| |  Sound not in sync with video- Help!
Hi, I'm new to all this video shooting/ editing lark. When I transfer video files to the my computer for editing the sound of people's voices is not in sync with their lip movements! What am I doing wrong? My set up is as follows:
Samsung VP-D353 transfer via USB 2.0 to a system running an AMD Athalon processor with 1.5 Gig RAM, 200GB External hard drive (again USB). I'm using ulead video studio 9.0 (I think) but I'm moving to Adobe Premier Elements.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Cheers,
Jon

Hi and welcome. The first thing you should do, is throw away your USB lead and transfer by firewire (your cameras' other output socket). USB transfer is far to slow for video and these problems seem to crop up because of that. One other thing is to try to capture to your internal drive instead of that external one. The same USB speed problem is most likely affecting that too.

You could of course sync it up manually? Just unlink video and audio.

Yeah but the name of the game is sustained data rate - and here's where Firewire overcomes USB 2.0.

Fire wire was designed ESESIALY for video along with other HIGH SPEED hardware.
