Scofield is slower and lower-pitched than the PG audio, so I'm hoping an analog or analog-style ("speed up the tape") fix will go a long way toward making this job easier, but.... yow!

I can't recall someone attempting to re-sync an audio cassette recording of one of these movies with an official release.  The closest work you are attempting, done by someone else, would be the PAL NTSC, but those are known quantities, you are dealing with an on the fly shifting.  Get it as close as you can.

This is exactly what I have had to do for all of my sound syncs.  Capturing 16mm audio requires using an old analog projector, and so it never aligns with the frame captures.  In some cases I'm synching audio from a different source (such as for the PG, and for PSB).  And whenever there is a splice in the film you have to adjust for that. Vegas lets you cut tracks into segments and stretch them independently.  I'm sure my syncs aren't perfect.

Yes, it is very tedious work.  When the scene is something mechanical, like a laser blast, it doesn't matter so much if you're off by a frame or two.  But getting voices to line up with lip movements is really hard, and even being just one frame off cane make it look wrong.

One trick I've learned is to err on the side of audio being late.  In the real world, our brains have come to expect the light to arrive before the sound.  So if the audio is late, you might notice it.  But if the audio arrives early, it feels really wierd.  Doesn't work for close-ups.

For info, Belbucus did a GOUT sync of an in theatre 70mm recording of Star Wars but it was only in one channel with a 93 mix in the other.....

Hiya, you can get any of my work now from Boba Feta's.

I'm quite sensitive to audio advances and delays and I have to say I would prefer a 100ms audio advance to a 50ms audio delay. The former is more obvious, but the latter is more frustrating for some reason.

i've been doing some syncing lately too,

and delays are more noticeable to me to..

anyone find other links or places for this?

still looking for the Swedish version of the 16mm..

^ yeah, the question of the stupid Swedish name Tuggbak has been brought up many times, it came up in discussions on this page as well: http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/Stj-rnornas-Krig-Swedish-16mm-print/topic/11896/page/5/
