Corbin… THANK YOU!
You described my issue almost exactly with some additional quirks.
Anytime I play a sequence with either the spacebar or the player controls at the bottom of the canvas window, I get a delay in the audio that varies from very minor to sometimes almost a full second.
If I hit stop, wait one second, and then hit play again, the delay stays constant.
However, if I click anywhere else in the timeline WHILE THE SEQUENCE IS PLAYING, the lag either reduces dramatically or goes away completely. If it’s still not quite right then one more click somewhere else in the time line will usually get everything to match up… Until, of course, the next time I stop the playback.
I was experimenting and nested the composition once with NO AUDIO MIX DOWN and again WITH AUDIO MIX DOWN.
The delay issued goes away completely in both nested sequences, regardless of mix down or no mix down. The audio starts right in with the video.
But.. I can’t independently edit the various clips one it’s nested without going back to the original sequence.
That’s very helpful for playback but sucks for editing.
For now I have to drag the TLI down the original sequence and scrub the audio in order to match edit points to the music/voice track.
I am quite disappointed no one has responded to your question. I will continue to search the forum to see if this has been answered elsewhere.
Meanwhile, if you have figured out the problem since your original post would you please reply with what you’ve learned…
Thanks again,
Cary
