Hi all,
I had a guy send me some video and audio and need to sync them. I realized that it was in PAL format and when I try to play it on my computer it plays very fast. In Adobe Premiere it does nothing and freezes. I would like to be able to view the PAL videos on my machine, and mix to burn DVD's. I perfer NTSC, but PAL is ok since my dvd player is hacked.
What to I need to get this done.
Thanks in advance

So you play it in windows media player (or some equivilent that isn't a video editor) and it plays fast? I suspect you've got more problems then just PAL in that case. What video format is it in?
If it came on DVD, does it play on your player? I've got tons of PAL stuff that I can play on an old region locked player, it just chops the top and bottom 25 or so lines of resolution.

I have tried it in Windows Media, and yes it is very fast....
It is in .mpg file format, which is what it was recorded in...
Is there a way to determine the clock speed??

is it blazingly fast, or just chipmunkish fast? (e.g. is it 25fps played at 29.970 or is it 25fps played at 50)
Second, whats the resolution? How about any other vital stats (bitrate, codec, resolution, audio sampling rate, etc).
Last, was it uploaded, or mailed on disc? Did it pass MD5 check?

It's really fast I can't tell. It just came on a cd as an .mpg file that came directlt from the hard drive of the video camera.
Attached is a file with all the info I can get from the file.

After looking at thye file a few times, I think is 25 fps trying to play at 30fps. It is fast but not ultra fast.

Can you demux it into individual video and audio (whether mp2, ac3, whatever), and does it still play fast then?
You mentioned opening it in Adobe, have you tried anything else?
Was this edited/rendered prior to sending it to you, or did it come directly out of a camera without any post work?
