the version of xine-lib in R5E50 has a bug in it that was introduced in version 1.1.2. The audio and video are out of sync in NTSC DVDs. This problem is fixed in xine-lib version 1.1.4.
All these commands are meant to be run as root.
First download the source:
Code: wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/xine/xine-lib-1.1.4.tar.bz2
Then unpack the source: Code: tar -xvjf xine-lib-1.1.4.tar.bz2
cd into the directory and run configure: Code: cd xine-lib-1.1.4/ ./configure
add /usr/local/lib to the file /etc/ld.so.conf so that the new file looks like this: Code: /usr/X11R6/lib /usr/local/lib
run make install and ldconfig(still in the xine-lib-1.1.4/ directory): Code: make install ldconfig
After doing this, the audio and video were in sync for me when watching NTSC DVDs.

MrFahrenheit thank you very much for posting this info. I just followed your instructions (more or less) and it seems to have fixed my problems with NTSC material. I was watching .vob's and they were out of sync. After your fix, they are back in sync! The only steps I took that differ from yours was the following: Code: cd xine-lib-1.1.4/ ./configure --prefix=/usr and I then added Code: /usr/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf
Adding the --prefix=/usr kept my install consistent with the original 1.2 version and the /usr/lib was added due to the path change that --prefix=/usr envokes from configure (although I don't know if I needed to). Thanks again!

This is awesome, thanks for sharing!
It also appears to have fixed another problem I was having with Xine, and I wanted to add it here so if anyone searches with the problem they will see this:
This fixed my problem where on R5E50 with updated Nvidia 9xxx drivers, Xine playback was slow and was giving this error:
No accelerated IMDCT transform found

Excellent! I had spent days trying to resolve this issue and never did. I ended up temporarily moving to a different distribution due to Xorg issues that I couldn't get resolved which also corrected the audio sync issue but it's nice to know that I wasn't the only one having this issue and that there is a fix. Great find and thanks for posting!
In other news: I'm not crazy - there really was a bug.

If the update has made it into the repos... Code: apt-get update && apt-get install libxine should work. Thanks for pointing this out, I'll ensure it is updated for the next release.

It seems to be "libxine1" (I think?), and the repository seems to have "1.1.2+dfsg-2"

like jimmyfergus said, I had to "apt-get libxine1".
That noticeably improved the audio sync, but it appears there's still a slight delay in audio. Has anyone else seen this, or is it unique to my setup (spdif passthrough to my receiver)? I tired playing around with the "digital audio delay setting in xine, but even with it set to -100 I didn't notice any difference. Has anyone had success with it?

... though it wasn't v 1.1.4, so perhaps the fix isn't in there - I haven't looked into it to find out. It might be worth doing the build listed above.

Just noticed a new xine-lib version was released a few days ago...
Code: wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/xine/xine-lib-1.1.5.tar.bz2
