Gaps in clips

Hi
I've scanned through loads of posts and couldn't see this problem. After many years of using Studio 9 I have had a new machine that came with version 7. I have imported 3 video files that I dragged to the timeline to produce one video. However there is a split second pause between the videos. I have tried dragging each section across to the previous one but I cant get rid of it. Any body have any ideas, never had this issue with studio.
thanks

Dave

Hi Dave,
First thing would be to make sure your version is updated with the latest patch, but I don't know exactly how you do that with a bundled version. I'm sure others will advise.

You don't say whether this 'pause' happens on final produced videos or on preview?


Cheers

Sorry just in the preview at the moment I just figured it would be on the finished version as well may give it a try. As for the patch I'll have a look I'm pretty certain it did a check for updates when I first tried it out but I'll check again thanks

Hi Dave,

The preview mode doesn't always represent what you will see in the final product of your production. If you're using hi-def clips, sometimes you'll see jittery video, or other odd things in preview mode. Try "producing" the clips as a playable clip to see if you still experience the gaps.

What type of video clips did you import? It's possible that PD7 has a problem with working with a particular type of file format. Also, make sure that you are running your clips under the proper TV format. Are you playing back your clips in PAL or NTSC?

You can change this by going to preferences (found in the edit pull down menu) and selecting the proper format.
