Hi Carissa. Tell us the pixel resolution of your sequence timeline and the pixel resolution of your images. Have you resized any/all of them for the timeline?

Hi Anthony. We need more information about your system, including the video card you have. In addition what are formats/codecs of the footage in question?

Never use the QT player app anyway. I use VLC for almost everything

One of the things I was looking at was to see if it was the dreaded miniDV LP mode, which would show a 32kHz audio sampling rate. But your media info does not show that; it shows 48kHz, which is as it should be.
Did you digitize from the original material? or did someone give you the files?
There were three common forms of DV – miniDV (consumer/prosumer), DVCPro (Panasonic), and DVCam (Sony).
DVCPro had a slightly wider video track width. Most DVCPro decks could play back DVCam tapes, sometimes as simply as flipping a switch before inserting the tape. But DVCam decks could not play a DVCPro tape.
Is it possible someone tried to transfer DVCPro tape using a DVCam deck? I am just coming up with a few wild theories.

Something funky about the codec on the audio clip perhaps?
Try converting it using Audition to another format/codec and see if using that version eliminates the issue. That’s what I would try, anyway.

Hello Emma – what file format/codec footage were you working with?

Don’t know if this is your issue. But Premiere pro generates two files with every audio clip, for the file peaks and the waveform display. On longer clips it can take a while to generate these files, and the audio will be muted on the unprocessed portion of the file.
Once Premiere Pro has finished that task, you should have audio head-to-tail.

Oops – also, what codec/wrapper and resolution on the footage?

You list two SSD’s. One is OS and apps, and the other is media?

I can tell you I have been able to download and use content in Premiere Pro on our PC-based systems with the ProRes codec. Just can’t output to ProRes without additional software.
