Hello, I am a long time lurker,first time poster. I am having a bit of an issue getting a final copy ready for convention submission and wondered if I could get help.
Just a bit of info before hand:
The AMV is progressive and is running at 24 fps, so I need to switch it to 29.97 fps...fair enough. The 24 fps that is exported from Premiere and encoded through VDub is great.
Problem: Everytime I encode through VirtualDub and convert to 29.97 the footage is running too fast to sync properly with my audio track.
Next I tried going to TMPGEnc and encoding the AVS file into MPEG 2. I read through the extremely informative guide provided by Scintilla and followed it step by step with the exception of adding leader (will explain as to why). Now the problem is that the audio starts too early and is yet agian completely out of sync with the footage.
I have no idea why it is doing this. The only thing I can possibly think of is the fact that I added about 5 seconds of dead space in the begining of my Premiere timeline to act as a leader. However the AVI that is exported from Premiere plays fine on my media player and Virtual Dub. So I am stumped as for what to do.
Is there a way to get a 29.97 converted AVI out of Virtual Dub without the sync issue?
What issue am I having with TMPGEnc to make the audio start too early?
I'll list some AVS scripts below, maybe that help figure things out.
Script for VDub export:
AVISource("D:\AMV's\Turn the Page Perfect.avi")
ConvertToYV12()
ConvertFPS(29.97)
BicubicResize(720,480)
deen("a2d",4,12)
Undot()
vmToon(strength=0)
Script for TMPGEnc export:
AVISource("D:\AMV's\Turn the Page Perfect.avi")
ConvertToYV12()
AssumeFPS(23.976,true)
BicubicResize(720,480)
deen("a2d",4,12)
Undot()
vmToon(strength=0)
AudioDub(last,WAVSource("D:\AMV's\Turn the Page.wav"))
SSRC(48000)
If you need anymore info let me know.
Thanks everyone for the help.
