I've ssearched and found a bunch of solutions for this isssue when the source media are movies created in iMovie or FCP, but not from a .tivo file, and since I'm not authoring the audio or video, those solutions don't really apply.
When I'm converting a .tivo file and saving to a disc image, then burning image to disc, I get a noticeable sync issue with audio leading the video. I have reencoding turned off, I have tried with both PCM and Dolby Digital selections in the custom preferences with the same result (even tried locking hte audio to 192 kbps rather than auto).
The source .tivo file shows no sync issue when played with Toast Video Player. I don't have any software that can open the BDMV file for playback, so I can't verify the sync at that point in the process, but I don't think there's any way to lose sync during the burn to disc process so I must assume (until told different) that the issue must be introduced during the burn to disc image
The issue starts immediately on playback and there is no noticeable "drift".
The source video is MPEG-2, 1920x1080, 29.97 fps, audio is Dolby Digital 5.1, 48kHz.
My actual procedure is to drop the .tivo file directly into Toast > Blu-ray Video, set the custom parameters to reencode off (ridiculous I have to set this every time I open Toast), I've even tried leaving it as MPEG-2, which is a little better but still noticeable, at least leaving it as MPEG-2 has the video leading the audio, which the brain interprets better.
