out of sync dvd

[billbrennan]

I recently joyfully received the Feats' "High Wire Act- Live in St. Louis" DVD for my birthday. I was thrilled! However, such a shock to find that the audio is a bit out of sync with the video- I'm a drummer, and to watch Richie's intricasies (sp?) while out of sync with audio is like a bad dream. Did anyone else experience this with that DVD? I don't know if this could be a fluke, and then maybe I can figure out how to get a good copy from someone involved in its production and/or sale, or is this just the way the DVD was recorded or printed, and its forever doomed to being out of sync?
Any responses would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
BB

hi bill,
not sure but i think it could be a hardware issue. have you tried the disc in other players and are other discs o.k. in this player? i have not noticed it on my copy. i returned several dvd players for this very issue till I found one that was acceptable. my DirecTV TiVO is frequently a full second or more "off" making concerts unviewable. btw richie's the greatest! i just love the faces he makes!

hey we're cutting the jamaica DVD right now and have had many allnighters trying to sync up all the tracks of video with audio. if you indeed have a sensitive eye, maybe we can send you a copy before we go to print and make sure everything is synced up. :-)

Hey Peter, I'd love to give it a look see for you. I also play drums and will check any sync problems. I can offer any other suggestions or comments from my years of experience with the Feat Fan organization. I thought your crew did a fine job of working in the background. I had forgotten that the cameraman sat in during our grassroots meeting - but he's in the pictures we took and that Hank Randall posted.

Thanks for taking this on.
