    Hi everyone,

    once again I’m having this issue.

    I render to Sony AVC 720P. I can view the video perfectly, however, on the client’s PC, the video/audio are out of sync.

    This has happened with other clients as well.

    any ideas?

    Ok…Here is what i sometimes try…Simply render out
    in the Quicktime Photo-jpeg format. Then drop back that
    format unto the timeline and then final render out as
    Sony AVC.
    If you want it easier, you can install and use
    this free plugin to help, Video4YouTube.

    Hmmm interesting. Thanks Steve.

    I’m trying to work efficiently and would rather not render twice if at all possible.

    just had another user on a MAC view it perfectly on quicktime. so strange.

    Have you experienced this before?

    Are your client’s computers so underpowered that they can’t handle the file?

    It is a possibility… would they experience out of sync issues?

    “It is a possibility… would they experience out of sync issues?”

    Anything’s possible. It’s been so long since I’ve used an underpowered computer that I honestly have no idea.

    In addition to Steve’s idea, the only other suggestions I can make is to either lower your bitrate on the 720P version (if the quality hit is acceptable) or offer them a lower res version (Internet 640P).

    I can certainly try this Mike.

    Which bitrate would you suggest I try with to begin?

    Gilles, the preset you’re using has a bitrate of 8,000,000
    Customize it by dropping it down 1,000,000 at a time until it gets to a point where you don’t like the final quality and use the next one up from there.
    Hopefully a lower bitrate version will play on your client’s PC.

    Thanks Mike,

    I’ll give that a whirl,

    Good luck with it Gilles – and remember to stop cursing clients 🙂

    Ha ha! Thanks Mike… I never bite the hand that feeds me … my clients are gold.
