Hi there,

There used to be the known problem of audio drifting out of sync on long
video files. I've been using Sony's DVgate for the last little while,
which will split the video into 10 minute segments, so I don't get any
drift. But the other day, I digitized 3 miniDV tapes and saved them all
as one file per tape.... at about 20 minutes in, the audio started to
drift and by the end of each tape the audio was out of sync almost a
full second of time.

Is this common? How do people without DVgate digitize their audio and
keep the sound in sync? If I digitize in Premiere, as one large file,
will the sound be out of sync as well?

I would have thought this would have been corrected by now. That
explains why DVgate splits up the video into chunks.
