so another observation on this issue. I was playing an h264 movie last night and noticed the audio didn't seem quite right, of course its always fine on h264 movies, so I was like what the heck? this file had 2 sources, stereo and 5.1. I looked at the stats and it was just running up the missed part. I switched to 5.1 and then the missed part stopped. doesn't really make sense to me as it shoudln't be dependent on the audio going through I wouldn't think. but the 2 channel audio going through on the h264 did the same thing that I experience with xvid videos on 5.1, just missed after missed.

I have a Zotac motherboard with an nVidia 9400 graphic card, I use Windows 7 32 bit with the latest nVidia drivers and the 10/31 nightly build of XBMC.
I have tried anything, check and uncheck 'adjust refresh rate' and all the other options but the audio in movies (not in TV shows) delay grows during all the play, when I have 20 minutes played the delay is more than 2 second.
Any advice?

I'm just curious .. is there any known hardware configuration that was tested and does actually WORK ? Meaning that audio will be in sync for all the formats.

is this ever going to be fixed? I watched a movie today on the new beta build, it performs similarly to the audio engine build I was using. the audio is not quite right, slight ahead or behind. noticable enough to be annoying.
I switched and played it in mpc-hc, audio sync was dead on perfect. so why can't xbmc handle this?
I don't understand it for the life of me, this is an xvid file, I tried another file that is h264 and the audio is perfect.
EDIT: does AMD do this right? I"m about to chuck the gt430 as this has cost me at least 5 plus hours of straight troubleshooting time and its really frustrating.

Save your cash. The same problem exists with ATI and as reported previously it happens with all file types.

avi and derivative containers are junk, they need to die in a fire.
