DSS2/FFVideoSource cause sync issues, DirectShowSource/AVCSource do not

abyss616 · 14th August 2012, 03:38

I am trying to take video I've captured from my Hauppauge HD PVR and either convert to DVD or x264. My TS files drop frames every so often and I assume it's due to the capture device.

I will create a script in avisynth and have used several different sources to load the video. When I use DSS2 or FFVideoSource, the dropped frames cause the audio to get out of sync, but when I use DirectShowSource or AVCSource (after demuxing with DGAVCIndex), the audio is fine.

I have read that DirectShow and AVC are less than ideal when doing what I want to do so I'm asking if there are other options out there or a solution to my problem. Thanks.

I have the Hauppauge HD PVR also and I use DGIndexNV. Have not had any sync issues so far.

I know $15 isn't an exorbitant amount of money, but I'm hoping to stick with free tools. However, if I'm not able to get this worked out, I'll shell out the dough.

Are you able to open the .ts files with either ProjectX or HDTVtoMPEG2? Both programs give errors when either opening or processing the files.

Sorry, I have no experience with those.
