Timing is out after encode

    I have just put together a 4-minute video in Premier Pro 1.5. I have had a lot of problems exporting my work; after around a dozen attempts I was left with an AVI which had timing problems. (Much of the video consists of a series of stills synchronised with fast music. These stills were out of sync after exporting the video.)

    I read, in these forums, about using Nandub to reinterleave the video, which solved the timing problem. However, after converting the video into DVD format, using ConvertXtoDVD, the result had brought back the timing problem. I even checked the DVD on a standalone player, but with no joy.

    I have no idea as to how I can save my work from Premier Pro 1.5! The video plays with no problems in the Premier Pro work area; I just cannot save it as a single video file. I even tried a desktop video recorder at one point, but the result had the timing problem.

    Please could someone advise me as to how I can save my work as a single file, and preferably as a DVD, without these timing problems?

    What format is the music and what are you saving the sound as?

    The sound is direct from two CDs, and is in WAV. The video came out as one AVI file, apart from when another export option was selected when, annoyingly, video and sound were saved as two separate files.

    Premier Pro must have a few output options other than AVI. If you want to go to DVD it seems MPEG-2 or DVD out would make more sense.

    To export to a different format, choose File > Export > Media Encoder.

    This allows you to export files as Windows Media, Real Media, Quicktime, and a variety of MPEG formats.


    For output to DVD, choose File > Export > Export to DVD.

    What were these 2 files? Assuming standard elementary streams you could try one of the free authoring apps out there.

    The tiny ReJig's DVD Author/Multiplex feature might work on these files and it has the ability to adjust audio delay.

    Or:

    Well you could try this app on the AVI (it doesn't re-encode).

    1. Add all source files you need
    2. select video source file (or files, if you want to concatenate several AVI files to one) and click "generate data source"
    3. select all audio streams you want to include
    4. start
