[Silver Stallion DVDs]

I did not write down the Architect warning messages, but none were serious enough to not let me continue. I've got 29 more days of the trial period to figure it out.

The video file that I am working with is from VHS master > JVC HR-VP628U > Composite out > Hauppauge Win TV PVR2 (MPEG2 12.0 MBit/sec). This is the file that has been difficult to author, but I finally got it.

I don't think the synching problem is because of the program you used to capture the video/audio streams - it's almost certainly with the Hauppauge Win TV PVR2. I'm not saying that's a bad capture device - only that the capture interface is almost always the source of this kind of problem.

I use a Canopus ADVC 110 (and previously the ADVC 100) and after literally 1,000+ hours of capturing video - I have never had a single problem with synching (unless the original video source was out of synch).

Having to try so many times to get the project to finish properly sounds very peculiar - I've never had a problem like that. But at least you got it.
