One other question I would kie to know the answer to is , if I rip a dvd that is out of sync is it mplayer that gets out of sync or is the actual recording out of sync I would like to know as I am just about to buy a divx player to connect to the tv , and wondered what it would make of a divx that is out of sync ?? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- > Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? > Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com >
