Ive had my family overseas upload a 500MB DivX 5 Variable-Frame Rate "family video".

Basically I want to convert it into something else, such as an mpeg so that I can eventually burn it to DVD using the following:

josiah@Stellar josiah $ cat Docs/Dvd_Creation
Pal:
transcode -i matrix.mpg -V -y mpeg -F d -Z 352x288 --export_fps 25 --export_asr 2 -E 48000 -b 224 -o matrix

Ntsc:
transcode -i matrix.mpg -V -y mpeg -F d -Z 352x240 --export_fps 29.97 --export_asr 2 -E 48000 -b 224 -o matrix

mplex -f 8 -o matrix_dvd.mpg matrix.m2v matrix.mpa

dvdauthor -o finalproduct endresult.mpg

dvdauthor -o finalproduct -T


This was taken from:
forums.gentoo.org

This however doesnt seem to work with the way my family have encoded this DivX.

Basically the Audio/Video are always out of sync, regardless of using mplayer to pipe it to transcode etc :-(
Ive tried Avidemux2 but it leaves the video INCREDIBLY jerky once outputted

I origionally got the file playing on the Family's PC - I opened it in WinAmp and it varies between 24fps and 30.5fps! They sent me this:
www.dimension.net.nz

This was a small >2MB file made encoding using Dr DivX in exactly the same way.


Any ideas?

Many thanks


Chill.
