    Posted by Jason Mckee on February 28, 2009 at 3:30 am

    My Multi clips (no matter what I do wont sync up). I have had a lot of experience with multiclips and have never encountered this problem. Everything is the same. The clips are the same frame rate, codec, frame size, they are using the same audio, they are in the same project, etc. But no matter what I do, as soon as I make a multiclip out of these two (already merged clips with audio) one of the cameras goes out of sync. I am at a loss here. I’ve gone back through many times just to make sure its not operator error and I assure you its not. Now its not the end of the world since its only 4 groups of clips that wont link up this way (out of thousands) but I would at least like to figure out whats going on here. Thanks in advance.

    Is it the same angle all the time or the same camera with the sync problem… might be something there to look into.

    > (already merged clips with audio)
    This probably is the problem.

    Try to make them a subclip first and then use “Inpoint” for multiclip creation.
    I personally (and there are many others with me) would not recommend to create multiclips or subclips using external audio.
