I suspect it a similar response to mine the first time I discovered about DV
audio being unlocked.
Being in the industry for some years now I immediately expected there to be
all sorts of sync issues.
Once I'd investigated and discovered that the unlocked actually means
loosely locked I was less worried and for all the years I've been using DV
in post I've never had an issue with sync related to unlock DV audio. It's
always been another post problem.
There are often issues with DVD recording and audio sync slippage (not here
at VET thank goodness) but it's not always DV related and I'm sure it's not
unlocked audio related.
