Surfing with the Alien - Video Lag

Hi, I'm working my way through the surfing with the alien volume two tutorials. I've reached part 11 and have discovered a video lag that gets worse the further into the video I go. I only noticed it about half way through the tut but it has now gotten to the point where it's eleven seconds out (for example: the tutor says 'so lets rearrange the graph' and the video shows this happening eleven seconds later when he's gone onto a different part.)

If this could be looked into and fixed I'd be very grateful.

Thanks, the Yeti.

Could you let me know when this has been fixed so that I can download it again. It's too hard following along at the moment.

Thanks, the Yeti.

Hi again, The same problem has occurred in the Ferrari tutorial part 3. At around 17:45 a phone rings in the background and then the audio repeats itself and is sixteen seconds behind the video. I'd appreciate if this could be adjusted to line up.

Thanks, the Yeti.

Hey Jay. I just checked part_11_fin.mp4 and SP350.part3_bumper.avi, and they are out of sync by a few seconds. I looked at them in Quicktime, VLC, and mplayer.

Imagination is more important than knowledge.

Hi both, Thanks for looking into this problem for me. This problem also occurs in the Ferrari tutorial part 16. It's only about 5 minutes in and already the audio is about 20 seconds behind the video.

Cheers, the Yeti.
