Doesn't ffmpeg2theora just ignore the delay between video and audio? In
that case, it would be noticeable only for high values (a delay of 80ms
is quite hard to detect by an human).

In many dvd I think the delay is 80ms (I used to have this value in a
old windows software few years ago, dvddecrypter, I don't know how to
get this value on gnu/linux).

I don't have "y4oi" package on my distribution (ubuntu), what does this
tool do?

Thank you for your time, I appreciate.
