There must be someone out there that can help me with this problem.
I am capturing a 30 minute TV using the ATI multimedia centre 7.1 and the
radeon ddr 64mb card.
The sync between audio and video is fine on all 4 parts of the 30 min show.
HOWEVER, when I am merging them into one file using TMPGenc the final
product (one file) has the sound a few seconds behind the video.
This never used to happen but all of a sudden it is happening.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem ? It is ruining my capturing :-(

I find that audio synch problems are usually caused by dropped frames, in my
case.  I'm using an ATI also.  Figure out why you're suddenly dropping
frames while stitching clips together and you'll have it fixed.  Did you
install any new software that might be running something in the background?
Have you defragged your destination or source disk recently?  Do so if you
haven't.

Anything that is writing to your source or destination disk while you're
encoding can cause dropped frames.  I used to get dropped frames during
capture just from moving the app window from one side of the screen to the
other!  Now I've reformatted and have a clean disk for source, destination,
and virtual memory, and hardly ever drop a frame.

Also, double check your output settings on TMPGEnc.
