While creating my first HD edit, I noticed that the audio track would start off perfectly synced with the video and then progressively lose sync over time. I've come to know that this is referred to as "Audio Drifting." Blu-rays with seamless branching are divided into multiple .m2ts files and have overlapping audio frames to smooth out the transition to Maximum movie modes or re-inserted scenes. If the program joining the .m2ts files back together doesn't know to properly trim these overlapping sections of audio, you end up with an audio stream about a dozen frames or so longer than your video stream, with gaps in audio at every single m2ts merge point. Basically, the audio "drifts" out of sync.
I've come to learn that TSmuxer can not properly account for these overlapping audio frames (see Edit Update below), and I was hoping someone could recommend a guide to joining together .m2ts files of Blu-rays with seamless branching.
This is putting a hold on converting a nearly completed edit to HD, and I'd prefer not to use the Dolby Digital tracks from my DVD copies of these movies.
Any help here would be hot.
EDIT Update: When using TSmuxer, I had manually joined together the multiple .m2ts files from the stream folder instead of selecting a playlist (.mpls file). Is it just that the .mpls file would have told TSmuxer how to cut the overlappng audio frames? Re-ripping the Blu-rays to find out... :-o
