Forgot to mention:

We also had that message coming up when reconnecting video after moving it between 24 and 23.98 timelines.
There the problem was obvious: a missing frame at the end of each clip.
But with the audio, FCP actually interpreted the media file differently, reading a different part of the file than before!

So check all the clips for which you had this message to make sure they’re still in sync.

Even though all our machines are working in 23.98 now, we are still experiencing this problems when sending projects back and forth (our production takes place in different studios). Some sound files (but not all of them) reconnect with this problem, which makes it almost impossible to transfer the exact sound edit.

If anyone has more information about this “Media Start and End” alert, please let us know. I saw other people having this problem in other forums, but no solution for the moment.

Thanks

Hi Aaron.

I have a similar problem, but only with the Audio, not the video.

It happens when we send projects to a different studio, using the same version (5.4.1), or when we receive projects from them.
Some of the sounds connect fine, others get the “Media start and end” message that pulls them out of sync.

I’ve noticed we got those messages when we tried to link to files in a different frame rate (23.98 instead of 24 and vice versa), or even audio clips that were originally edited in a timeline with different frame rate.

But now all our timelines are the same (23.98), and we’re still getting that for some of the audio files.

If anyone makes progress on this question please let us know.

Thanks
