New user here, please dont chastise me too harshly. I did a search and couldnt find an answer to this. When I import a video clip off my hard drive (Mpeg), it speeds up the video and audio by about 45%. I cant figure out why.

Part A, Part B, and Part D.

Maybe a screen shot of your edit space.
Tell us what the source video is. Where did you get the video.

A - PowerDirector v9 Ultra64 32bit

B - see attachment

D- I started a new project and I hit the import media button and selected the saved video file from my hard drive that I received from a friend on dropbox. Its an mpeg format that plays just fine on windows media player, but speeds up on the PD. Video and audio both. A 39 second clip plays in 21 seconds.

Thanks in advance, I hope this clarifies it.

Your computer is barely enough to edit SD video.

You have several codecs on your computer that are MPEG, you may be having a conflict with the codecs.

A converter to a different format way work.

Or it could be the header information in the file is wrong.

Did you try a converter to some other format, such as AVI or WMV? Carl312: Windows 10 64-bit 8 GB RAM,AMD Phenom II X4 965 3.4 GHz,ATI Radeon HD 5770 1GB,240GB SSD,two 1TB HDs.
