Jake,
I enjoyed your film. Funny, well played, nicely done for 48 hour contest. For someone new to the camera, (I haven’t used it yet), looks like you have found a groove already. Nice control of depth of field, good choose of lens lengths. Nicely composed shots, usually good exposure… some times a bit over exposed, but maybe that was intentional. Sound was a problem though… sounds like a camera mic only.
All in all, it’s obvious that you have a good eye. For a first venture with the camera, pretty astounding really.

I’ve rendered the mixdown, and that didn’t help. Exported audio only self contained QT, then imported it with the same problems. Tried exporting to Sound Track Pro where all the audio played fine. So, exported AIFF’s of all 10 tracks, imported to FCP, put into timeline… same problems. Bough a new drive, copied all media and project to it. Initially, it worked as long at the video is un-rendered. As soon as video rendered (to same new drive)…same problem.
Opened other projects with media on other drives, and all of them played… including projects and media that were on the same drive as my problem project!! Go figure.

I’m running out of ideas to go around the problem. So, I’m re-installing FCP software with all upgrades to the same versions as yesterday.

Well, the problem is back with a vengeance. I did throw away the audio render files (twice now), initially, it seemed to clear up the problem, but it is still happening. Some audio plays slowly also and will go out of sync. I tried playing with no audio render files, and same thing. I’m in desperate need on this, must deliver the show today.
Thanks in advance

Dave, YOU DA MAN!! It works!!! Not sure how render files would get corrupted, but nothing surprises me anymore.
Thanks SO MUCH.
