I haven't been so frustrated in a very long time. I've been trying to figure this out for two days straight. I appreciate all your suggestions, but I have tried everything that was suggested about the audio sync at least 10 times each.
![Crying or Very sad :cry:](./images/smilies/icon_cry.gif)
I made sure everything was checked off, even in that "Preload MS" button under streams and NO luck with Lame MP3. I definitely did try clicking the button "Change so video and audio durations match" and I THOUGHT it would work, but the frame rate is the same.
I cannot even set the audio track to delay to the appropriate time because it will just come out too short or too long. Do you think this could be some sort of glitch? Of course other types of Audio like CCITT-A LAW works perfectly (I checked the audio wavs and the uncompressed and the compressed sync EXACTLY the same). I was browsing on the site to see if anyone had the same problems and nothing that was suggested for them worked for me. I did notice that the people who used this method tended to use VirtualDub 1.6 or higher. I use Virtualdub
MOD 1.5.10, but I don't think that would make a difference. I did notice that VirtualDub has a specific pull down menu for "Audio" and there is a "Source Audio" option checked which I'm not sure if I have.
Scintilla, could you please give me a link to the Radium MP3 codec? I searched on google, but I couldn't seem to find a working link. It doesn't seem to be used a lot for AMVs though... In fact, I've never seen anyone use it. Everyone uses Lame. I really hope I don't need to stick with uncompressed audio. It takes up so much more space...
If anyone wants to experiment with this with one of their clips I'd be
forever grateful (trust me!). Here is what the example file looks like before I encode the audio (It makes no difference if the audio is attached to the video or not. Same results for me):
And After the Lame MP3 Encode:
You can see the difference when I import into Vegas (Yes, I dared to import an MP3 into Vegas for a pic

)
The other codec (CCITT-A LAW) that I tried out matches the Uncompressed Wav 100%. I used this method before and I always could have sworn that the sync was slightly off (If I can figure this out I will re-encode them) and now I know it is. Could there be something I'm not clicking or that I'm missing/messing up? Please, please, respond if you can. I really don't want to have to stick with PCM audio for my final. Thanks a lot for reading this and trying to help me out.
