multicam project syncing issues

Post by FotherMucker99 »

Has anyone had an out of sync video after clicking on enable multicamera editing?
All my video streams were perfectly in sync before that.

Any help is much appreciated!

Only had that once, when I used some HD footage. My PC couldn't handle that. Luckily enough I reencoded all raw materials to simple SD mpeg-files, as I was making DVD, and all was fine after. But I don't know what's your case.
Sometimes, I also had troubles with rendered file (when all raw files were mpegs), some short parts were out of sync (maybe Vegas placed wrong time stamps or smth).

I have an older build of Sony Vegas 12.
I'll try the current one and see if this issue still persists.

I first had a 24bit audio recording (dithered to 16bit in audition) from a zoom or edirol recorder, not sure about the recorder since I didn't record it.

Changed that audio recording with my 16bit iriver recording and my videos stay in sync once I create the multicamera track.
I guess that the dithering to 16bit fucked with the zoom/edirol recording as it gets out of sync after a while- when compared to my iriver recording.

P.S: The upgrade to the current build (394) didn't solve the problem!

I mixed mpeg files and hd files too with Multicam mode too, no problem at all. (Sony vegas 10 64 bit, win7)

You could check if the 24->16 bit convert was good? (44,1?)

But I would check the iriver audio too! When I read iriver, my idea was that it's out of synch because of that. I recorded many audio with Edirol R-09HR it was always good, to my video, or others video, but when I got some iriver audio, it was out of synch. I had to cut it or change the speed of it. Did you check synch at more points?

It's strange because the multicam doesnt cut audio,
I always duplicate the video channels before making multicamera track, so I dont lost it, also you could compare if they are in the same position, didnt move accidently?
