I don't know how to use the forum so I just wanted to tell you that your software does not have a desk top icon or a start file icon, thereby, since I installed it, I can't figure out how to open it.
Thanks.
Thanks.

It crashes and dies every time I tried to load a wave file, whether I'd loaded a video first or not. No error message, so no clue as to why. Uninstalled and deleted.

This program does work but it's piece of work trying to figure it out. If any program needs a decent guide written for it it's this one.
Heres how to do a simple re-sync:
Take the AVI file you want to re-sync.
Demux the video so it's video-only and demux the audio to a WAV file.
Load the video and audio in the respective options.
At the bottom click the "insert" button and set the position slider at the beginning of the timescale (0.00.00)
Move the "Stretcher" slider to the right if the audio finshes later than the video, to the left if earlier. Then hit the "play" button and move the timescale slider to a suitable point in the video that you want to lipsync etc, adjust the "Stretcher" slider as appropriate. When you're happy with the result hit the "Render" button which will save the new audio. Remux the video and the audio.
N.B the "Stretching" function is actually a a misnomer - it actually "shrinks" the audio rather than "stretch" the video. There are apparently a number of bugs - there is no error reporting so it simply refuses to work if it finds one, and it finds one often. In this case simply close the program and start again.

Ok, i have to agree that looking at this software initially, it does take a while to work out how to use. Although i haven't tried the % option, just the syncing by time offset.
What you do is in the left hand window you go to the point in the video when you are out of sync, then in the bottom box you can enter the time. Make sure you enter absolute values like 2.6 because when i deleted all the 0.0000 in there, and put 2 it wasn't even close to fixing my sync, so maybe it thought i was inputting 0.000002 etc.
Also for the video besides using the slider you can use the arrow keys, although it only goes by seconds, would of been great to have a finer adjusting choice.
This program has only rendered a working WAV for me once, and at that time i was still working out the controls, so it was wrong.
the other times it either renders the file, which i then cant find, it doesn't let you render the file at all, or it renders a file that just has static.
All in all, i would say a decent first attempt, but definitely needs the bugs ironed out of it, and a short instruction manual.
Can't complain though, since the author is putting in his time, and it is freeware.
cheers

I couldn't figure out how to get this to work.
There should be some sort of instruction included.

This software shows promise: it looks like it ought to work.
Unfortunately, in the meantime I found the user interface incomprehensible, and since it comes with no documentation whatever this turns out to be a fatal flaw. It badly needs some kind of documentation (even a readme text file would do - nobody is asking for "War and Peace!"), and until that happens I'm afraid it just isn't very useful.
One practical point: the video window is very small, especially on modern flat panel displays (eg. at 1280x1024 res). This makes it difficult to see an actors lips clearly, making it difficult to decide if you have perfect sync. The video window needs to be scaled up a bit.
