Ron,
I’m having pretty much the exact same problem you were having in October. I’m bringing in 1080i 24p clips from a Panasonic HPX-300. When I look at the clip in QT on my machine the audio syncs fine. It’s only when I get them in FCP that I get the audio drift.
It sounds like Jeremy helped you with your problem which basically had to do with somehow converting your footage from 23.98 to 23.976. I’m thinking that would work for me to, but my question to you is;
How do you go about doing that? You talk about transcoding your footage but I’m not sure I follow what that’s all about. What program are you using?
Thanks,
Jeff
