A little tip:
many people ignore post with special characters or multiple '!' or '?' in it. So please edit your post and kill the multiple questionmarks. After that you should read the Sticky about how to make a good post.

[markrb]

Sometimes when this happens it's an audio issue.
Play both the mp2 and mpv in Media Player and see if they show the exact same length.

Another thing I noticed awhile ago when doing an AVI conversion was that I needed to shut off ADD SVCD scan offset in the advanced BBmpeg tab. It only ever happened once to me, but I remember one other said he had the same problem once as well.

BTW I grew up in Roslindale, hung out in West Roxbury and went to school in Hyde Park.

a bean town boy.... thanks for the response.
well i think you have pointed me to the problem..

Encoded_audio_1.mp2 ......... 29:09
Encoded_Video_CCE_NTSC.mpv .. 1:54:30
Pulldown_Encoded_Video_NTSC.mpv 1:54:30

not really sure what the pulldown is actually for , but i will search for info.

[markrb]

Pulldown is a flag that makes a 23.976 encode play like a 29.97 (standard TV framerate). Movies are made at 24 fps and TV at 30 so pulldown lets you watch movies made for the theater on your TV. Unless you live in Europe and then it's different.
Simple explanation and in truth there is more to it, but I think it's enough for most people.
