  VSO & Audio/Video Sync issues

  Posted by Ryan Vick on July 30, 2009 at 5:32 pm

  Hi, I’m a novice DV/Firewire user who is trying to transfer DV
  recordings from DV cassettes using a ADS Tech Pyro 1394
  PCMCIA card and a Startech Firewire/DV end cable to the
  harddrive, using Microsoft Windows software Movie Maker
  Pro.

  I’m limiting the captures to 3 video choices, DV-AVI,
  “high quality video (ntsc)” and “high quality video (large)”.

  The source video was filmed straight to DV cassettes at
  LP or SP mode on a JVC DV camcorder (model #GR-D770U)

  I’m using VSO Convert X to DVD to make the DVD files
  (vob) from the avi/wma files that Microsoft Windows Movie
  Maker made on a laptop with plenty of
  HD space and with no other tasks/software running.

  I’ve been playing the VOB files (dvd) from the harddrive that
  VSO made using VLC Media Player, to test the dvd before
  I burn a dvd. This is where the problem is. The DV-AVI
  file on the menu plays ok, but I can’t make 212 mb files from
  1 min of video. The “high quality video (ntsc)” video is not
  syncing with the voices, and none of the other ones are.

  I just checked the source files, and they’re good. No sync problem.
  I play the “high quality video (ntsc)” file from it’s original file,
  a .WMA file, and it’s good, no sync problem.

  When the test works, I’ll use Verbatim discs.
  (Ultra DMA 2 is enabled)

  Obviously, the sync problem is introduced from VSO.

  What’s going on? Is this a problem with a specific version
  of VSO? Is there a setting I missed or need to change?

  The PCMCIA card came with Video Studio 9.

  Have you had this problem? What software do you use – or
  would you use?
  Maybe one of you can recommend a better capture software
  or dvd making software than what I’m using.

  What should I use instead of VSO?
