Another out of sync situation with a twist

[Humble1]

Essentially I am having lip sync problems with the sound leading the lips. Nothing I have read on this BB to this point has helped.

Details:

XP Pro SP1 (re-install off of the CD)
and later with SP2 including all updates

CPU:AMD Athlon XP 2700+
500 MB ram
80 GB HD with 55 (or more) GB Free, Ultra DMA turned on
Screen Resolution 1024 X 768 Colour Quality 16 bit
All processes not needed turned off via the msconfig procedure.

Capture with both Capture Wizard 3.0 version 3.0.0.5 date Aug 14, 2003
using the ADS Instant 2.0 driver
version 1.40.000 Driver Date of 4/10/2003

and

VideoStudio 7 SE DVD using the DS Instant 2.0 driver and associated hardware



VideoSTudio8 Trial (Cannot capture as the patch provided by Ulead to ADStech evidently does not work with VideoSTudio8 Trial. I will follow up after the holiday)

Upper Field First

Property: Project (default)

All MPG's captured with either Capwiz or VS7 playback AOK with Capwiz, VS7 and VS8.
I tried Windows Media Player just for grins and the captured MPG worked .

However....
When I go from Clip to Project mode in either VS7 or VS8 I get serious out of sync. File length seems to have something to do with it as tehelonger the file the worse it is.

I created a video with Create a Video File in the Share options of VS7 and had the same problem.

Something that seems interesting to me is that the with the audio leading the video. As I understand it with the classic drop frame scenario the lips are ahead of the talking.

Any suggestions will be appreciated

In This one instance the lip sync problem with the sound leading the image was caused by my VCR when capturing VHS tapes and live broadcasts.
