  • Audio sync visually ok but playback is delayed

    Posted by Sachin Desai on October 28, 2010 at 8:20 am

    Hello everyone!

    I’ve footage of JVC 700 MOVs shot in 24p.

    My timeline setting was done auto meaning when i imported fottage and droped a clip to timeline it asked to match the timeline setting to clip i clicked ok.

    I edited the footage and send it for dubbing with one beep sound in begining and one beed in end.

    the dubbed audio is in wave format when I put the audio in timeline visually the waveforms seems ok but sound comes late, about 10-12 frames.

    i don’t have any audio device connected to my MAC i’m taking out the default line out to my mixer for this project.

    if I keep it visually arranged and tried to export just to check. the exorted mov is in sync.

    what could be the problem??

    Output a quicktime and look at it. It could be that your video isn’t keeping up with audio playback during the edit. It’s happened to me and when I output, everything was ok

    There are a lot of post on the cow about FCP having issues with wave files. export your file from beginning to end as an Aiff and give that a try
