Hi Steven,
The manual says I’m recording in AVCHD 1080/50i Mpeg2-PS.
I’ll try downloading it in the NTSC format next time. I am using PAL at the moment, as I’m in Australia. I assume that I can change from NTSC to PAL when I’ve got the files into Vegas.
Thanks for your time.

Try using Windows Classic drivers in your Options/Prefs/audio dialog.

Thanks Douglas for your reply.
I can’t seem to find any reference to Windows Classic drivers in the Options/Prefs/Audio dialog. Am I looking in the right place?
Regards,
Chris

Are you importing all the footage as 1 large file? Or just 1 clip at a time?

Are you having the capture software splitting the video files into clips?

Are you experiencing any audio to video sync problems?

Have you tried any other software NLE? Premiere (Adobe) has a trial version as well as Vegas Pro.

Hi Steven,
I originally imported the footage from Adobe Premiere Elements, (add media) which imported everything off my camera at once. I didn’t get the chance to choose what to import. It all ended up as a bunch of smaller clips of the 2 long scenes that I shot. Maybe I should have imported it using the Sony PMB, but I originally intended using Elements for the editing. When I realised it didn’t have as many good features as the Vegas Movie Studio Platinum 9, I put the clips in there to edit.
I haven’t intentionally had the files split into clips, in fact it has been a real headache having all these clips that are about 2 Gig.
I have no synch problems and have tried turning off the snap and edging the beginning of the following clip onto the end of the previous clip to cover the little sound gap but it doesn’t really work.
Is Vegas Pro the same as Movie Studio Platinum? I’d be happy to get another version if it fixes my problem.
Thanks again for your help.
Chris

Under Options turn off “Quickfade Audio Edits”.

Thanks Steven, for your very quick reply. I had already turned off quickfade audio edits, but the problem is still there. When I zoom in to the highest magnification, the video track is complete but there is one little section where there is a flat line in the audio just before the end of the clip. Many apologies for asking what is probably a very obvious question, but I am totally new to this and not as young as I used to be. 🙂
