DVDA3 audio out of sync - howto

I think I accidentally found a way to get the audio and video out of sync with DVDA3.

I burned a DVD and at about three-quarters of the way the audio suddenly was behind the video by about 4 seconds. Most disconcerting - thought it was a ripple issue.

About that point in time, in the burn, I opened up Firefox and XP did the attack the page file thing where the Firefox window was partly painted for about 4-5 seconds while XP paged madly. The page file is on a different disk from the prepare folder and the box has 1gig of memory on it. I think it is just an “XP thing”. All the other DVD’s I burned of the same project were fine. Live and learn.

Perhaps this explains some of the occasional comments about audio out of sync on a burned DVD.

Interesting - have seen Firefox suddenly take away all the processor power and hanging a XP machine but getting the audio out of sync is new to me.

i normally see IE hang my computer for a few seconds, but I've never had this be an issue while burnign a disk.

that doesnt make any technical sence: the audio/video are combines into 1 file. they can't be put off synce then.

most likely something durring the project prep stage.
