hy!

the movie length is : 6737 sec
the audio length is : 6757 sec

so i tried according to the mkvmerge documentation:

mkvmerge -o goodsync.mkv --sync 2:0,161540/162020 outofsync.mkv

where the movie has 161540 frames and the desync is a 20 sec drift apart!
so if the movie is 23.976 fps the 20 sec means 480 frames therefore
161540+480=162020. but if i run this command i get these lines back:

Matroska demultiplexer (Arlington Road.mkv): using video output module for
track ID 1.
Matroska demultiplexer (Arlington Road.mkv): using the MP3 output module
for track ID 2.
Opened 'goodsync.mkv' for writing.

and after about 10 sec i get this line:
Killed

and the result goodsync.mkv is 96K which is of course wrong!

(outofsync == Arlington Road)

any idea?

ps.: 1st track of mkv is the video, 2nd track is the audio and has no
other track.
