External monitor looks in-sync but not FCP
Posted by Kevin Allar on October 20, 2009 at 8:00 pmI’m shooting at 24 fps, P2 / 720p, and the footage looks out of sync on my timeline but OK on my exterior monitor. What gives?

November 4, 2009 at 8:28 pmAre you monitoring sound coming from a deck or straight from your computer?
There will be a very slight (but noticable) delay from sound that comes from an external source (like a DV deck connected via firewire)
or similar setup.Just an idea…
Export to quicktime and double check the sync…its probably okay if this is your issue…
