Editing zoom recordings in Edius issue

[Hutch TV]

I am finding that some of the Zoom recordings that I am editing creep out of sync. These are clips that are either 32.000 kHz or 44.1000 kHz

If playing the clip outside of Edius then both vision and audio are in sync however out of sync within Edius. All clips that I recorded on my cameras are in sync.

Note: Files sent to me that are 48.000 are fine. I guess I could just reclip in Handbrake at 48.000 and slip back in the timeline?

try and convert the zoom clip in the bin to HQ or HQX and see if it works

your project setting should be stereo, 2 channel, not 4 channel

I just tried it but its still out of sync. In handbrake I can't seem to see paramaters for where I could change from 44 to 48. I think I'm stuck with manually sliding the audio back every few minutes. These are 30 minute presentations so its pretty annoying.

is it fair to say that 48 is the standard over 44? Its a problem when mixing the two types in a post edit.

what is your current EDIUS version? I think there is a known issue if the source has variable frame rate that the audio will drift which will be fixed soon
meanwhile, try handbrake and see if it stays in sync after conversion

another thing you can try is set project setting to 32k and then place the clip on timeline and print to file, HQ or HQX and see if it works then when placed in 48k project

48kHz is the standard when audio is used for video. It has been this way since the inception of digital video/NLE's. Sample rate converting the audio to 48kHz should fix the problem.

If you have any audio software such as a DAW, Wavelab, Audacity, SoX, etc., or even something like xmedia recode, you can sample rate convert the audio into proper wav files at 48kHz.
