August 29, 2011 at 2:24 am in reply to: Audio sync drift problem with HVX200 P2 capture

Just tried exporting the video as 29.97 in mpeg streamclip… no luck.

I found another thread on here that described my problem perfectly just like the OP. https://forums.creativecow.net/readpost/193/883011

I’m guessing the settings on my camera were a bit screwy. Seems like the video plays at 24fps while the audio is at 30fps. The audio can’t catch up with the video which is why it keeps going out of sync even when I line it up manually. Not sure why it plays back fine on the camera but once imported it’s off sync.

It’s not perfect, but the work around I’m using now is leaving the audio alone (in a 29.97 timeline) and slowing the video down to 90%. It doesn’t always look perfect but it’s the only option I have (I think). Covering up a lot of the interview with b-roll is helping too.

Never shooting at 30P again. I’ve shot in 30PN before and it worked fine so that’s what I’m sticking with from now on.

Thanks for the response!

Hello,

I know this post is about a year old but the original issue was never solved and I’m having the same problem. Footage was shot on an HVX at 30p and after everything was captured off the P2 card the audio is out of sync. If I play the clips back on the camera, the audio is in sync and perfectly normal. Trying to play the captured clips in QT and FC shows the audio is off.

I have a few interviews and all of them are out of sync. It seems like the audio drifts further out of sync as the clip progresses. I try to line up the audio (about 20 frames) and it appears to be in sync for short while, but as the clip keeps playing it goes out of sync again.

Does anybody know what the problem could be? Thank you in advance.

You have to use a program like Cinema Tools (which comes with Final Cut Studio).

– Right click and open the clip using Cinema Tools
– Bottom right hand part of the screen in Cinema Tools, there’s a button that says “Conform.” Click it and choose 24fps or 30fps and then you’re done.

The clips automatically change after you click the conform button, even in final cut.

seems to be working. thanks a lot Shane, appreciate the help! I’ve exported a test to his old FCP right now and it works! hopefully it will continue to works when he exports and tries to come back into my 6.0

Oh okay, I was confused but you reminded me what I did previously. I had final cut pro 6.0.1 and I had to upgrade to .5 so I was able to download the upgrade.

I was confused as to why my friend couldn’t do the same. Thanks for the info.

If I export an XML file will it take a very long time? Like a quicktime export or will it be relatively quick?

well I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong then because when I try to render the clip it estimates the time at over an hour.
How would you do it?
