Updated FCP 5.1 to 5.1.2 - Audio and video now out of sync

I just noticed in my software update that FCP needed to be updated. So I updated the program.
Now when I open exisiting projects the audio and video are out of sync even though they appear perfectly in sync in the timeline. Has anyone else had this problem? The problem also persists when cutting clips in the timeline. I will use the razor tool to make the cut and I cut the clip on a ceratain frame in the timeline and then in the viewer the clip was really cuts a second or two later. Does anyone know what is going on?
Very furstrating to say the least. Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Clay

I am still wondering why you're recommending that I use an external drive for this project.
Because the internal has more than enough to do running Mac OS X and the applications. It is constantly writing files. While DV video is at the lower end of the scale, it is still asking a lot of the drive's read and write head.
I always used external drives, but we had many problems with delays and processing problems.
At the very least, you should be using FireWire external drives. USB is no good for video as it delivers data in packets, not the sustained stream that video needs. The drives must also be formatted as Mac OS Extended. Windows FAT 16 of FAT 32 formatted drives have file size limits of 2 and 4 GB respectively. Anything larger is segemented and can cause problems on a Mac.

  • Strange export result in FCP 7- audio and video output not in sync anymore

    I have a problem exporting edited videomaterial. After export audio and video they are not in sync anymore. There's a difference of 8 sec when exporting audio and video separatly. Movie is total 61 min long.
    Video and sequence settings are HDV1080i50, 25fps, 48khz, 16 bit, mono.
    What could that be ?

    Well now that I look at all the clips in FCP more closely I see some clips from the same tape are in sync and others are out of sync.  And one section of tape which I captured twice was in sync on one clip and out of sync on the other.  So it can't be the tapes.
    Maybe the sync problem is caused by not coordinating the tape playing and FCP capturing properly every time! So I will try re-capturing the problem sections of tape.

  • FCP 7.0.2 - audio and video out of sync after QT export! HELP!

    I loaded a self-contained movie of my project and exported it through Compressor. However, half way through the video, the audio and video went out of sync.
    This has never happened before — only since I upgraded to 10.6.3 and FCP 7.0.2/Compressor 3.5.2
    HELP!

    (P.S. I did change the Settings of the FCP from 720p60 to 720p30 about half way through the project, but that shouldn't affect the export.)
    About the time you changed FCP Easy Setup from 720p60 to 720p30 DURING Export?
    As you stated on this post:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2384569&tstart=0
    I wouldn't think that's the best time to make a major change.

    No.  purchases are forever tied to the apple ID used to buy them.  Delete them and buy your own copies.

  • Does 2 firewire audio and video interface can work together  on FCP ?

    hello,
    My audio interface is a TC Electronic Konnekt 24D
    my video interface is a Canopus ADVC 110
    my hard drives are plugged in firewire too
    and I use Final Cut Pro 5.0.4
    So, the konnekt is recognized by FCP only when the Canopus is not plugged. And even then, the audio sometimes drop out and sometimes causes the app to crash, so that I have to trash the preferences
    When I plug the Canopus, the Konnekt 24D is recognised by OS X but not FCP
    I want to use the voice over tool with the konnekt 24D, so what should I do ?
    Does 2 firewire audio and video interface can work together ?
    If so, maybe I only have a driver problem from TC Electronic.
    But if not, I have to change this interface. Let me know if only RME, MOTU, Presonus and Edirol work, as it is said on apple's webpage for hardware compatibility
    thanks
    eMac G4 1,25 Ghz Mac OS X (10.3.9)
    eMac G4 1,25 Ghz 1 Go RAM DDR   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    The 1082 does show up as a possible input when I open
    the VO tool.
    Ok. So an audio interface can be plugged to FCP without crashing the app. Because of the Konnekt driver problem, I wasn't shure of this.
    I use my Aja box for export & external monitoring.
    All my audio sources run back into the Tascam and I
    use the analog mixer in the 1082 to monitor different
    sources.
    When I view external video, the audio follows it to
    keep sync.
    that's exactly what I want with other I/O interfaces. I'd like to monitor video with the canopus ADVC 110, and monitor audio with the Konnekt 24D (or another interface if this one is not compatible)
    I also imput dailies with a deck or a camera (DV or HDV) but that's not the point here.
    I want to imput audio with the Konnekt 24D because of its audio quality. Not audio sync to video dailies. But voice over, in sync with FCP video playback (for me, tha ADVC 110)

