    Yo well I download them as they are released in the US (Im a UK dude) They are a loverly quality and stuff but one thing bugs me like mad. Over time the sound gets out of sink with the actual images. Is there a way to prevent this? I just have to stop and fast foward it but im a perfectionist :)

    Hiya!

    Snakegod, I had the same problem. As far as I am aware the issue is due to the encoding used to create the DivX. as a result the A/V sync can be out, and on some of the episodes I have got, it can be up to 9 seconds!!

    I have posted on here how I overcame it, and the link is here http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/325917

    I hope this helps!! If not message me and I will help you.

    I had this problem too and all I had to do was download a freeware called AVI-MAX Gui.. Just open that, drag the file into the window, click the box below and press start, and it'll create a whole new file with the everything working perfectly..

    Usually after you encode a movie for DVD, iPod, PSP, or other format, the audio loses sync, to keep it perfect, match the FPS rates of the origianl and the re-encode, if it happens on the original XviD then the original author of the XviD messed up, FPS rates should stay the same, or shouldn't change significantly
