  • Synced, linked, merged (WAV & ProRes) clips suddenly out of sync

    Posted by Christian Hart on July 31, 2010 at 7:02 pm

    I’ve had a bit of a search for this and I really am stumped.

    Please help!!!!

    I’ve been slowly syncing (both manually and with pluraleyes) my ProRes video (converted using the EOS plugin from 5D H.264) to my .WAV files.

    I’ve syncing on the timeline, then getting rid of the camera audio, and linking the remaining ProRes clip to a single mono WAV clip.

    I’ve then been dragging those clips from the timeline into a bin in the browser, thereby merging them into a master clip…

    All seems to have been fine but when i return to a scene bin to start cutting and some of the clips are out of sync.

    When i double click a clip in the browser and it opens in the viewer with one in and one out point i know it’ll be fine.

    When it opens with different video and audio in & outs, i know the sound will have slipped.

    Please tell me i am doing something really stupid – it’s driving me a little bit crazy…

    I’m on the latest version of FCP 7.02, OSX10.5.8

    ps. i forgot to say this is not a drift issue – the audio is completely out as if FCP has moved the video to the start of the audio.

    Also i forgot to say I have trashed my prefs, but no dice.

    Thanks so much – if anyone can help me it’s you guys!

    Did you ever find a solution for this? I’m having the same problem using Pluraleyes 3 and FCP 7.0.3.

    The merged clips in the Bin are completely out of sync.
