  • Audio Unfixably Out of Sync (Critical)

    Posted by Kyle Kelly on July 11, 2011 at 9:44 pm

    Hello, I am having an unfixable problem. I made a video of me playing a game which has audio. I also had a recorded voice of me talking about the game. I took the video and audio of the game, as well as the second audio clip of me talking and added them all to into sony vegas. When I click on a specific part of the video, everything is perfectly in sync. But when I watch it from start to finish, the audio of me talking slowly drifts out of sync from the video. After about 5 minutes, my voice is about 30 seconds off! It is also out of sync when i render it. I have tried every possible solution in the universe and it’s still out of sync! Please excuse my language, but I am understandably frustrated. Extremely frustrated. I finished the video a week ago, but can’t upload it because Sony Vegas keeps intentionally putting the audio out of sync. I’ve been trying to fix it for a week, but really need help – Possibly psychological help if I have to deal with this any longer. My settings are below:

    Audio: 128 Kbps, 44,100 Hz, Stereo, AC3
    Video: 29.970 fps, 1280×720 Progressive, Xvid
    Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1.000

    I have run out of ideas on what to possibly do. I have tried rendering the audio in both 32,000 and 48,000 kb per second, using different codecs, changing the frame rate of the video, converting the audio file to different types, converting the video file to different types, rendering in different file types – Nothing has worked and I’m going to have an anxiety attack. Any solution will be appreciated, although with my pissy satan-like luck, no solution will ever work.

    Check the audio properties of your voice recording, it may have been recorded at 48,000khz. That would cause that kind of problem. If it is, convert it to 44.1khz, if that is the resolution of your audio from the video track. See if that fixes things.

    Sometimes I line both audio sources up where they are in sync at the beginning. I then cntrl click the end of one of the clips (usually the one that’s out of synce with the video) until the ends are in sync. If its a particularly long piece, I may do the same thing but in smaller chunks.

    The audio and video timeline are already equal from beginning to end.
    So, that won’t fix my problem. The timeline is fine,the sync is whats messed up.

    That won’t fix my problem. The timeline of the video and audio are completely equal beginning to end. It’s the sync itself that slowly drifts out during the video.

    Anyone? I really hope I could get back to making videos again. If I can’t fix this problem. I can’t make videos, since they require commentary.
