So I had recorded the TV Show/Mini-series Political Animals in HD when it was on. Unfortunately, the show was only released on DVD and never on blu. I recorded the on-demand version when it was still available because it did not have the station bug in the corner. The only problem is that the on-demand version had 2.0 audio (192kbps) as opposed to the original 5.1 mix. Although there is an HD iTunes version, mine has significantly less compression and I'd really rather not go down that route.
So I purchased the DVD version to get the 448kbps 5.1 track. To my surprise, of the 6 episodes, only 1, 5 and 6 synced up. When I lined up the other 3 episodes, they immediately became wildly out of sync, as if the on-demand version I had recorded was sped-up. My immediate thought was that they possibly used a PAL master or something for the on-demand but that just makes no sense. I checked the iTunes download as well as the original TV broadcasts (from torrent) and none of them synced up either.
Has anyone ever encountered something like this and did you ever find a solution? Am I just going to have to manually go through and line it up? Any suggestions?
