Newb alert:
I know that after capturing in VDub, sometimes the aud/vid is a bit out of sync. VDub has a feature where you can "change framerate", to make audio/video match up, then resave as new avi file. I've done this before w/ small (1GB) DivX avis...
I just captured from VHS through VDub/Huffyuv, and ended up w/ an 11MB avi. I went back into VDub and edited out the commercial breaks, etc., then frameserved it over to TMPGEnc and created my MPEG2/SVCD.
In playing the SVCD in my player, I notice the audio is a bit behind the video. Damn!! Here's my question:
1) If I select "change framerate" in VDub, do i have to resave it...or can I just frameserve it to TMPGEnc?
2) If I do have to resave it first....that creates another 11GB avi file. Damn! Is this how most people do it?? I am worried 'cause that means if I capture a 2hr movie it could be 20GB file, then if I have to edit/resave, that means another 20GB...40GB just for one movie project???
3) Now that i have my MPEG2 w/ out-sync audio, is there any another way to sync it up (other than VDub/avi)? I noticed TMPGEnc has de-muxing MPEG tool, but I don't know how that would help the sync problem...
Thanks --

Dope!....I meant to say "11GB" not 11MB. 11MB would be nice though, for 45min of video  |

after you captured your vhs-stream and it's done (compression etc.), open this stream in vd...
- go to: video -> frame rate...
- click: 'change so video and audio durations match'
- audio -> direct stream copy
- video -> direct stream copy
- if you have space problems, then just overwrite your existing compressed stream by 'save as avi': existing_stream.avi
- otherwise give it an other name but then you'll have your mentioned space trouble
I'm not sure about TMPGenc but I think after you've set video and audio to 'direct stream copy' you can surely frameserve it...
but as always - correct me if I'm wrong

Silkotscha:
I tried it, but if you open "existing.avi" into VDub, and then you try to "set framerates to match aud/vid", and then try to save as "existing.avi"....VDub gives this error:
"AVIOutput: the process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process."
I am guessing that is VDub's way of saying that since it already has that file open and is going to perform a function on it (changing the framerate), then it has to leave that file open and so obviously can't save OVER it.
Hmm, I'll try setting it up to the new framerate and frameserving that over to TMPGEnc. But I wonder if that will work, b/c I would think FIRST VDUb would have to perform the framerate function and THEN it could frameserve it over. I don't know how it could frameserve over something it hasn't processed yet.
But I am a newb so if i am wrong about this, pls tell me. 
thanks |

Answered my own question. Tested it out by going in to VDub and setting the framerate to very slow (15fps), then frameserving it over to TMPGEnc. Sure enough, it works, you end up encoding a video which looks like it's in slo-motion and falls very far behind the audio track. So cool!, good to know it works w/o having to generate another 11GB avi file.
