How to synch Audio with VHS video

Post by Alexander2010 »

Hi guys, I have problem with sync of audio and VHS video. Flac or any audios everytime longer as VHS video. How synched it? I tried in Sony Vegas to do with elastique and classic method, but it has not turned out. Can anyone me please explain?
I have maked a lot reauthoring with LM audio and digital videos but they are all with no problem to synch, but sometimes digicam sources are strange, out of synch how VHS.
Now I want do audio upgrade to VHS video, I do the start of song in synch, after I do stretch, but I get everytime horribly audio because of compression. Some videos not available for synch, because if I synch the start, after stretch I get the normal end too, but in the middle out of synch((( Or general if I synch the end after the start then the start out again((( Any ideas?

You just have to struggle with Vegas imo :) Cut new audio track to shorter parts and stretch. If this doesn't work, cut to even smaller pieces. Etc :P
But, once you have 2 or 3 tracks, you might see the way how to do the rest. Probably video is sped up or down same on the whole length .

Or rip original vhs audio and send both to Bellower. He's great in that. But I haven't seen him for a long time...

Thanks for the help. I tried cut new audio of parts, but between parts are clicks because of cuts( so certainly won't go are audible.
I don't want to give anybody it because I want to learn.

You can remove 'clicks' between. They are just faded out and next one is faded in, automatically by Vegas. Change fade offset to complete zero. Should do the trick and try to make it like this: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/59 ... d01jy.png/

Yes, digicam videos are bad sometimes they dont have that "normal" speed or have a glitch what usually the audios and videos. I guess the speed is not the same of the vhs in this case.
I also had this different speed problem when I got audio from iriver. Blacker is really professional in this and could count and change the speed of the audio in goldwave (but I guess the other audio programs also can make it.)

I personally cant make it :( try to change the speed of the audio in an audio editor program ;)

If Vegas faded out and in between tracks then I not get "clicks", Vegas smooth this "moment". Just when I change fade to 0 I get "click". If I delete 2ms you can anyway hear that audio is not ok at this place.

Pretty much the above, what Chris said. It is a HUGE pain in the ass to sync a vid that is out of sync in that manner. You will probably have to cut the audio into several different pieces and sync up each one. The synching isn't the hardest part IMO, it's finding the area to begin the cut(s). And don't worry if there are some clicks and such. As Bernd (norbinho) said, there is much more to life than authoring DVDs, so don't sweat it!!
