Actually, I think I found my problem: I was viewing the AVI while it was 
still encoding, and the A/V sync was very bad. (This was also true if I 
copied the partially-completed AVI to another computer for playing). But 
if I let it complete (approx. 30 hours) it is actually okay. I think 
it's still slightly off -- on the order of a constant 125ms -- but not 
way off in a non-constant amount. Perhaps it was the lack of completed 
AVI index that was the root cause?
