Problems with picture/sound sync. I put the product into operation yesterday. It worked straight away. But today I transferred a 4-hour VHS tape. But after a few minutes the lip sync is no longer correct and after more than three hours there is already a discrepancy of several seconds. During the preview everything was correct. The computer is equipped with an older Core i7, but with 24 GB RAM. No CPU-intensive programmes were running. Please help.

Question

Answer

My Logilink video grabber works well, although it was much cheaper than a device bought elsewhere. I used it to digitise Video8 tapes. These are PAL. With the previous device I had constant problems with A/V synchronisation. This was due to the bandwidth used. With the Logilink I no longer have these problems, but I had to accept that the device delivers 640x480 pixels for the 4:3 format, i.e. not exactly the PAL 625 lines. The "pixels" of the original VHS signal are not the same height as they are width (analogue TV screen). I assume that if I don't accept 640x480 pixels, there are small transmission problems. But the quality is sufficient for me.

If you watch the videos with e.g. VLC, you can correct the synchronisation.

I would be interested in your further experiences.
