losing audio sync when watching videos

[hardyn]

I don't recall having the problem with edgy; with feisty, even after a few minutes, a played-back video seems to lose audio sync and can be out my as much as 1 second after about 30min.
the audio can be resynced by fast-forwarding or rewinding just a little; playback will continue to lose sync after that point again. there are no audio or video quality problems, just a minor but annoying loss in sync.

i do have a fairly high performance machine, so i do not think that is a problem:

Asus z71vp P-M notebook, 2.1ghz, 1gb ram, Nvidia 6600 w/ binary drivers, feisty fully updated. using ubuntu "movie player" and gstreamer with several restricted codecs.

Is this symptom still reproducible in 8.10 beta?

i will DL the live disk and give it a go this weekend.

gstreamer is not the right sourcepackage, removing.

Does this problem still occur with the latest Ubuntu release?

exactly the same problem here. I tried VLC, Totem, and mplayer with same results. with Totem there is also some minor audio glitches. I'm using Ubuntu 9.04
