        You say the sound is 'late' - meaning that you see something happen
        and then 5 or 6 seconds later you hear the sound.

        If audio data had been lost/cut you would hear the soundeffect first 
        and then later see the action.

        That sounds like several seconds of video frames were lost.  This would
        have the effect I describe above - you see something earlier than it
        sounds because video has been lost.

        Sounds like a frame dropping problem somehwere.  6 seconds would be
        ~150 frames.

        What are you using to record?  I can't say I've heard of any problems
        with quality DV converters (Canopus is a good example). 

        I haven't heard of this problem before.  Can you re-do the capture?
