DVD Studio Pro Audio Alignment Problem, Help!

[Noah Kadner]

Are you sure you exported exactly in sync with the version of the video that’s on the DVD. And are you checking on a completed DVD? The Simulator preview in DVDSP is not always accurate in sync.

Yes, I did watch back a burned DVD and the problem is still there.

Yes, I did sync it up in Final Cut Pro, then exported it out through compressor (and even tried as a plain old .AIFF file) and when I drag it into DVD studio Pro, unaligned with the same video I synced it to. Again it’s in various places, not just the whole thing being off, it will be on in one place, and off in another. But if I go back to my FCP timeline… both of those places are on and are fine.

This is just really bizarre!

i have a problem with the audio starting late in every dvd i make. i export a quicktime from fcp. the quicktime plays fine. the video and audio start at the exact same time. nothing unusual. then i use compressor to make the m2v file. but when i burn it in dvd studio pro, the first few frames of the audio is always missing. when it starts it’s in sync but i can’t seem to get the audio to start when it should.

does anyone know why and how to deal with this? thanks. m.

My problem is with one 2 minute scene which is 3 quarters of the way in on a 2 hour movie we filmed. On the FCP timeline it is all perfect. When I burn it two a dvd the audio is out of sinc at the scene. It puts everything else out after it. I use IDVD
