Possible reasons why the audio/video on a divx movie is out of sync on friend's computer?

[FrogDog]

The movie is perfect on my computer, yet the audio is about 30 seconds out of sync on my friend's computer. Right from beginning it's out of sync, too. I did the encoding on my computer. We're both using the same player to play it, he's on win98 and I'm on 2000. I have no clue what's causing it.

Could be because the rip he's watching was originally ripped in DivX3 and he's trying to watch it through DivX4.

4.11 sucks at playing 3.x rips

checkto see if post processing is turned up. that sometimes throw audio out of sync with video. your friend may have a computer thats too slow.

Yeah if he has a slower computer, definitely turn down the postprocessing. I'm not sure why it would be out of sync from the very beginning though.
