Swaine,

I had a similar problem with the scripts I was playing
with.  Could play with Xine, but not on a stand alone
DVD player.  Bump the audio bitrate up to 384 and it
started working.

I tried the script last night.  The burned disc failed
when I tried to 
use it in my dvd player.   But when played with xine
or mplayer, there 
was no sync problem.   It was actually perfect.

Thanks for the script.   I just have to figure out why
the burned disc 
fails.

Dwaine.
