Activity Forums VEGAS Pro Audio is not synced with lips

  • Audio is not synced with lips

    What causes the audio to get out of sync with the lips? It is right when I play the editing part and when it is rendered. But when I put it to dvd, it gets out of sync. Anyone got an answer? How to fix it.

    Grace and Peace to you!

    Did you use a DVDA template to encode the video and the Dolby Pro AC3 to encode the audio separately?

    I’ve only seen this happen when you make a DVD with audio included in the MPEG file.

    No, where are the DVDA templates located?

    It’s in the “Render As” menu. Pick the DVDA template most appropriate for your project. If there is an “=” in front of a template, then it is a match for your project settings. If you project is over 70 minutes you will need to adjust the bitrate in the “Customize Template” menu. Also do a “render as” of the AC3 file using the Dolby Professional template and with the same base filename. Your workflow is likely different from mine because I design my menus in Photoshop, but I drag the Mpeg file into the DVDA “Project Overview” and because the AC3 file has the same name, it comes along for the ride. You will never see the AC3 file in the “Project Overview”, but it is there.

    If you want a DVD that has no menu and just plays when inserted into the player, delete the menu from “Project Overview” and make sure the media has the “first play” star on it.

    What frame rate did you use to film this footage? And did the audio come from the camcorder or an external device? I shot some footage not too long ago and used an external device to record audio. My footage was 24p, and for some reason the audio did not match the actors’ lips moving.
