'Could use a lil' help w/ TCPMP &/or CorePlayer video playback...

[kain144000]

Hey, Everyone,
I could use a lil' help w/ TCPMP and Coreplayer video playback. The video runs and looks good, but the audio is noticeably out of sync. It does sound good, however. I've got it rendering w/ Raw Framebuffer on both, videos are converted to 340x280 @ near original (high) quality w/ Pocket DVD Studio v4.0, and my "Buffering" prefs are as follows:

CorePlayer v1.1.1 build 1600
Normal buffer size: 2400kB
Preload at underrun: 70%
Preload for audio: 64kB

TCPMP v0.72RC1 (w/ Flash Video bundle v1.4.4)

Normal buffer size: 1184kB
Preload at underrun: 3%
Preload for audio: 64kB

These are pretty much the defaults, but before I'd start foolin' around w/ stuff here, I thought I'd get some input from those who have up-to-par video playback. 'Not too familiar w/ media players, codecs, buffering, etc.

Thanks, Everyone, w/ the advent of GPS and RevA, this problem's been the only thing stopping my tele' from being a beast...A BEAST!!! :P

I have the exact TCPMP & Videobundle that you have and at stock settings my video/sound playback is great. I do not use these (2) in conjunction with anything else however...

Have you tried starting from default settings? It seems that everyone will find a particular nitch and only personal settings suffice; the variables for ideal playback vary by current running programs (if applicable), processor speed, TCPMP settings, video type, site, device settings, etc...

I know this commentary does not place a firm resolution into your hands but understand that while it is possible to find generic settings that accomodate about 70% of the population, the other 30% may have a tedious time dialing in their settings in for ideal playback. I leave mine at default and it seems to surprisingly play well at these settings...

if its just your audio and video are off sync, check under advance settings. there is a parameter there to off set them by ms. i run mine at -35 which is almost spot on.

Do you have the Out Of Sync problem with other video's other than the ones you made? The reason I ask is because most Video formats have/use the "key" or "Index" options. This should sync the Audio and Video together automatically. A common use of this is to sync every 15-30 seconds.

What video Format are you encoding in?
Check the options and see if there is anything like what I mentioned.

On another note:

These guys and Google says that Pocket DVD Studio seems to have this particular problem. Infact in the thread above the one guy switched to FairUse

I'd converted them to .avi using the Divx v6.22 codec. BTW, scoobdude's suggestions worked wonders w/ "Manual A/V offset +/-" @ 27 msec. Not purrfect, but damn close. What does everyone else use to convert vids to 320x240? I'd rather everything ran great w/o having to change advanced settings.

Hey, any ETA on that S/W fix from HTC? They's said sometime this month, right?

DUDE! I have been trying to figure out how to get my audio and video synched up for a few weeks now. I put A/V offest to -400 and BAAAAM! Works like a charm! Thank you pctek!
