Whenever I burn a movie to a DVD disc, the sound is nearly always out of synch.I have tried different makes of disc,and different burning software,but the result is nearly always out of synch.I think there may be a problem with my drive because last night I watched a movie directly from my hard drive, and it went out of synch,but if I fast forward a couple of minutes and the rewind back to where it was, the movie was back in synch.This is happening to nearlyeverything I try to watch.Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

Sounds to me like either your PC or the software you are using.



What software do you use to encode the Video files ?

Question Author
I have been using Nero for a couple of years without too much trouble.I originally thought it might be Nero so I went out and purchased a new version, and exactly the same things happens.
I find this as well, it may be because of the films. There are some really bad copies going round at the moment. If I find anything out will keep you posted.

I used to use Nero and had the same problem, if you look around a lot of people have the same issue and it's something to do with XP sp2 and Nero not playing well together.


Best bet is to use a 3rd party (avi2dvd is pretty good) to change the original movie file into a .VOB (DVD Format) file and then you can check it before you write off anymore disks.


Hope this helps.
