I ripped about half of all my DVDs in DIVX format and every song that I need the 1st sencond of audio has this problem. Happens with VDJ 3.4 and 4.1 They will either have no audio on the 1st down beat or garbled sound for a few seconds. They all play fine in Winamp. I have ripped DVD's and converted some mpgs to DIVX on 3 different computers. I have installed Virtual DJ 3.4 and 4.1 on a second system, same problem. I ripped DVDs on Imtoo and Xilisoft DVD ripper and have the same problem. I have tried ripping/ converting videos with DIVX 5.2 and 6.4. I have also tried xvid. It will work fine with the Windows Media decoder, but the computer I DJ from has green bars when playing with that decoder. The problem arises when I use any audio COMPRESSION and the Virtual DJ internal decoder. I have tried mp2 compression, same problem. Also the wave plot shows the down beat "square" on the lower bar, but there is no plot above it. Its almost like its some sort of buffer issue, but I don't know. I'm thinking about going back to mpg1 :(. I dont see any other issues like this on the forum.
Here's my video specs:
704x480 1800kps.
29.97 f p/s
Mp3 audio 160 Tried 48khz and 44khz

yes, that's a bug that hopelly will be solved soon, use the improved version of divx called xvid mpg4 and you won't see that problem anymore,regards.

That worked. I had XVID, but I uninstalled all DIVX codecs. Now it defaults to XVID when using the Windows Media Player decoder. It worked but some videos would cause the CPU to go to 100% and some totaly locked up Virtual DJ. I went to the device manager deleted entries under Video Codecs in the device manager for any left over DIVX codes, it works great now. I also reapplied the Fraunhofer MP3 Codec. I now have it set to Windows Media Player decoder in Virtual DJ, no more video garbage and green lines, sitting at 20-40% cpu when playing a single video. Im happy, hope it works tonight.

maybe you are lack of memory and the files are too big for that reason it freezes you can reduce the space in settings, good luck :)

I tried it Saturday night. The CPU hit 100% again on some videos with Xvid installed and Windows Media Decoder. Had to change back to internal encoder. The videos got real choppy. The strange thing is it doesnt do it will all videos, though they were all ripped at the same time. Do I need to convert the videos from Divx to Xvid? I have 1gig of ram, my task manager shows ~500 megs of ram in use. Also for Xvid, when I ripped them I havent figured out how to turn up the compression. On Divx, I just set "insane compression" and it looks great at 1800kps. Im trying to stay around 50-60 megs a video. In Xvid, Im not sure what Im doing, but the settings I try the file size will go from 50megs to 200megs and it still looks blocky.

Try using the No1 dvd ripper and set xvid quality in 5 depending of the lenght of the video you'll get the size, e.g. a video of 3-4 min is about 50-60 mb.

I ripped aboit 10 DVDS of videos in Xvid, set quality to #6 at 1800kbps, it looks great, no lockups, no green bars. My CPU runs 30-50% when playing. I will need to re-rip the remaining DVD's. I tried a FOURCC changer set from DVIX to XVID, it worked, but 2 of the videos totally locked up the system. I'm just going to finsih up the last 20 DVD's.

I'm really getting tired of this problem with VirtualDJ... is there any chance that the next release will remedy this? I showed some DJs virtualDJ for the first time, so that they could switch to it from their DVD players, and they were really pissed about this issue.

If you are ripping in xvid use lame_enc.dll for audio it gives you a better syncronicity.

Ever since I changed to XVID, its been fine. It would of been nice to know that before ripping all the DVD's. I would like to see that in the supported file types on the website. Example: MPG, AVI(XVID recommend), etc..
