XMS-888 with Firmware 1.2 Audio Question.

[wiggy]

Is anyone still experiencing audio synch issues with 1.2.

i have a movie that was having audio synch problems with 1.1 (hitting the << then play resynched it) how ever i noticed in a previous post people were saying the the synch issue was fixed in 1.2. I have flashed the new version and still have the same issue. it can be fixed again by the same method however is a pain. anyone else seen this.

Yeah.. i noticed that it happens sometimes. And I have to remember the time spot it's at... stop and replay it and jump to the time spot to continue...

You wont get rid of all audio sync issues, the upgrade seems to handle the avi mux type better, unfortunately that doesn't mean perfectly. Another way I found to reduce sync issues is to make sure the unit is set to auto mode in preference to pal or ntsc this is possible due to the way frame rates are interpreted.

I've found that pressing '<' and then '>' usually re-syncs the audio, I think it's only on Variable Bit rate stuff, so if it's a file your making yourself, make sure that you use Constant Bit-Rate (CBR).

Another thing is if you want to keep VBR use nandub to mux the file and make sure the interleaving factor is by frames rather than by time. Nandub hasn't let me down but avimux has caused a few issues.
