How do I correct sound problems that occur during the burning phase?

I have been working with the Movie Edit Pro 17 Plus on making my first movie. I have had no problems and the audio matches up on screen. However, the second I burn a disc to make the movie and try playing it in my dvd player, the audio is like a second behind. How is this happening and what do I do to fix it. I used a Panasonic HD video camera to film. It films in AVC i believe.

It is, I think "theoretically" impossible for problems of this nature to appear only at the burning stage.

So, I presume you checked the movie by playing the WHOLE thing, non-stop, and it played perfectly, no audio/video sync issues?  Notice, I did say the whole thing.  If, by any chance, you "sampled" the movie at certain random points there is just a possibility that any sync problems would not show, especially if they're caused by something on your computer but external to MEP.

What is the spec of your computer?  OS?  CPU?  HDD size and speed?  RAM?  Graphics card?  All this information is very useful to we fellow-users in helping you to diagnose and fix the problem.

Did you "check" the movie on the Preview facility of the Burn Screen?  IOW, the very last stage before exporting begins?

Just to reassure you of one thing: if your computer is fast enough all recent versions of MEP and VPX handle AVCHD pretty well.

I did check the video in the editing process, and then again in the burn process to see if the voice synced up and it did. I checked several sections of the video and watched them for several minutes and they all synced up. I did not watch the entire 90 minute video to see if it synced up though.

Specs information- 6gb of Ram, processor is intel core i7-2630qm cpu #2ghz. I am running windows 7, it is a new HP laptop, hard drive is 640gb. I think the graphics card is radeon hd 6770 gddr5. Hopefully that helps.

I did notice that when I started burning a dvd today that it asked me if vts_01_1.VOB  should the existing file be used for the film 2010 year in review. It asks if I should encode all, encode, use, use all or cancel. I chose encode all. I am not sure what this is for. Thanks for the help so far.
