I am sorry for the messup. I am posting it correctly this time :). I find that the generated MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 have perfect A/V sync (Thanks to people here for helping me with it). I find that the MPEG-4 (two pass) has A/V sync issue. The audio slowly drifts behind the video. In the beginning, both are in sync. I am using two pass because I want to get the best quality possible at a given bitrate of 250 kbps. We want to stream it over broadband. Noticable lag starts occuring in the last 15 minutes of the clip. The lag is 0 at the beginning, becomes 4 seconds at 45 minutes and becomes close to 10 seconds at 60 minutes. I wanted to know how to correct it. > > What program(s) were you using to play the .mp4 file?

I am using MPEG-4 Video and AAC Audio in MP4 container and using quicktime to play it.

Thanks, then I do not have to bother about the DV capture.
