Transistions

When I add a transition it moves the audio so its not synced with the video. How do I not get that to happen?

Hi

Provided the audio remains  linked to the video it will stay in synchronization  after a transition whether or not you choose to overlap the clips or use freeze frames.  Using the overlapping feature the sound track is also overlapped between the clips and overall it will become shorter with the transition causing "losing out" of the sound (and video),  nevertheless synchronization before and after the transition will remain correct.

If the two clips to be transitioned are parts of the same clip..i.e. a clip has been split and a section removed and the two remaining parts are brought together for transitioning, VP will always use a freeze frame transition. AFAIK in this case you will not get the choice. Synchrinization before and after the transition will remain correct.

If you have unlinked the audio (or the video)  then a transition using overlapping will be out of synchronization after the transition. On the other hand  a freeze frame transition will remain synchronized as in effect no overlapping is performed.

Clips that that have been synchronized to  a separate soundtrack will obviously get out of sync if they are subsequently split and an overlapping transition is inserted. If this is the case then use a freeze frame transition.

I suggest that you check what sort of transition you have used. If it's overlapping then replace it with a freeze frame transition and see if that restores order.
