I've had Steve Unkles of http://www.MakeHistory.tv do such work for me several times over a decade or two--excellent value.

That sort of thing is baked into my workflow since the A/V offset can be shifted without re-encoding either stream.

Maybe an idea - I recently found I had to use a tool so I could record 

TV shows and then skip commercials - something I got very used to with 

years of using Tivo.



Anyway, to the point, I found recording did have shifts in video vs 

audio (haven't found why yet).

What I did find you might find useful is that the OBS Sudio has a 

delay/shift function on the audio track.

I found 3-5 ms was all that was needed - more details here:

I have converted many VHS tape without any issues, so I would think it 

depends on the equipment used.  I have a Zenith xbr716 and VC500 video 

capture if that tells you anything.



Good luck - Rich
