MEGUi needs some .avs files...

[mäger]

argh... is the gordian gnot the only way to compress the large files then??
hdconvertox does something, but does not provide an output file.... ripbot encodes only 1:47 minutes and MeGui is just weird...
has there been any workflows posted here somewhere?

[Inspector.Gadget]

Any of the MPEG-4 Encoder GUIs work, provided that you use them correctly. At what point are you getting hung up?

[mäger]

it does not hang or anything(ripbot). it says all jobs finished down at the bottom, but when i open the file (mp4 for example), it's only 1:47 long.
some files froze the picture after 1:47, but the audio kept on playing. other files just ended @1:47 and now it doesn't make 2-pass mkv files at all :|

[Inspector.Gadget]

Post your logfile in a codebox in this thread.

[mäger]

it's weird that it didn't write any log for the last mkv file (cq 20 mkv)

this is for cq 22 avchd i think:
it seems that it only encodes 3275 frames of any video... :|

Assertion failed: dpb_output_delay < pow( 2, sps->vui.nal_hrd_parameters.i_dpb_output_delay_length ), file encoder/set.c, line 652Isn't it great when encoding GUIs include builds of x264 with unsupported, experimental, and broken patches? :rolleyes:

[mäger]

ahh.. what's the problem then?

still only 1:47..
uninstalled everything and then installed only couple of separate codecs..

audio has a little jibberish too, once in a while..

[mäger]

... it works fine with AppleTV option...
and v.1.13.3 doesn't work at all...

[mäger]

sweet stuff!
this exe fixed the problem! :

audio jibberish is probably caused by false encoding or smth..
