Are you sure of this Err0r?...
10-12 FPS is really worse... 20 is not good but acceptable... actual players all deals with 30 FPS.

Concerning lag or out-of-sync, recently testing my Cowon D2, which indeed is excellent, I learned that there is 2 kind of synchronization of video with sound:
1. It's just by values. Values are assigned and both channels (video / audio) runs at this stated value. In this method if the player is enough powerful sound will go in-synch. This method is used by almost all converters and decoders.
2. By timestamps. both video are timestamps marked, then there is no chance of get out-of-synch, the problem here is that converter or encoder put this timestamps, and player (decoder) reads them. Cowon D2 uses this instead of method 1.

I use many converters (Xilisoft, Winavi, JetAudio) none of them do this trick and this D2 was not able to run in-synch until if find a front-end of Mencoder which casually that do the trick, viDrop, all my videos run in-sync since then.

Give it a try.
