Audio for playback
I’ve no idea why this has started happening. I’m editing a project and for some reason every time I change anything on the time line I have to re-render the Audio “For Playback.”
This takes about two seconds each time but why does it do this and why isn’t it rendered automatically for playback?

What’s your audio sample rate? Where did the audio come from – what kind of camera and what codec was shot?

Hi,
I’m using a PMW EX1. Never had this problem before. Except I’ve upgraded to Snowleopard in between, which has made my machine much faster so I can’t see that as the reason for this.
I’ve been using the nesting function a lot on this edit as I’ve tested various edits, which has caused plenty of crashes. So perhaps that is a culprit. However, in theory that shouldn’t cause problems with the bottom level.
Previously I’ve been able to use many different sound tracks on the time line without having to render all the time to play back the audio. Can’t I just set it to render for playback automatically? It seems such a pointless thing to have to do.
48khz, XDCam 1080 25p setting for transfer.

As I haven’t upgraded to SL, I can’t comment on whether that’d be a factor. Most folks don’t seem to be having problems with it as long as they did a clean install. I know the EX1 records audio properly. Do you have any music or SFX tracks in your timeline? Are they 48kHz? Also, with a lot of tracks there does come a point where you need to render even if all the audio is 48kHz 16 or 24 bit.
