I have tried both of those, but there was no discernible difference or 
improvement in the output a/v sync. (Do they interact with the "-r 
ntsc-film" before the input file?)


(only ran this long enough to produce a couple minutes of output)

INFILE.vob -vf fps=24000/1001,telecine -async 1 -dc 9 -target ntsc-dvd

Other that dumping the packet headers to a large text file, are there any 
tools for looking at the PTS? While I'd like to solve the problem and get 
the content processed, I'd also like to understand what's going on.

Later,
