Despite of the lost frame, the playback seems to be in sync. On the other side, I havent heard any jumps in sound yet. This could only be possible when the timing of audio and video would be different and the software would try to keep video and audio in sync by dropping sometimes a single video frames. On the other side, if the same recording works when playing back video with the MP2 track, it looks like a buffering or packaging issue, as if in this case the DD packages would not fit into a certain time scale.
