I have created 8 DVD's using the latest version of Encore CC:
For some of the DVD's, the Audio is fine. For some others, there are sections of the dvd (about 30 seconds max.) where the audio slips slightly out of sync, then back in sync.
Any Ideas are greatly appreciated.

Please post a screenshot to your PR/AME export dialogue, including the summary sections.

No reason to have Bit Depth checked, and I wonder if the Optical Flow is messing up the sync, no reason for that to be enabled at all. Use DEFAULTS and don't check OPTIONS unless you specifically understand what the benefits/consequences are. I see this all too often, issues that should not be issues at all, caused because the user assumed that checking every option box will somehow improve things.
Thanks

I have a couple of suggestions that may help.
1 - Do not go from 4k progressive straight to DVD MPEG-2. Scale down to SD in the first instance (and for this you should have max quality checked as it is supposed to give better quality scaling) using the correct setting for the TV standard you require (NTSC or PAL).
Make sure your output is set to "Scale to fit" and not "Scale to fill" as the latter may stretch the output.
2 - Do not use Optical Flow - you are not frame rate converting (are you?) so there is no need (unless you are frame rate converting, which would explain an awful lot here)
So - output to an SD AVI or an SD Quicktime ProRes (if on a mac as this option is not available for PC) in the first instance & then import the result into Encore, making sure it is correctly set to DVD in the right TV standard.

Really?
How did they get around the licensing issue? This is great news - if it works!
I had better get this installed (I usually stay well clear of latest new releases until I see that nobody is having trouble with it, as I have to keep things always running so get nervous)
Thanks for this.
EDIT.
Now I am seriously baffled - my Premiere Pro CC installation is 12.something, and the CC app shows no update available.
See screenshots attached.
What is wrong here please?

I would try to log out from the CC app and then log in again. Or, log out from the CC app, restart the computer and then log in again. Or, log out and go to Download Adobe Creative Cloud app and install the latest version of the app.
I have done very limited testings of the ProRes export, but it has been flawless and fast all the times i have tried.

Doesn't work.
All I get is the message in CC that my PPro is up to date on version 12.1.2

If you are on Mac, do you have an updated operating system?
I'm on Win10 so I don't have a Mac link, but I think the latest PPro version requires a newer Mac operating system

Yes, 2019 requires win10.

You wrote earlier about don´t wanting to upgrade your OS and that´s probably the issue: Adobe Premiere Pro CC System Requirements
FYI, i have used and use Win 10 Pro since the advent of it and have had no problems with that the automatic updates render the system unusable or semi-unusable. So moving to Win 10 isn´t as dramatic and problematic as many say/write. I have used Win 10 since it was beta and i what i have had issues with is new versions of Adobe products during those years ruining a work day since i had to do trouble shooting why the export comes out bad, etc. All errors were bugs in the Adobe software, not in Win 10. With Win 10 i have had zero issues with the Win 10 upgrades. Very few restarts are needed with Win 10 compared to Win 7 and older.
Try it on a working machine for six months before you dismiss it without first hand experience.

It is nothing to do with no really wanting to change OS - there are 3 very good reasons:
1 - My hardware will not run on W10, and I cannot change the hardware as I need it for daily work.
2 - I feel I should not be forced into spending literally thousands of pounds - yet again - on a new rig just to run Premiere Pro when W10 for me is simply not a viable OS.
3 - My Pro Audio PC system builder company do not recommend Windows 10 - period.
I could go into details but nobody would care so there is little point wasting my and your time any further.
I just checked system requirements and known issues and I get the impression that all Adobe really care about is how well things work on bloody Mac.
