Premiere CC, PIP Out of Sync on Export

I have this problem that's been driving me crazy the past few days. I have a basic sequence in my Premiere project that features some picture-in-picture. When viewing it in Premiere, the PIPs are perfectly synced how I want them with the main picture, however on export it is out of sync by a few seconds towards the end (the first few PIPs are perfect, though). I have tried multiple formats with the same result. Even creating a new sequence using that sequence (so that there is only one video and audio track and therefore should not logically be able to be out of sync) has failed. I even tried moving the PIPs that are towards the end earlier and later on the timeline coprresponding to how out of sync they are in the exported file, however that doesn't work either.
I have searched extensively and have not been able to find my problem. Are there any ideas?

UPDATE:
I tried re-editing the entire sequence from scratch in a new project and it still has this problem. It seems as though the picture-in-picture runs more quickly than the main picture while having weird lag spikes. I exported it at 240p and 15 frames per second and the video is perfect (besides looking awful). This seems like an annoying bug that is on Adobe's end having to do with encoding. I will try exporting as different file types and report back.

Music slightly out of sync when exporting in Premiere CS6, format problem?

Hi guys, i have a quick question.
I edited together a promo for a local band and everything is perfect in the sequence as far as being on point with the music at certain beats and such. However when I export it the music is slightly out of sync, which is bad when you edited everything specificly to the song. I am not using ANY audio from the footage but instead layed a music track over everything. I'm not sure what else to do, could it be a format problem? I am using h.264 (see below), but would AVI or anything else work better? any help is appreciated thank you!
I am exporting directly from inside Premiere CS6 using a custom H.264 preset. 24fps, VBR 2 pass encoding. Target 7MB, Max 11MB. (with render at maxium bit depth, and render at highest quaility selected.)
I put the audio settings to high, 320kbs AAC format.
I use a custom built PC with an i7-3770K, 32 GB RAM, and I exported to a 120GB SSD.
Any other info you need just ask.any types for uploading to vimeo so it doesn't get out of sync there? thank you in advance!
Also, any types for uploading to vimeo so it doesn't get out of sync there? thank you in advance!

Hi,
I dont think that you will really get a problem while exporting in any of the given formats. But i would really like to check if the audio layer is exactly same as of the video. for eg - if my audio is 00:05:30 and my video is 00:05:20 , we might face issue with the sync.
We can try to put more black video to make it a match with the audio and then try to export.
Where do you have the media files , on a internal drive like c: or desktop? In case not , try to move the media files to desktop and then try to export.
Also instead of exporting the files to your 120GB SSD , try to export it on the desktop.
Hope it helps.
Thanks

Audio is in-sync in Premiere but out-of-sync in export

Hey everyone,
I have two audio sources and one video source in my timeline, one is linked with the video, and one was recorded externally. The external recorder, for some reason, records ever-so-slightly slower than real-time, so even when I sync up the very beginning of the hour-long video, the end will be very slightly (but noticeably) off. To fix this, I just change the speed/duration of the externally-recorded audio so the two audio sources are in-sync with each other (and the video) for the entire show. However, this is where the problem lies.
The speed change, I think, is just too small for Premiere. It ends up being about a 10-frame difference, so the speed % is less than 100.01. When I make the change, the audio is perfectly in sync when I just hit play in Premiere on the timeline. But, when I export to anything (H.264, WAV, etc) I think Premiere just rounds it to 100.01% exactly, because the audio is then out-of-sync. I've tried rendering audio first, then using previews in the export; deleting rendered audio and having it render in the export - nothing seems to work. In fact, even when I make small changes to the speed/duration so it sounds different in Premiere, the export will sound the same.
Is there some setting that will allow Premiere to change the speed/duration of audio more exactly, just like when previewing in Premiere? Or am I stuck trying to figure out the exact time difference and changing the audio in an external program?
P.S. This occurs both when exporting straight from Premiere and using AME. And CS5.

Bump?

Rate Stretch audio goes out of sync when exported.

Audio, which is rate stretched using the rate stretch tool to 100.01%, plays fine in Premiere Pro CS6. However, when exported to Encore or to MPEG-2 file, the audio is no longer stretched and becomes out of sync by the end of the video. When I play the preview in Encore, the audio is out of sync. Switch back to Premiere, it is OK. Export a MPEG-2 file and author a DVD, the audio is out of sync. Go back to Premiere, it is OK. I record the audio using a TASCAM portable recorder. I have recorded and synched audio many times and this is the first time that it does not work, on two separate Premiere projects. Any ideas on how to fix this. Even better, is there a way to record audio so that it matches the video (from a Panasonic HD AVCHD camcorder) without requiring rate stretch adjustment?

Try changing the speed with right click, Speed/Duration instead of using the Rate Stretch tool.

