I have the same problem. I also notice that the videos have occasional 'pixelation' at scene changes that are as if the conversion to m2ts from WTV is bit rate limited at times. By scene change I mean those in the source, not scenes created by any editing.

It was one possibliity that the Nvidia 470GTX hardware was an issue, so I tried my older 8800GT with the same results. It is interesting to see that you have ATI video hardware with the same problem. I also tried PD9 on a clean install of W7-32 with the same results.

I also notice that the file that results from the PD9 conversion from the WTV file will not play properly in windows media player.

This issue has been brought up in a couple of previous threads too. Perhaps you can also contact tech support and try to get this up the list on items on which to work.

The workaround here is un-installing PD9 and re-installing PD8, then waiting for either driver or PD9 fixes to appear.

When converting from WTV with 720p source, the gradual offset of video and audio sync that occurs in PD8 is fixed in PD9. If the file is first converted to dvr-ms, that gradual loss of audio sync still occurs in PD9.

I really do like the direction that PD9 is taking, and the new interface is much better; so I hope a patch is available soon so I can use the new software I purchased.

If you find a resolution to this problem, let me know!

I7-950, 6Gb ram, W7-64, 470GTX

Thanks Ken,

I guess the good thing is I didn't shell out the coin for the programme yet & can wait until it gets fixed.

Cheers