  • Audio buzz and video cut-out caused by volume shadow service errors during updates and other services that create shadow copies

    I have this issue and see throughout the Internet that my problem is shared by large numbers of other Windows 7 users, and a few Windows 8 users.
    I also see that Microsoft has not addressed the issue.
    I've been troubleshooting the problem for 13 months and across 3 separate hard drives on 2 separate computers, with the help of tech escalation from both Carbonite and Dell (whom I wanted to eliminate as causes, and who have been kind enough to assist even
    after being eliminated as causes because they evidently care about customer service).
    Over 13 months we have run system diagnostics, reinstalls and repairs to no avail.  We have been able to reproduce the event in the absence of every attached device, every installed program, every subscribed service, and every hardware type and configuration. 
    We have visited chat rooms showing that this is a widespread problem (e.g., http://superuser.com/questions/630033/audio-video-glitch-when-shadow-copy-service-starts), and that even professional server administrators simply consign themselves to VSS being "the
    bane of backup software" (http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/229743-problem-with-vss-writer-system-writer-timed-out).
    Yet regardless of the computer or the configuration, the problem persists.  It causes characteristic and alarming disk write error and memory spikes on the Resource Monitor that can be traced to huge numbers on the System 4 and VSSVC.exe processes, occurring
    every time the Volume Shadow Copy Service and Application Experience create a restore point during an automatic update of Adobe, antivirus, etc.; and one can even provoke an event simply by manually creating a restore point, which has the bonus of triggering
    an 8220 notice that the Volume Shadow Service has run out of time while deleting files.  And the only advice I've seen from MS is that this is a "normal condition."
    It is not normal to be unable to enjoy audio and video.  And it is certainly not normal for one's PC to continually degrade with every update until it becomes unable to update and must be replaced. 
    I am on my 3rd computer with this problem (different type and configuration each time), and Dell has offered me an upgrade to Windows 8 in the hopes that the problem will not recur there.  But I see from Microsoft's tech chat that Windows 8 users are reporting
    the problem as well (http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_8-pictures/after-upgrading-to-windows-8-pro-there-is-an/813432c2-14f1-463f-bba3-ad322ceb6e00).
    Please, please post a real answer to this problem.  Thank you.

    Hi,
    Above all I understand the frustration as a same issue persists for a very long time.
    At first I'm thinking if it is directly related to the application CrashPlan some customers mentioned in one of the threads you provided. However I then noticed that you said it could be also reproduced by creating a System Restore point.
    Currently I cannot find a Windows 7 system so I used a Windows 8.1 laptop (also Dell) for testing.
    I tried to play an online video and also a local video with creating a restore point in the middle. However I failed to reproduce the same behavior. 
    The following screenshot was captured in second test (play a local video):
    I cannot confirm if it is because we have a large physical memory (8GB), or Windows 8.1 resolved this issue. From the screenshot, memory is not spiked (actually it is almost not changed).
    So in current situation you can test to enlarge the size of physical memory (and virtual memory) for test if available. And as Dell provided a Windows 8 system, you can try it before and after installing Windows 8.1.
    As a support engineer I also hope to help fix the issue or at least find out the cause. Later I will try to find a Windows 7 system for testing as well. 
    In addition, please understand that as the issue occurs mostly in Windows 7, though it seems related to VSS, it is still a Windows client system issue. So you can post the question to Windows 7 forum for further information. Here is the link:

  • My synchronized clips (audio and video) have lost their compound clip icon after I bought the full version of FCP X, why is that?

