Edius 4.6 and HDV - prob Can't Post

Hello everyone,
I am experiencing a new problem - or one that I haven't noticed before. I have the Canopus Edius 4.61 vers software.

I have edited clips to the beat of music and every time I play the segment back, the music beat falls in a different spot???? I know it sounds crazy because I haven't moved any clips or the music - yet when I go to play the segment it is just a little different every time I play it. I tried rendering it to a clip (s) and every clip I render is the same way as the beat falls in a different spot on the clips?!!?

It's almost like the clips are being time remapped - but I've checked and I don't have the remap option on the clips. Is there a setting in the application or hardware setup that I might have wrong? I also noticed that every once in a while the clip looks like is "jumps". The intermittent "jump" may or may not be related to the timing problem with the music and clips? I really think I have a setting wrong and someone can help me PLEASE.

This project was captured HD and edited HD. I will be putting it out to standard DVD and blu-ray once I get this problem figured out.

Thanks for ANY suggestions on how to figure this out? TonyUnsure

Are you by chance using an MP3 music file, if so try converting it to a wav.

I see it's been months since this post- But I had that happen to me- using mp3s from Amazon.com ...
I had to render them out to wavs to get them to sit on the timeline properly-
it's NOT you .. definatly the mp3!
if the wav doesnt work - order it from iTunes... I never have a problem with their files!

Thanks for the info -- We think we have the problem sorted out. It was a couple things - one of them was the mp3 and WAV problem, but also the music was 44k and the project 48k - which made a difference. So now I make sure it is a WAV 48k and then I also link it with the first clip.
