Import disc and gaps between chapters

(Related to another thread on out-of-sync voice on a VOB)
Comcast supplies to me a disk with 73 chapters. Sony will consume this disk and recognize the chapters.

Drag the chapters to the timeline. The video portions butt up OK, but the audio for each chapter is about a half-second short. That is, at the beginning of each chapter the video and audio tracks line up while at the end of each chapter the audio quits while the video goes on, all by itself. Within the chapter the audio and video are in sync.

So, is there something I can adjust, or otherwise do, to fix this? I tried to stretch the end point of a chapter but this does terrible things to the rendered video.

Thanks,
Jerome.

Yeah, this is a problem with some (not all) discs using the import function in Vegas.
One solution is to rip the disc in DVD Shrink (freeware), telling it to save as one big file in the settings. Then you should be able to bring the file onto the Vegas timeline and work with it normally.

Let us know how it works out!
