I have a video of an artiste singing in one language, and I have the same artiste singing the same song in English.
I have opened two video players at the same time, and can, with a bit of faster/slower clicking on the time line, get them in synch, so I have the artiste "miming" in language A but actually hearing English..... (the lip synch isn`t too bad.... despite the obvious word differences)
What I would like to do, is to re-record the video, with the english soundtrack....
Any advice, hints, simple instructions, software? would be appreciated, thanks

2) Digitally record the required soundtrack (Audacity is free, easy to use and versatile).
3) You need some video editing software. I use Pinnacle Studio, but it isn't free. You could try entering "video editing software freeware" into a search engine and see what you find.
Alternatively, ask a friend to do it.

I also have Any Video Converter/ Any DVD Converter

Avidemux 2.5
So, have the software..... just want some idea on how to get the two to synch at the start..... not halfway through! ! ! ..

I cannot see a way to "synch" the original movie to the "donor" soundtrack. (or vice versa)....

Open Avidemux
open the original movie, save as separate streams avi & mp3
open the English version, save audio
open the avi and the English audio and tell it to mux them
The above should work in M$ or Linux
Now I haven't done this but it is similar to what a wanted to do a while back removing one soundtrack and replacing it with another.

How can you maintain sync if the video and the two audio soundtracks are of slightly different lengths?
Is it possible to change the length of a soundtrack by squeezing it/expanding it, without it sounding horrible?

(In my case it's a recording where the video and sound are recorded simultaneously by separate programs).
Occasional dropped frames etc mean that there isn't proper sync.

Noddy`s Guide starts here ! ! ! ! >.......
using "AnyVideoConverter"..... http://www.any-video-converter.com/products/for_video_free/
Add Video - find file and "open" > go to "profile" (across the top toolbar) and enter (from dropdown menu) Customized MP4 Movie (*.mp4)
Below that
set your Video Options (especially FRAME SIZE)
below that....
set your Audio Options Disable Audio to YES
bottom left corner...... set your "output folder"
then go to top toolbar and click "Convert"....
this will give you the Video only.....
Now... add video(assuming you have a video with soundtrack you want to use). and this time the "Profile " needs to be set to MP3 Audio
Reset "Disable Audio" to NO
then click on "Convert"
this should give you the Audio track only...
now you need a new program to join them together......
this is so easy to use....!.... "VideoPad Video Editor"
http://www.nchsoftware.com/videopad/index.html
it is free for home use..... so just click on "Get it now"...
When it is installed, you just add the video and then drag it to the first "time line"..... THEN add the audio file, and drag it to the second time line.... do the necessary "settings" for your finished movie, and then click on the top "Save Movie"
Two or three minutes later, it is in your output folder ready to use.... !

The VideoPad software shows two or more timelines, where you Drag & Drop the video and sound files.... Avidemux hasn`t got that ..... leastways I couldn`t see it.!>!..
