OK; Things have come a long way with this conversion process.

My issue of the day is:

Movie from VHS through Sony VX2000 video camera to laptop via firewire. I am able to capture the move fine (ends up at about 1.20 Gigs). The file is fine until I run it through IC. It creates a sync issue which I have checked by playing the IC finished file in QT on the PC as well as in the NX70V. Both ways there is a sync problem starting about 20 minutes into the movie. Using the STANDARD setting in IC and the 1hr 52 min movie comes out at 230 megs.
Incidently, I have run the Seinfeld episode through IC and there is no sync problem.

Thoughts? Suggestions? Anyone having sync issues with DVDs?

As usual, thanks Jay.

This process has come so far that I would hate to give up now.

Also, I am running the movie on the Clie from a 256 CF card but since the sync issue shows up when played in QT on the PC, that has nothing to do with it.

Try to re-encode the source first, like by using lower-bitrate in video and select codec in VirtualDub or other video editing programs.

jackho;

i am using the standard setting (216kb) on IC 1.1 so if i go any lower, i don't think it would be worth it.

also, can you elaborate on using virtual dub. i have it but see tmpgenc as the more useful app unless i am missing something.
