Re: Music Video - Audio Drift (Importing Drop or Non Drop?)

As good as Bouke is with numbers, the fact is that Panasonic's P2 cameras record at 23.976 (AKA 23.98), which is confusing given the fact that they chose to name it 24p. Especially since 24p is a legitimate frame rate used since the dawn of film.

There is no issue with pulldown since there is none. You shot 24pN.

I agree with the fact that it is your audio that is giving you the problem. If you modify the video to match bad audio you are only going to make to problem worse down the road.

Restamping the audio will not help since this is not a 24p/23.876p issue.

I would take Jon's suggestion first, followed by the freezing and marking the edge of the CD trick! :). After that, try freezing the Avid for 48 hours and cover it in black plastic to avoid light leak. Also, try covering your head with foil. It works for me.
