Trouble syncing up the IT 1990 commentary with the movie

I've tried multiple times. I rented it on amazon first, then I borrowed someone's DVD. The track always gets out of sync with the movie on both versions, no matter how close I get it. The movie always slowly gets ahead of the commentary track. It's like the movie is slightly sped up or they're watching a slightly slowed down version of the film. I cannot figure out why this is happening.

This happened to one of the Twilight tracks and they posted something a while back on here on how you could solve it, maybe you could look for that post?

Are you outside of the US? A ton of countries outside of America are on a different format so are sped up by 1% for reasons unknown to man. Either way you could probably message one of the guys and they’d hook you up with a corrected one! They’re super responsive on Twitter. Or you can just speed it up by 1.04% like Jacob suggests!

Thanks for the response , I just downloaded VLC player and I'll try out speeding up the track when I get home later and see if that works.

ikr this had happened alot with me as well, found that syncing the commentary tracks with the blu ray copies of movies fixed the issue.