HELP! Audio goes out of sync after export!

OK, folks. I need your help. I have a looming deadline of THIS FRIDAY to hand this in.
I have a finished multicam edit of a show that runs 1 hr 20 min. It plays back perfectly in the timeline, all video and audio perfectly in sync. Looks and sounds exactly like what I need.
When I export the video as an H.264 file, the audio gets out of sync with the video by 13 frames! But that's not all... It doesn't happen to the entire audio track. There's about 50 minutes in the middle of the video where the audio goes out of sync. The audio at the beginning and ending of the video is lined up perfectly in sync. It's just the middle section that gets screwy.
What do I do?!
This has never happened before, and I've worked a lot with multicam in Premiere Pro CC before this. Never been an issue. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Premiere, and also deleting all media cache files, but still no dice. I also tried copying the clips into a new sequence in the same project, copying the clips into a new sequence in a NEW project, nesting the sequence... nothing works.
My setup:
MacBook Pro Retina (Rev. A)
Premiere Pro CC (latest version)
Panasonic GH3 footage in 1080p 24p AVCHD timeline
3 cameras & 1 audio WAV file in Multicam
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

OK, I figured out how to fix it:
In Premiere Pro CC, click on SEQUENCE > DELETE RENDER FILES.
Try exporting the movie again.
It worked! I exported the same sequence, and it took a long while to re-render the audio files, but when it was finished exporting the audio and video were in perfect sync. I'm not sure what caused it, but this fixed it, so hopefully anyone else having this issue can save a lot of time by reading this.
Cheers!

Audio and video out of sync after exporting sequence

I'm a FCP user since years, but not so common with HD footage. Therefore I have an issue with my finished edited movie after exporting: Video and Audio are out of sync.
My sequence settings are: HDV1080i50, 25fps, 48kHz, 16bit, Stereo. I used File-> Export-> Quicktime Movie -> Current Settings
Sequence has a duration of 61 minutes and 38 sec. I tried to find out where's the problem and exported audio and video seperated. This results in:
Video is 61 minutes and 27 sec long
Audio is 61 minutes and 38 sec long
That means exported video is shorter than original sequence.
What could that be ?

I had the same problem with a Panasonic camera, even filming at 30 fps. I was able to fix it; see [this thread|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1783029&tstart=0]. It's a frustating problem, to be sure. You might have to use Easy Setup a couple times before you get things to work properly. Not sure why that's the case.
Good luck!

Why does my audio slip out of sync when exporting?

I am exporting an HD edited video. I shot 1280x720 & editing in FCP 6.0.5. I am using APPLE PRO RES 422 1280x720 30fps 48kz . Should it be (HQ)?? - I do not select re-compress all frames or make self-contained. I just want a QT reference file to view and then burn a DVD. My clip is 43 minutes long. HOWEVER, the audio drifts out of sync BIG TIME. Why is that??
Here are my sequence settings:
1280x720 Aspect Ratio HDTV 720p (16:9)
Square Pixels
H.264
Audio at 48kHz

That's what I thought, however, when I play back the .mov file after exporting using "current settings", that's when I experience OUT OF SYNC audio. Do I ignore that and drag and drop that file into iDVD and let iDVD crunch it??? Is it just the playback of that .mov file that is out of sync?

Premiere CS3 - Audio out of sync in timeline

Audio is out of sync in the timeline.
Only occurs on mpeg clips that were captured at school (unsure of the settings used to make the capture as it was done by another student). These clips play fine outside of Premiere. This problem only occurs on my system at home I have searched and cannot seem to find a solution. I assume since it works at school and not at home that it comes down to a setting or hardware on my system causing the issue just not sure where to start. Any sugguestions would be greatly appreciated

Audio/Video out of sync when exporting to MPEG4

I am working on a project that is being edited on FCP 5.1.4
Anyhow, there is problem when exporting to MPEG4- the audio/video is out of sync.
Sequence settings show 29.97 editing base with 48 mhz sound, which is the same as the MPEG 4 settings, but they are not in sync. Anyone encounter this problem? I've never had this problem before previously.
Thanks

Hi Harm,
last time you suggested the same but I wouldn't know how to take the BM card out of the equation. I only have on station. If I export to Beta SP there is no problem.

Audio Drifting Out Of Synce when Exporting to Quicktime

Using FCS2 and all material is HDV 1080i60 with audio 48k. Everything in my sequence plays and renders fine and is in sync. When I export to quicktime movie using current settings the sound goes slowly out of sync so that by the end of the project the sync is horrible and the actual project is short 11 or so frames??
Any suggestions?? I have always done this in the past with no problems but since switching to FCS2 I have had nothing but problems when this comes up.

