RMVB (RealMedia) Totally Out of Sync

MacMini · 2007-11-15, 09:09

It started happening with the recent builds. I hadn't changed codec, but tonight I played with it for a while, installing and uninstalling codecs, but to no avail.

The Video is getting way ahead of the audio.

As I said, it's a new development for me, so I am thinking something happened in the new SVN builds.

I am enclosing my logs.

A bit off topic but why would anyone actually use that codec!

I am not saying I like it, but there are a bunch of older and not so old files on my server....

Check the net, there are still common enough. And it used to work perfectly in MP until recently, so I hope it will again.

Solved. Installed the final RC3. Still sync issue.

So, I unistalled K-Lite, cleaned the registry. Installed the latest Vista Codec Pack 4.53 Beta 2.

Changed the codecs from Cyberlink to ffdshow for Video and from Cyberlink to AC3 for Audio.

Something worked, because now I have perfect sync with RMVB:-)
