coecolin Posted January 7, 2013 Report Posted January 7, 2013 I have a problem with the timeline. I have attached a zip file of part of the project that I am working on. If you play the sequence from the begining everything is OK. Now alter the position or transition of one or two slides and then place the cursor a couple of slides in front of the altered one and click play on the mini player or the full screen button and the the sequence is out of sync from this point on. Then play the sequence from the start and everything is OK. Maybe I have not got the settings right but I have tried many. I have also tried this on my laptop and have the same problem. My desktop is running Windows 7 home premium 32 bit and the laptop is running the same but 64 bit. I am using PTE version 7.5.2. Hopefully somebody will be able to help me.Regards,Colin.PS. If the attachment fails to show perhaps somebody may be able to tell me how to go about it. Quote
davegee Posted January 7, 2013 Report Posted January 7, 2013 Colin,How big is your attachment - there is a limit?If it fits the bill then go to Full Editor - Click to Attach Files and when the file is uploaded click on the Add to Post on the right.DG Quote
davegee Posted January 7, 2013 Report Posted January 7, 2013 Colin,Do you have Synchronise Sound Track etc ticked in Project Options Advanced?DG Quote
coecolin Posted January 7, 2013 Author Report Posted January 7, 2013 Dave, Many thanks for your response. I have got the Synchronise Sound track ticked in Project Options. Thank you for the info on how to attach files, The file I tried to attach was way over the limit, so I will get around to adjusting it tonight and try again.Many thanks,Colin. Quote
coecolin Posted January 7, 2013 Author Report Posted January 7, 2013 Dave,I have got the file size down to the limit which is only five slides including section of music which is not enough to create the problem. Any ideas.Regards,Colin. Quote
davegee Posted January 7, 2013 Report Posted January 7, 2013 Create a free account at DropBox or post at Media Fire and let us download the larger project which shows the problem.Describe the problem as accurately as you can and tell us what you think is out of sync?https://www.dropbox.com/planshttp://www.mediafire.com/I'm not a big fan of mediafire because of the suspicious adverts.DG Quote
coecolin Posted January 7, 2013 Author Report Posted January 7, 2013 Dave,I will do as you suggest and put the zip file into Dropbox. Only I will not be able to do this until Wednesday as I am out all day tomorrow.Colin. Quote
coecolin Posted January 9, 2013 Author Report Posted January 9, 2013 Dave,I have created a zip file of a section of the project that I am working on. If you click between the end of the gray bar and slide 5 in the mini player you will find that it runs OK. Now click from the beginning in the mini player and you should find that it runs out of sync. Also if you click preview it also runs out of sync. I downloaded dropbox but could not get on with it , so as I had a mediafire account I have used that.Regards,Colinhttp://www.mediafire.com/?5u7lk6zkmieia3x Quote
davegee Posted January 9, 2013 Report Posted January 9, 2013 Hi Colin,I think that you need to open your music file up in your Audio Editor and resave - making sure that it is saved CBR (Constant Bit Rate)?I opened it in Audition and it was 38 seconds - I saved it as a 160 KBPS CBR MP3 at 44100 and inserted it into the project.The new time was 41 seconds and I had to alter the slide positions a little.After that the sync was perfect from any position in the show.DG Quote
coecolin Posted January 9, 2013 Author Report Posted January 9, 2013 Dave,Many many thanks Dave, I use Cool Edit for music and checked the sample rate and found it to be 48000. So I reloaded the music and saved at 44100 and everything works OK now.Thank you once again.Colin. Quote