I had a similar problem when I exported a 20 minute video to an .flv Playback looked and sounded fine but the .flv file direct out of Final Cut was out of sync with audio. I finally used the Render Manager under tools to remove all renders for that sequence and then just re-rendered in one shot. That export was clean. I had tried to break renders and re-render them but it didn't work, but the Render Manager seemed to fix what ever caused it. I haven't noticed again since on any other projects. Good Luck.

Audio out of sync after exporting into Quicktime using current settings.

Quicktime file has audio out of sync when I export to quicktime movie using current settings.
Ok for about the first few minutes then, out of sync after about 10 minutes.
I shot the footage on tape with my Sony HVR-Z7u.
My Sequence setting is the same as the format of the footage as shown below.
Pixel Aspect Ratio: HD 1440x1080
Editing Time base: 23.98
Quicktime video settings: Compressor: HDV 1080p24
Audio Settings: Rate 48 KHz
Depth: 16bit
Clip format:
Pixel Aspect Ratio: HD 1440x1080
Vid Rate: 23.98
Compressor: HDV 1080p24
Audio Rate 48 KHz
Audio Format: 16bit

I recently moved and both of my editing machines were unplugged for a couple of days until I could get them set up. After turning them back on, the problem had disappeared. Perhaps leaving the system unplugged had allowed some of the internal components to reset? That's the only thing I can think of. At any rate, the issue is gone.

Slideshow audio gets out of sync when exported to iDvd

I made a large slideshow for a 40th anniversary party. It has 244 images & 7 songs. It is 29 min 54 seconds long. When I view the slideshow in iPhoto it works fine & the last image ends right at the end of the last song.
When I exported it to iDvd, the audio gets out of sync with the video. By the end of the first song, the video is about 2 seconds ahead. By the end of the last image, the last song is cut of by about 30 to 45 seconds. I tried exporting the slideshow directly to iDvd. I also exported it as a large movie & it did the same thing.
I'm using a 17" 1.67ghz powerbook with 1.5 gigs of ram.
I'm using OS 10.4.2.
I'm using iPhoto 5.0.4
I'm using iDvd 5.0.1
The images are scanned tiffs. I also have jpegs that I shot with my canon eos digital rebel xt.
Anybody have any ideas or work-arounds?

I suggest you either use iDVD to create two slideshows or use iMovie to get all 277 images and the 8 audio tracks into one slideshow. If you use iMovie after you get the slideshow/movie put together and completed quit iMovie. Then go into the iMovie project package (Control-click and select Show Package Contents). The find your movie in the Shared Movies folder and drag it into an open iDVD menu. This allows iDVD to to the rendering of the stills and give you a sharper image. That movie file you're dragging is a reference movie so leave it where it is and just drag it into iDVD's window.
If you can live with two separate slideshow (consider it a potty break between the two) and you don't have or need the Ken Burns effect, you can get excellent results by building the slideshows with iDVD from imported stills. The sync to audio in this method works as advertised. I like to add a blank slide at the end of the slideshow so the music fades out during a blank, black slide.

DVD & Blu-Ray audio out of sync after export

When I use FCP X's built in DVD or Blu-ray export option, about halfway through the video, the audio becomes out of sync and becomes ahead of the video.
How can I fix this?

Freddy,
You will see that I am experiencing the same issue with my DVDs and BDs per my question 3 hours prior to yours. It never was an issue until very recently. I may have a solution. Realizing that my audio was acting as if I had "Drop Frame" audio attached to "Non-Drop Frame" video, I went back to my source material to verify my acquisition settings. All elements of the production were recorded appropriately as "Drop Frame." Playback on the "Timeline" (Passé now) was perfect. No audio sync issues there. So I felt it must be some rendering setting within Compressor and the render engine. When you go to Compessor (Send to Compressor), you will gain access to the audio render settings for both DVD & BD. Typically, the "Retiming" under the "General" tab of the Audio Inspector is set to "100% of source." I Went ahead and checked off the radio button below that to render the audio at the exact duration of my program (nearly 3 hrs long). I did this for the DVD version of the program and placed it into DVD Studio Pro to replace the bad sync audio. Well wudda ya know....it worked. I haven't burned the DVD yet, but that is next. I suspect that if this works for the DVD, it may work for the BD render as well. Wish me luck. I hope this helps.
On a side note: If all else fails, render a MASSIVE master file and use that in Toast to make a BD. Not the best option, but it will get you out the door.

Audio/Video out of sync on export

I am trying to export a music video I made back to my camera but the audio gets slightly out of sync. Any explanations? thanks.

HiSoup:
Welcome to discussions!
iMovie Guru Lennart Thelander put together a pretty good list here:
The problem:
http://www.dvformat.com/htm/features/2000/800/dv_formatfaq.htm
(Scroll down about two thirds to "What's the difference between locked and unlocked audio?" )
The solution:
Always use 16-bit/48kHz audio.
