KVCD: with my Standalone DVD Player, the Audio is 2 Seconds Behind?

Ok, I´ve made a kvcd and burned it to a cd, the cd plays fine with power dvd, but when I try it with my standalone dvd the audio is 2 seconds behind???
It´s encoded as a mpeg-2 (file extension was .m1v) and muxed as a svcd, does it make a difference if it´s 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz?

It says in avi2mpg2, warning svcd framerate should be 25 fps or 29,976 fps, is this true, that could be the problem!

Hi CheronAph,

Demux your mpeg file, run pulldown.exe against your demuxed .m1v (or.m2v!), and remux your new video again with the .mp2.
That should fix your problem.

Where´s pulldown.exe, in bbmpg?

What do I do with the program? The settings?

Here's a link: http://www.inwards.com/inwards/?id=36
It includes a readme.txt file.
It's a command line tool. There's a GUI front end, but I'm not sure right now where it is. Just read the .txt file. It's very easy to use.

I got the GUI, I´m just burning a test movie, I´ll tell you what happens!

Well, what do you know, it works! This brings me to another question, should I do this only when the source is 23,976 fps and I want to mux it as a svcd, if I do, can I do this already in TMPGEnc?

You can do it with TMPEG, only if you're encoding MPEG-2. If you're encoding MPEG-1, TMPEG won't let you do 3:2 pulldown. With pulldown.exe you can flag any file, either MPEG-1 or MPEG-2.
I'd rather encode at 23.976fps with TMPEG, and let pulldown.exe do the little magic

BTW, you don't need 3:2 pulldown if your target is a (K)VCD.
