Audio Sync Issues

[jl8472]

Hello all,

 

I have been ripping DVDs I own to my hard drive so I can view them on my xbox360 using Windows Media Center. Media Import has done the best job that I can find of removing all the titles, keeping the video in superb condition, and maintaining DTS or 5.1 sound.

 

However, on a few DVDs, such as Step Brothers, Bankok Dangerous, and Hancock, the audio will slowly begin to unsync itself. By the end of the movie, it's usually about 5 secs behind. I've tried both .MPEG and .WMV formats (not .AVI since the 360 wont read it) and searched the web for another ripper but everything I have found has only allowed 2 channel stereo audio at best. I'm starting to lose hope. Has anyone else had this problem?

 

Also, on Apocalypto, it will run for 1 sec and then just end. Even tho it takes the full time to rip the movie like it was actually doing something.

 

I am running Vista Premium with 8gigs of ram, a terabyte of hard drive space, a quad core processor, etc so I'm not thinking it has to do with PC performance.

 

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance...

 

Oh, and I spent days googling and searching thru forums and everything else before starting this thread, hoping not to get flamed...

Since what you are doing is illegal you won't be getting help here.
