Problems with lotr see

[andeh]

Managed to rip and encode the theatrical lotr fine since it was a single CD. Tried to do the same thing with the SEE one, and the best result I get is the first 'half' (those contents from the 1st DVD) is perfect, but the second 'half' (those from the 2nd DVD) has audio slightly out of sync.
I'm using DivX 5.02, Gordian Knot 0.27 and all the programs with it (DVD Decryptor to rip, DVD2AVI to create project).
Tried just selecting the contents of the first DVD with DVD2AVI, then clicking add and adding the second DVD, no joy.
Also attempted to 'join' the whole thing as one vob by using vobsub to re-write (I think?) the files and edit the ifo (from - http://ifoedit.wh.fr0zen.com/joinclip.html#joindbl )
Basically I just want the thing as DivX without the audio sync problems.
I know I could just rip the DVD's seperatly and re-join them, but was just wondering if there was anyway to do it all in one?
Thanks

I had that same problem (though i made a 2cd backup). Anyway, i encoded the whole movie to 1400mb. Then i split it in half (2x700mb) and i discovered that middle of the movie is almost the same as the middle of the file. So it doesn't really matter if you encode the whole movie or the 2 discs seperately in terms of quality. :cool:

btw I encoded the normal credits at 20%, but i cut out the fanclub credits

I believe your problem is a known issue with DVD2AVI. There is no way around this bug, but to do the two sets of Vobs as seperate encodes.

There is a circumvention -- remove the 5 (or 6) extra frames with the AviSynth Trim filter.
