I used to have the same problem myself. What I did to correct it was get a different codec (like Ace MegaCodecs Pack).. it was the divx codec that was not working properly that made the audio not sync up
My question is, do I need to upgrade my motherboard, or is there something I can do to tweak my OS or hardware to correct this??
Hardware:
EPIA-800 C3 http://www.shentech.com/viaepple180c.html
1G Kingston PC/133
Maxtor 40G 7200RPM
Panasonic CW-8123-C Slimline Slot Loading 24X CD-RW/DVD
Hiacom 204S GPS
Belkin Bluetooth
NetGear Wireless Dongle
Software:
Microsoft XP SP2
FrodoPlayer (Opening as XP Shell)
Destinator 3
The issue:
*When playing Xvid/Divx the video will play slower than the audio
*When playing DVD's the audio plays fine and the video will jump (through WMP)
*When playing DVD's using PowerDVD6 (which uses 1/3 the memory of WMP) the video plays better, but still jumps while the audio clips
*When running a CD emulator and DVD image on the hard drive the performance is a little better, but the above issues remain.
***** DMA if available on the IDE controllers has been enabled *****
***** Video Clips in Xvid/Divx will play fine as long as the file size is small *****

I'll try the new codecs and see if that helps me out any.
I'm starting to wonder if the processor/onboard video is enough to handle DVD playback. Any ideas out there??
