Hi guys, Wondering if anyone could help solve my problem...I have created a svcd (burned with nero 6 with all plugins) and when i play the svcd on my pc the lip sync is perfect however when I play it on my toshiba dvd player (says it can play vcd/svcd) the lip sync if off by around.5-1 second but its really noticable! Is there any solution to this? Btw i burnt cd at 8x and 52x and there was no differance between the 2. Many thanks.
right i may be wrong but ive had this problem and found it is to do with your dvd player i had a film it worked perfect on 1 and on another it had lipsync and toshiba are a touchy player at the best of times and i brun mine at 32x with no problems
If the Bit rate is A bit to high for your DVD Player to handle it will seem like the audio and Video are out of Sync ,Because your DVD Player can decode the Audio faster than it can decode the video so if the Bitrate is a Little too high in the Video there will be a slight delay between the audio and video.... The only real solution is to use a Mpeg encoder that has Better Bitrate controll, If you are useing the Encoder in Nero then that is your Problem as the Encoder in Nero is well known as being the worst encoder ever created ,Tmpgenc also has Bad Bitrate controll but it does have good Quality.... Try encodeing your Files to Mpeg2/SVCD useing a Mpeg encoder Like the "MainConcept Encoder" which produces very good Quality and also has very good Bitrate controll compared to other encoders..Also try useing a CBR encodeing method as opposed to a VBR encodeing method..... Good Luck
thanks for help guys! Minion what bitrate would you recommend??? I have had alook in dvd player manual and it says it can play mpeg1/mpeg 2 at 48Khz/16bit and mpeg 1 video cd @ 44.1/16bit
It isn"t really the Bitrate you use, it"s that the encoder Ignores the Bitrate that you set and uses a Higher Bitrate..... SVCD Has a Max Bitrate of 2500kbs and VCD has a Max Bitrate of 1150kbs....
It's probably the player. You should take your discs that work fine in the PC to a friends house that you know has no issues with his/her player and test it before assuming that it's bitrate or whatever else. My sister is using some piece of junk from Radio Shack, CH Home 300 or something... anyway, it's getting progressively worse being out of sync playback. Discs play fine on any other player. I read on another site about that particular model and it seems others were having the exact same problems. I'm guessing the first poster was correct in your case too.
THANKS villain Yeah im taking back toshiba tommorow and getting exchaning it for a samsung dvd player. Ill let you know how it goes. I can play vcd perfect on toshiba but loose alot of quality converting svcd -> vcd
took back toshiba and bought a sony..svcd runs perfect now sound quality much better!! recommended dvd player!
