Project X which is written in Java and works fine in linux can
a) resync audio and video properly. It adds and drops audio frames
when demuxing to keep the sync. In a typical recording it does
this at most a couple of times when errors occurr.
b) deal with damaged MPEG (common from DVB source)
c) edit to GOP precision (about 0.5s)

I use Project X a lot, and its the only tool I've found on linux which
works 100% of the time.
Its only disadvantage is that it is a bit slow. However it does have
keyboard bindings (see the doom9 doc for details).
You might consider using projectx without editing (which is the slow
bits) to convert / fix your video *then* use avidemux to edit it.
Thats an experiment I keep meaning to try.
