This is the most bizarre problem I have ever encountered:
Although I have changed nothing at all, most of my projects are running in slow-motion (exactly 50% speed) and there is absolutely nothing I can do about it. Even when I capture footage from my Sony HD-FX1 camera (looking normal) and I play this footage on the monitor or on the time line, there is no sound and it runs in slow-motion. When I play the footage with Windows MediaPlayer, it runs at normal speed and with sound! It gets weirder still: there appear to be some projects that still work normally. When I compare all the settings of these projects to the setting of those projects that refuse to run at normal speed, they are IDENTICAL (HD1080i, Canopus HQ codec, etc). When I open a project that works fine and I capture new footage from my camera into this project, it looks fine too ! So basically, all my hardware is working fine, but there sure is something really fishy going on.
I tried an uninstall of Edius 4.54, erased the C:\Program files\Canopus\Edius folder and even cleaned the registry. Then I reinstalled 4.54: all my presets and projects were still there and the problem was still there too. Clearly, these presets and settings are stored elsewhere (somebody knows where ??). I tried 4.6 to no avail: same behaviour.
Browsing through the Forum, apparantly no one has this problem and I admit that I have never seen anything this weird in the more than 10 years I use Canopus products.
My machine runs just fine: Asus P5K-WS mobo (intel P35 chipset), 3.2 GHz Intel Core2Duo, 4 Gb DDR800 RAM, Intel RAID controller, Asus EN8500 GT Silent graphics card. Windows XP SP2.
All help will be greatly appreciated, 'cause I don't know what to do anymore save "format C" and re-install everything and I'd hate to do that.