    I have noticed a few changes to my FCP workflow after installing FCPX from the trial version I had before. I've noticed that when I sync audio and video files together via Clip > Synchronize Clips.. the icon at the top left corner of the thumnail is no longer there as it was in the trial version. I also have to right click and select 'open in timeline' to work on the files. I much preferred clicking on the thumnail's icon in the event library and it opening up in the timeline. Also Stabilization is missing from my video effects! How odd.

    I no longer have the trial version this is the point. Bought the 'release' version about 6 weeks ago. Still doesn't explain why the stabilization option randomly appears for some clips and not for others. Also would like to know if I can get the compound icon back on the thumbnails for synchonized clips.

  • FCP Crashing When Printing to Tape Using Audio Follows Video Setting

    I'm trying to Print to Tape using the Audio Follows Video setting from FCP. I am using a Sony DSR-11 Deck and a Mac Pro. I was able to Print to Tape successfully earlier today, and I have done it successfully many times before. Every time I try to Print to Tape with the Audio Follows Video setting, FCP crashes. Actually, every time I play audio from the timeline using the Audio Follows Video setting, FCP crashes. I have deduced that the problem must be with the Audio Follows Video setting, but I'm not sure what to do to correct the problem. Thanks in advance for the assistance.

    Well, what version of FCP are you running?
    Final Cut Studio 5
    How is your media stored? Number of hard drives, how full are they, ect?
    I have two hard drives. One is 250GB the other is 750GB. I have my applications on the 250GB drive. All of my media is on the 750GB drive. My computer is brand new, so I haven't even come close to filling the drives.
    What is the format of the media you are trying to send out to the DSR?
    I'm going Firewire out of the Mac Pro to the DSR11 to a Mini-DV tape.
    Have you tried doing a crash record?
    I would rather not do a crash record if at all possible. I know that is a back up option, but I also know that my system is capable of working properly.
    I really appreciate you trying to help me out on this.

  • Audio and Video Stuttering since update to Lion

    Hi all,
    since updating to Lion my macbook has had the issue that when you play any kind of sound or video whether it be itunes or streaming online, the sound cuts in and out and video cuts in and out. Is anyone else having this issue? Does anyone have any suggestion to fix this problem?
    Thanks.

    Okay, so I've tried it while unplugging my laptop and using VLC Media Player instead and that seems to work. The only hangup I have while plugging it back in to charge is that I get tiling like what you see on a cable box. 
    Surely there has to be a way to where I can watch movies feasibly on my laptop without having to unplug it.

  • MacPro update Mini DisplayPort both audio and video?

    Apple confirmed to Ars that the just-updated MacBook Pros will pass both video and audio signals to an HDTV or receiver when using an miniDP to HDMI adapter.
    Just wondering if this is true or if anyone has tried it out yet?

    Hello Rick! Thanks again for the reply. I took the one adapter back but at the time they had no other new ones to replace it with so I just took the refund. I was back in town at my brothers so i checked them out again and they had 3 brand new never opened adapters. I bought it again. It actually worked.
    My bro had the audio splitter cables so I connected them and it did work. So not sure if the adapter I bought has the audio capability or not because I used the other audio out on the MBP. The one where it is headphone to RCA..whatever those connections are called.
    I will try the adapter on a Toshiba 26" TV I have at home with just the adapter and see if audio comes through or not. I hope it will.

  • Hello. I went to Tools, Plug-ins and check for updates as I do once a week, every week, and yet now, after checking, Firefox says 'no plug-ins detected'. My plug-ins are still all there in Tools, Add-ons, so why am I getting this message?

    I check my plug-is for updates once a week, yet as of today, despite the fact that my plug-ins are all still there in Tools, plug-ins, after I click on the find updates button, I get the usual screen that tells me Firefox is checking for updates to my plug-ins, but then I get the message saying 'No plug-ins detected.' This has never happened before and it means I can't check for updates to my plug-ins.

    There is a fault with the plugin check service, Mozilla are looking into it.
