Delay/Freeze begining of timeline
Ok so I’ve had this problem on this one project. When you click the play button the music plays fine but the video is ahead about 12 frames. The first part of the clip is basically skipped over, then the video freezes, syncs up with the audio and there are no more problems for the rest of the timeline. This is a single chapter timeline, its for a demo reel. I’ve tried different .avi clips and the same thing happens. This is even the second project file I’ve started and both do this. The .avi file is in microsoft DV compression (29.97) and I am transcoding to NTSC DV 4×3 High Quality 8mb CBR 1 pass. I have gone ahead and burned to DVD and it infact has the problem on disc as well as the preview on the computer. I know the original .avi file is perfectly fine and as I said I’ve used multiple files with the same result. I did a preview disk for a client last week and had absolutly no problems. Does anyone know whats up? I really need to get this demo done for a meeting with a potentially big/multi project client and cant bring something like this to the table.
Thanks,

Do the problematic AVI clips start with a still (or video without motion)? If so, I would suggest to export again from Premiere with the “Optimize Stills” setting disabled.

I will give that a try. I think thats how it is exported but i’m not sure. As I said before, the .avi doesnt have any problems with its playback, just a problem in encore.
