[mythtv-users] Re: Writing VCDs

[Mike Smith]

An update to my previous email.  I went back to the
original .nuv file I was working with.  I used the
patched version of mplayer to watch it.  The
.nuv file,  played with patch mplayer has the
same sync problem.  Audio falls behind the video.

    Thanks,

     Mike
