I can't find any info about how to use this function in the MEP pdf.Let's say the video is "ahead" of the audio as someone is talking. Which way should the frame be adjusted? To the right or left? If anyone has used this function, please enlighten me!
Thsnks.
Agree! You can't have "Audio-Video Offset" in a video program. 😀 What you can have is "Audio Offset", which is what this box actually is, and what it should be called.
Knowing that, you're half way there. To "advance" the audio ie when it is behind the video, click the either the 1-frame or 5-frame buttons on the right of centre (the ones with the >> arrows pointing to the right). You'll see the timeline audio object moving to the left. This may seem counter-intuitive, but it means that, by moving to the left, it will play earlier, and so achieve what you want, which is to advance the audio.
Vice-versa for retarding the audio.
A tip regarding playing and stopping the video when checking the sync: make sure you use the Stop button and not the space bar. Stop will always return the Play marker to where you had it positioned initially, whereas you might have the spacebar stopping the video in it's present position, which is annoying because you can't reposition the Play maker unless you close the Audio Offset box and start again.
Nothing came up under a search for "offset" in the PDF here either. 😎
