Topic: offset between sound and image when editing video

Hi,

I don't know where to search for a specific problem so I ask the question here, sorry to bother in case it's not crunchbang-specific.

I have been using Kdenlive for a small video editing project few months ago, and had an issue with the video playback within the software: sometimes an offset appeared between the sound and image. Because of this my timing seemed to be wrong at some point, but after exporting the project into an avi file the timing was actually OK.

I have started to use blender recently, and same kind of problem appeared, even when using proxys as advised by rfquerin: http://crunchbanglinux.org/forums/topic … -in-linux/
In current case source videos are flv format, downloaded from the Internet. In previous project I had converted them into wmv before processing in kdenlive.

Has anyone got any idea about a potential cause of the problem ? I am thinking of maybe problem in source files (keyframes ?), or memory (I'm doing this on the vaio, 1GB RAM), or maybe some settings but I don't know at all about video editing so no idea about where to start searching.

Thanks for your help.

Bye the way, I would like to share some news about these software:

A new version of Kdenlive (0.7.6) was released few days ago, fixing many software crashed (I tried it quickly, it crashes less than before but still happens).

A new version of blender (2.49b) has been released on September, it fixes amongst other bugs the crash which occurred in ubuntu 9.04 when pressing render button. http://www.blender.org/development/rele … 49-update/
