Dafydd,
I had a few minutes to continue on my project. I had three still shots between two .m2ts video clips about 10 seconds long. I decided to reverse the squence of the three stills. As usual, I have a zoom through the three stills which each are closer - telephoto - to the subject to mimic a long zoom through the three. Changing the order of these required me to reverse the magic motion of each and again I used the regular fade transition between them, no overlap mode. I used the constant-gain transistion at the end of the first audio and the beginning of the other. Everthing on the tracks looked correct.
When I previewed that portion of the project, I thought I heard the audio of the second video start too soon. So I saved, got out of the project, got back in. Sure enough, the audio of the second clip had slipped upstream a couple of seconds. I locked the video and selected the audio to move it back where it should be.
Normally, I make a number of those edits and at some point I start to see and hear things look a little wierd. When I get out of the project and back in again, I see an accumulation of slipped, overlapped audio portions and sometimes one is on top of another. Also at times the audios get relinked to the wrong videos.
Because PD displays things as I think it should be versus the real jumble of audio clips that exists at the moment, I don't think of getting out and back in. Why should I have to?
Anyway, this keeps happening over and over again. This project runs about 45 minutes long and has about 100 video clips and about 200 stills, all with mostly simple fade transistions. Could this really be just my system being inadequate? Am I the only one reporting this problem? Sigh.
