I have been using mediaportal for a long time.. I got a new system so i could run 1080p stuff, h.264 - and it has been working fine for months up until lately.. Im not sure if my wife went in and 'clicked' something, but now after a time the audio and video on h.264 720p or 1080p mkv files gets out of sync. Supper annoying. Its happening on files i KNOW worked previously - and i havent made any codec changes, or anything like that..

So, to try and fix the problem, i installed the latest nvidia drivers, removed my codec pac, and reinstalled the latest codec pac... haali splitter, fdshow etc.. same problem. Theres no viruses or spyware, or anything like that that i can find... Any ideas??

It's a known problem with 24Hz movies going out of sync while watching. Just have a look here:

You can also find the development status in the bug tracker system:

I had this problem some months ago, then changed to vista and used ReClock as audio renderer. I would not dare to state that this is a generel solution, but for me playing 24Hz movies works pretty well yet.

It appears to happen mostly when I use fast forward.. and it doesnt just happen in MP, it happens in media player as well.

Anyone have any ideas why mkv audio video would go out of sync like this? its both with media player classic and with mediaportal.. it seems to have just started to do this within the last 2 months.. I dont know if my wife screwed up some settings or not.. boo

for me it looks like a problem in MPC-HC H.264 codec. I have the out of sync only with this codec and only if it decodes by SW.

OK.. strangely enough, it was a problem with the refresh rate.. even though it was happening outside of mediaportal - I changed the refresh rate up to 60hz, and viola - problem solved.. i didnt even bother with that - since it was happening in mpc and wmp..
