A Digital Signal Processing System for Automatic Dialogue Post-Synchronization

P. J. Bloom, G. D. Marshall

A digital signal processing system, Wordfit, has been developed to eliminate the time-consuming and repetitive nature of film and video dialogue post-synchronization. The system computes the relative timing differences between the studio dialogue and the original guide-track recording, and removes these differences by automatically editing a digitally stored version of the studio dialogue. The general operation of the system and the editing process are described.
