Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for detecting and correcting synchronization errors in multimedia content comprising a video stream and a non-original audio stream. Techniques for directly detecting synchronization of video and audio streams may be inadequate to detect synchronize errors for non-original audio streams, particularly where such non-original audio streams contain audio not reflective of events within the video stream, such as speaking dialog in a different language than the speakers of the video stream. To overcome this problem, the present disclosure enables synchronization of a non-original audio stream to another audio stream, such as an original audio stream, that is synchronized to the video stream. By comparison of signatures, the non-original and other audio stream are aligned to determine an offset that can be used to synchronize the non-original audio stream to the video stream.
