Video Wave -- shifting music tracks


ILUVAWNINGS

Question

I'm creating a video project in Videowave that includes use of all the audio tracks -- Sound Effects, Narration, and Music.

 

When viewing the project in the preview window, it looks fine. However, when I output as a DV AVI file, to my computer hard drive and play back, two of the pieces of music are no longer where I placed them. They come in about 30 seconds to 1 minute late.

 

I went back to the file and viewed again in Preview mode, and it looks fine.

 

Having experienced weird things like this before, I first did the obligatory ...

 

* de-fragged the hard drive

* checked for new video card drivers -- found them, and installed

* rebooted the computer

 

I tried the output again, but had the same problem.

 

I even deleted the problematic two pieces of music and tried inserting two alternate pieces. I did the output again and still had the same problem. What else should I do?

 

 

Dell Dimension 4600i

Pentium 4 2.67 ghz

512 MB memory

NVIDIA GeForce 5200 graphics

Clear the proxy files by putting the project in Video Wave and then going to the top menu. Select tools,options and clear the files. While you are there set the rendering to software and try again.

 

I expect that you checked your hard drive for malware and have defragged it recently (don't listen if your computer says you don't have to). Make sure you have nothing else running while you are doing any video work including your antivirus.
