Abstract

A system includes a hardware processor and a memory storing a video/audio (V/A) synchronizer including video and audio encoders. The hardware processor executes the V/A synchronizer to receive raw video and audio extracted from media content, partition the raw video into video frame patches, partition the raw audio into audio samples, pre-process the video frame patches and the audio samples for encoding. The hardware processor further executes the V/A synchronizer to encode, using the video encoder, the pre-processed video frame patches to provide pre-processed and encoded video frame patches used to provide a latent representation of the raw video, encode, using the audio encoder, the pre-processed audio samples to provide pre-processed and encoded audio samples used to provide a latent representation of the raw audio, and synchronize, using the latent representations of the raw video and the raw audio, the raw audio with the raw video.
