So the disc works fine on another PC? Strange... What are you using for playback? Also, try to update the firmware for your burner. Again, just a shot in the dark, but hopefully we can come up with a fix.

The audio seems to be running about 2 to 3 second faster the video. Could it be the pinnacle program when I capture it? What progame do you use?

I usually import to Vegas or TMPGEnc. Are you working with mini-dv or importing from discs?

I'm still running into the same problem. Looks like I'm going to throw in the towel on this. I want to thank you both for trying to help, but as a wise man once said "you can't teach a dead dog new tricks".

Wow, really sorry to hear that. I know as frustrated as I am over trying to figure anything out, it must be 10 fold for you.

It is. It seems like such I little thing. If my computer has all the right specs, the program should work.

Try and play back the dvd on different players, see what happens.

What about the bitrate? If they are rendered at too high bitrate, then that will cause them to go out of sync, be jumpy, stop etc

If you have POWERDVD, play it in that, and click on the Info button, it will show you the bitrates, copy and paste them in here, and we can take a look.

At the moment all I have is windows media player. I did have a power dvd xp disc, but have lost key code to enter.
