does anybody know how to realign audio and video on a movie that the audio has slown down slightly or something so that the sound no longer matches the persons lips, right now the video i downloaded starts out fine but as it goes on it gets worse and worse, its now up to like 1 second difference from when you hear some one say something and when you see them say it

Im sure virtualdub can do this if i remember correctly.

It sounds as if the video isn't running at the correct frame rate - if you don't know what it should be I think virtualdub can calculate it by matching the audio length to the video length.

(The other possibility is someone reencoded the audio using a source with a variable bitrate - you'll know if this is the case if the audio drifts in and out of sync. I'm not sure how to solve this one.)

If you play the video with VideoLAN (www.videolan.org) you can adjust it by a certain amount of milliseconds when you need to.

(If what you downloaded was the TCM release of Lost S02E03, you might want to adjust by -500 ms every 10 minutes or so.. or better yet, download the repack or LOL release)
